Sidharth Malhotra reviews War 2, praising wife Kiara Advani’s debut as “graceful and strong on screen.”

Sidharth Malhotra turned fanboy for wife Kiara Advani after watching her action-packed debut in War 2.
Sidharth Malhotra is all praises for wife Kiara Advani after catching her latest outing in Ayan Mukerji’s high-octane action spectacle War 2. The actor took to social media to pen a glowing review, celebrating both the scale of the film and Kiara’s powerful performance.
Sharing his thoughts, Sidharth wrote, “What a ride! Action, scale and so much style. @kiaraaliaadvani such grace and strength on screen. @hrithikroshan As always a class apart. @jrntr sheer powerhouse on screen and a big applause to @ayan_mukerji and team for bringing it all to life.”
Kiara, who plays Kavya Luthra—a new character in the YRF Spy Universe—reacted with heart emojis to her husband’s heartfelt shoutout. With slick action set pieces and fiery chemistry opposite Hrithik Roshan, her debut in the spy franchise has already become a talking point.
Kiara’s War 2 Journey
Marking her entry into Yash Raj Films’ coveted Spy Universe, Kiara joins the league that includes Ek Tha Tiger, Tiger Zinda Hai, War, and Pathaan. Her character has been described as sharp, stylish, and pivotal to the film’s narrative. Sharing a still from the movie, Kiara thanked audiences, “Your love speaks the loudest… seeing your smiles, your cheers, your excitement fills our hearts with joy… #War2 in cinemas.”
Box Office Battle
Despite facing tough competition from Rajinikanth’s Coolie, War 2 has proven its might at the box office, raking in ₹142 crore within three days of release. The film is expected to cross the ₹150 crore mark today, August 17. Trade analysts, however, note that the film’s “real test” will come with its Monday hold.
The Big Picture
Audiences have praised the film for its massive scale, pulsating action, and star power. Hrithik Roshan has been hailed for his finesse, Jr NTR for his raw intensity, and Kiara Advani for a striking debut in the action-heavy franchise. Director Ayan Mukerji has also been commended for mounting blockbuster set pieces while keeping the narrative energetic.
With star power, spectacle, and fan frenzy working in its favor, War 2 looks set to hold its ground as one of the biggest event films of the year.
