Hrithik Roshan surprised fans by unveiling the first single Aavan Jaavan from the much-anticipated War 2 on July 31, 2025, a date that also marks co-star Kiara Advani’s birthday. The strategic release blends celebration with storytelling, offering audiences a deeper, more emotional look at Roshan’s character, Kabir. He captioned the post, "Once upon a time, Kabir had hope, joy and love. #AavanJaavan out now!", signaling a narrative evolution from the hardened rogue RAW agent seen in the original War (2019).
Set to music by Pritam, with lyrics by Amitabh Bhattacharya and vocals from Arijit Singh and Nikhita Gandhi, the song adds a romantic dimension to the high-octane action franchise. Directed and choreographed by Bosco Leslie Martis, Aavan Jaavan was recorded at YRF Studios and quickly gained traction online, notching over 165,000 views within hours of release — a testament to the combined fanbases of Hrithik and Kiara.
The visuals and lyrics hint at a more introspective Kabir, suggesting that War 2 will explore his emotional backstory — a shift made possible by the film’s $50 million budget increase, designed to deepen character arcs and expand the cinematic universe.
Slated to release in Hindi, Telugu, and Tamil on August 14, 2025, just ahead of India's Independence Day, War 2 is poised for a major global rollout. Building on the original film’s $47 million box office success and the patriotic fervor of the holiday weekend, the sequel is projected to open to at least $60 million worldwide, according to early estimates.
With Aavan Jaavan, the makers of War 2 have not only dropped a chartbuster but also offered a glimpse into the soul behind the action — a smart blend of emotion, timing, and marketing power.
