Hrithik Roshan is going all-in for War 2—and not just on screen. The Bollywood superstar has reportedly struck a massive deal with Yash Raj Films that includes a Rs 50 crore upfront fee plus a share in the film’s profits, making him one of the few actors outside the Khan trio to secure a backend deal with the studio. That’s right—Hrithik now joins the league of Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, and Aamir Khan, who are known to negotiate profit-sharing terms on YRF’s biggest projects.
According to Bollywood Hungama, this high-stakes agreement is for War 2, directed by Ayan Mukerji and produced by Aditya Chopra, where Hrithik returns as Major Kabir Dhaliwal. After the film wraps its theatrical run, profits will reportedly be split between Hrithik and the studio—meaning his earnings could go far beyond that massive Rs 50 crore cheque.
War 2's massive budget
Backed by a jaw-dropping Rs 400 crore budget, War 2 is shaping up to be one of the most expensive Indian films ever made. The recently released trailer has only added fuel to the fire, raising anticipation for this explosive addition to the YRF Spy Universe. With high-stakes action, an all-star cast, and profit-sharing deals on the table, War 2 isn’t just a film—it’s a power move.
