Wishing you a joyous day and an action-packed year ahead. Awaiting you on the yuddhabhumi (battlefield) my friend. May your days be full of happiness and peace…until we meet (wink emoji). Puttina Roju Subhakankshalu Mitrama (happy birthday my dear friend)."

It is to be noted that Hrithik's 2019 released 'War' was directed by Siddharth Anand, who recently delivered the blockbuster 'Pathaan', featuring Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone and John Abraham. Siddharth is working on his next film 'Fighter', which stars Hrithik along with Deepika Padukone. 

The buzz is that Hrithik is gearing up for 'War 2', which will be directed by Ayan Mukerji. Yash Raj Films is yet to make a confirmation on Jr NTR starring in the film. In the film announcement last month, film trade analyst Taran Adarsh tweeted that 'War 2' will be the seventh film in the YRF Spy Universe and will follow the events of 'Tiger 3'. However, there is no official statement from the makers yet.  

The first installment 'War' starred Hrithik, along with Vaani Kapoor, and Tiger Shroff in a dual role. The film was a Box Office hit. 'War 2' is expected to be a big-budgeted pan-Indian action spectacle.
