Trust me you have NO idea what’s in store. Ready?”
Jr NTR swiftly responded, accepting the challenge with equal gusto: “Thank you in advance @iHrithik sir!!! Can’t wait to hunt you down to give you a special return gift Kabir… #War2.”
The exchange has sent fans into a frenzy, anticipating the first official look at “War 2,” directed by Ayan Mukerji.
