People saying “Hrithik is finished after War 2” are missing the bigger picture. It’s not Hrithik who’s at fault, it’s Bollywood’s obsession with rinse-and-repeat formulas. Just because War clicked six years ago doesn’t mean a sequel, with the same glossy packaging, will automatically do the same.

Let’s be honest — War 2 struggled because of its overlong runtime and Ayan Mukherjee’s muddled storytelling. Somewhere in the attempt to go bigger, the film lost its soul. That’s not on Hrithik.

Hrithik Roshan, on his own, is still one of the most supremely talented and magnetic actors we have. He’s the rare mix of grace, intensity, and star power that can still light up the screen in a heartbeat. What he needs is a director and script that see him, that bring out the extraordinary in him instead of burying it under spectacle.

Hrithik is not “finished.” If anything, he’s waiting for the right stage to remind everyone why we fell in love with him in the first place — and when that moment comes, it will be worth the wait. 💙

But Hrithik did not do the movie over a gunshot. He is part of the problem because he has been part of these rinse and repeat movies for getting easy hits.

Hrithik's last 3 movies opening against their budgets

Vikram Vedha 100cr budget opening 10cr

Fighter 250cr budget opening 22cr

War 2 400cr budget opening 26cr


His starpower is failing to open the movies at a level they should considering their budgets. That is the main reason these movies have failed that the star whose starpower was the main attraction and who was paid ridiculously huge amounts failed to bring an initial for these movies

Hrithik has a very underwhelming filmography. His script choices have always sucked.

And thats the point that they fail to understand, its not about Flop, its about the opening against the budget and gender. War should have open 50 cr, and even if the film floped nobody would have question Hrithik Star power.

Even at his lowest point SRK used to have decent opening where nobody else (apart from Bhai and Aamir) would in those kind of films.
