Mumbai/IBNS: Bollywood superstar Hrithik Roshan has responded to the outpouring love his fans showered on the teaser of War 2.

Hrithik not only reprises the role of Kabir but also ups the ante of the super-spy Kabir in War 2 with his swagger, intensity, look, brilliant acting, and ease in pulling off deadly action sequences that have got everyone talking.

Hrithik says, "War is a really special franchise for me. So, seeing the appreciation that War 2’s teaser is getting, seeing how people are pouring their love for NTR, Kiara, Ayan, for me, and the entire team makes me really happy. It is not easy making films of this scale, and we have given our best to make War 2 an action spectacle for people."

He adds, "I have always been a huge fan of the action genre since I was a kid, and I really have fun whenever I do films like War 2. So, for me, I had the best time reliving Kabir—a character that has given me love from all quarters for years now."

Hrithik says, "I’m delighted and humbled by the love and feedback that War 2 is getting right from the start of our campaign. I can’t wait to see the reaction of people when they see War 2 on the big screen."
