Hrithik Roshan Addresses War 2’s Underwhelming Performance
In a rare and honest interview, Bollywood superstar Hrithik Roshan opened up about War 2’s box office struggles, admitting the film may have been “too ambitious.” The actor, known for his blockbuster hits, didn’t hesitate to acknowledge the sequel’s shortcomings, even joking about the situation.
War 2, a follow-up to the 2019 hit War, reunited Roshan with director Siddharth Anand. Despite high expectations, the film saw a sharp drop in collections after its opening week, leaving fans and analysts surprised.
“My Movie Just Didn’t Connect” – Hrithik’s Honest Take
Speaking to a leading entertainment portal, Hrithik reflected on the film’s performance with surprising ease. “Sometimes, you give your all, but the film just doesn’t resonate. My movie just didn’t connect, and that’s okay. Not every film can be a War or Krrish—some are learning experiences,” he said.
The actor suggested that the team may have overcomplicated the plot. “We went big—maybe too big. The action and scale were massive, but perhaps the emotional core got lost.”
Hrithik’s Humble Response Wins Praise
Unlike many stars who deflect blame, Roshan took full responsibility for War 2’s performance. “If the audience didn’t love it, I accept that. No excuses,” he stated. Fans on social media applauded his maturity, calling his reaction “refreshing.”
What’s Next for Hrithik Roshan?
Despite War 2’s lukewarm reception, Hrithik remains a top draw in Bollywood. Upcoming projects include Krrish 4 and a potential collaboration with Sanjay Leela Bhansali. He also hinted at exploring more nuanced roles, saying, “Maybe it’s time for something quieter and deeper.”
Industry Experts Weigh In
Trade analysts noted that while War 2 wasn’t a flop, its returns didn’t match its budget. “Hrithik’s star power is intact—one underperformer won’t change that,” said analyst Taran Adarsh.
Director Siddharth Anand remained optimistic, calling the film a risk that didn’t fully pay off but emphasized growth from the experience.
Final Thoughts
Hrithik Roshan’s candidness about War 2’s shortcomings showcases his professionalism. As fans eagerly await his next move, one thing is clear: his ability to learn and adapt keeps him at the top of the game.
