Crossovers in film? Nah, everybody does that. A crossover in real life? Now that sounds like a perfect Sunday idea from Ayan Mukerji. The ace director managed to bring the stars of his own films together for a casual outing. Yesterday, excitement surged when it was revealed that the cast of 'War 2' and 'Brahmastra' met for a dinner night.
'War 2' Meets 'Brahmastra'
Last night, a paparazzi account shared a video of Ranbir Kapoor and Jr NTR stepping out of the car, both twinning in black. The two then waited for Ranbir's wife, Alia Bhatt, to join them. While we were thrilled to see these three together, we didn't know we were in for a bigger treat. Just after Alia, Ranbir, and Jr NTR arrived at Veronica's Restaurant, another car pulled up, and filmmakers Karan Johar and Ayan Mukerji emerged.

Shortly after, another video was shared on the paparazzi account showing lovebirds Saba Azad and Hrithik Roshan arriving for the dinner party. In the video, Hrithik could be seen wearing a striped grey shirt, dark grey pants, and a brown cap, while Saba held his hand, sporting a white crop top, pants, and heels.
About 'War 2'
'War 2,' the sixth film of the Yash Raj Films (YRF) spy universe, is directed by Ayan Mukerji. The film pits superstar Hrithik Roshan against NTR Jr in a bloody showdown of epic proportions. It also stars Kiara Advani, while the music is composed by Pritam.
A report by mid-day.com states that the two actors will also engage in a dance-off in the new thriller. While it was a foregone conclusion that the Aditya Chopra production would include a dance number featuring Hrithik, it seems the makers have devised a situation to involve Taarak's character in showcasing his nimble-footed skills as well, especially after his smooth moves in the Oscar-winning song, âNaatu Naatu,' from SS Rajamouli's âRRR' (2022), co-starring Ram Charan.
Reportedly, Pritam has created a pacy track that is said to be one of the high points of the thriller. Considering that Hrithik's song, âJai Jai Shivshankar,' with Tiger Shroff in âWar' (2019), was a chartbuster, the makers are leaving no stone unturned in upping the ante in all aspects, from scale and action to emotions and music.
