Actor Hrithik Roshan exchanged banter with Jr NTR on the latter's 41st birthday on Monday. The two actors will share screen space in the upcoming action thriller War 2.
"A very Happy Birthday to you @tarak9999! Here's to another incredible spin around the sun. This time we spin together! I hope by the end of it the master is proud of the student in the kitchen! Haha! Stay healthy. Stay blessed,” wrote Hrithik on his official X handle, referring to their culinary adventures during the filming of War 2.
Jr NTR was prompt in his reply to Hrithik’s birthday wish for him. “Hahaha... Thank you so much, Sir. Had a congenial 'War' on sets with you. Can't wait to be back with you and spin around the Sun together... As they say, when the student is ready, the teacher will appear, and you are ready,” he wrote on the microblogging site.
A sequel to Siddharth Anand’s 2019 film War starring Hrithik and Tiger Shroff, War 2 will be helmed by Ayan Mukherji. The shooting of the film, also featuring Kiara Advani, is still in progress.
A brief preview of War 2 was featured in the credits of Salman Khan's Tiger 3 (2023). It is supposedly set to release in the theatres in August 2025.
