War 2 Teaser: Did Makers 'Copy' Hrithik Roshan's Action Sequence From Thalapathy Vijay's Film?

From Hrithik Roshan-Jr NTR's face-off to Kiara Advani's first-ever bikini shot, War 2 has created an explosion on the internet, capturing everyone's attention. Amid the heaping praises, one of the Twitter users spotted an uncanny resemblance between one of Hrithik's action sequences in War 2 and a similar kind of sequence from Thalapathy Vijay starrer 'Bairavaa' (2017).

In that particular scene, Hrithik is seen flexing with a sword-like weapon and spinning it in his hands. The user attached Thalapthy Vijay's scene from Bairavaa where he performed the same stunt. The Twitter user captioned his tweet, "I've seen this one ! (sic)"

The Twitter post has sparked plagiarism accusations against the makers. Adding fuel to the fire, one of the users pointed out that Anl Arasu, War 2's action choreographer, had also choreographed the stunts for Thalapathy Vijay in Bairavaa.

Reacting to the tweet, one of the users replied, "two movies fight master same fight master -Anal arasu (sic)".

A part of the netizens also expressed their disappointment over the VFX of War 2 and called it "inconsistent" and "underwhelming".

War 2 Release Date

Directed by Ayan Mukerji and produced by Aditya Chopra's Yash Raj Films, War 2 is scheduled to have a grand theatrical release on August 14, 2025. The film will be released in three languages - Hindi, Telugu and Tamil.
