One of the most anticipated action blockbusters of 2025, War 2, is gearing up for its big release on August 14, 2025, and fans can’t wait to see Hrithik Roshan and NTR Jr. share the screen for the first time.
As part of the ever-expanding YRF Spy Universe, the film has been surrounded by endless speculation — especially about whether Salman Khan’s Tiger or Shah Rukh Khan’s Pathaan would pop up for a surprise cameo.
Well, the mystery’s over. And the answer?
Neither Salman nor SRK will be making an appearance.
War 2 end credit scene reveals a shocking twist, no Salman Khan or Shah Rukh Khan cameo, but Bobby Deol’s big entry as the YRF Spy Universe’s next major villain. Here’s what it means.
War 2 End Credit Surprise: No Tiger, No Pathaan — Here’s Why
According to insiders, War 2 won’t feature either Salman Khan or Shah Rukh Khan in person, although their characters will still be referenced at important moments in the film.
Rather than relying on star-packed cameos as fan service, producer Aditya Chopra is keeping his focus on pushing the Spy Universe’s storyline forward in a more organic way.
The film’s end-credit scene will serve as a setup for the next big chapter in the YRF Spy Universe, a project currently titled Alpha.
This upcoming film will feature Alia Bhatt and Sharvari Wagh as the leads.
Chopra is reportedly saving the long-awaited “all-three-superstars-together” moment — Tiger, Pathaan, and Kabir — for a separate mega project that’s still in development.
War 2 End Credit To Have Bobby Deol’s Big Entry
So, what’s the big surprise in War 2?
It’s Bobby Deol’s grand entry into the YRF Spy Universe.
According to sources, his cameo won’t just be a blink-and-miss moment; it’s a full-scale introduction to a major new villain in the franchise.
Bobby’s character is expected to become one of the central antagonists in the Spy Universe’s future timeline. In true Aditya Chopra fashion, the plan is to go against expectations.
Instead of using War 2 to set up Alpha’s female leads, he’s using it to unleash this powerful new negative force.
Given Bobby Deol’s recent career resurgence and his knack for intense, magnetic screen presence, fans can expect this introduction to leave a lasting impression.
Ayan Mukerji at the Helm
War 2 is directed by Ayan Mukerji, known for his visually striking storytelling and high-energy action sequences. The film will release in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu, ensuring it reaches audiences across India and beyond.
With Hrithik Roshan returning as Kabir, NTR Jr. making his Spy Universe debut, and Bobby Deol stepping in as the next big villain, the stakes couldn’t be higher.
And if the end-credit tease for Alpha delivers as promised, War 2 could easily become one of the most talked-about releases of the year.
Final Take
Fans hoping for a Salman or SRK cameo might feel a little disappointed, but the trade-off is worth it.
Instead of a quick fan moment, War 2 will give us a carefully planned expansion of the Spy Universe, introducing Bobby Deol in a role that could shape multiple future films.
Mark August 14, 2025 on your calendar, because the battle is just beginning, and the YRF Spy Universe is only getting bigger, bolder, and more unpredictable.
