We will make a sequel: War director Siddharth Anand confirms on second release anniversary

“We knew that if War works, we will make a sequel. [Aditya Chopra, producer] and I have shared some thoughts on how to take it forward. We will hopefully start it by next year. War 2 is a big responsibility, and we need normalcy [to be restored] before we can dive into it,” he told Mid-Day.

“We have not yet thought whether Hrithik and Tiger will come back, or whether we’ll rope in a different cast," he said.

War emerged as one of the biggest hits of 2019.

The action movie was produced by Aditya Chopra under his banner Yash Raj Films.

The film stars Hrithik Roshan and Tiger Shroff in the lead roles while Vaani Kapoor, Ashutosh Rana, Anupriya Goenka and Soni Razdan play supporting roles.

The movie hit the silver screen on Gandhi Jayanti.

Feeling nostalgic, Hrithik said he misses everything being on the set of the film.

"Miss everything about being on this set - co-working, collaborating, CREATING. #2YearsOfWar," the superstar tweeted.

Actor Tiger Shroff said: "Man i miss this! One of my best experiences going head to head with one of my idols.#2yearsofwar@iHrithik@Vaaniofficial@yrf#siddharthanand."

Lead actress Vaani Kapoor said: "2 years. 2 teams. 1 incredible WAR #2YearsOfWar @iHrithik | @iTIGERSHROFF | #SiddharthAnand | @yrf."
