In a move that has set social media meltdown, Bollywood superstar Hrithik Roshan, who reprises his iconic role of Kabir in the hugely anticipated YRF Spy Universe’s next offering War 2, took to his social media platforms to announce that he is planning an explosive birthday celebration for NTR on May 20, 2025.

Hrithik’s post read: “Hey @tarak9999, think you know what to expect on the 20th of May this year? Trust me you have NO idea what’s in store. Ready?”

Hrithik’s post broke the internet instantly. He ignited the speculation of a major reveal from War 2 — the second instalment of the franchise being directed by the celebrated young film-maker Ayan Mukerji.

Jr NTR also responded to Hrithik's post saying, "Thank you in advance @iHrithik sir!!! Can’t wait to hunt you down to give you a special return gift Kabir…"
