Produced by YRF, War is receiving unanimous love and appreciation from critics and audiences alike for delivering a never seen before action spectacle and a superb story with twists and turns that keeps audiences at the edge of their seats till the end.
On its opening day, YRF's War made history as it collected Rs. 53.35 crore, the biggest ever opening for a Hindi film! It also registered the highest 1st week of all time in the history of Hindi films in India and Worldwide by crossing 350 crore GBOC (Gross Box-Office). Despite the arrival of Priyanka Chopra and Farhan Akhtar's The Sky Is Pink in the cinemas, this Siddharth Anand directorial remained the first choice of the cine-goers.
Roshan now moves to the unkempt space again as he's strongly rumoured to star in the remake of Satte Pe Satta, a comedy about seven brothers and their impoverished lifestyles. Shroff embarks on another larger-than-life potboiler, Baaghi 3, where the action and the stakes would be higher. He also has the Rambo remake with Anand himself.
Baaghi 3 and Rambo are slated to release on March 6 and October 2, 2020, respectively. Farah Khan's Satte Pe Satta is likely to release in the first half of 2021.
