MUMBAI: The teaser of War 2 was unveiled today (May 20, 2025) on the occasion of Jr NTR’s birthday, marking his much-anticipated Bollywood debut. While the announcement had generated significant buzz, the first glimpse of the action-thriller has left audiences divided. A large section of netizens took to social media to express that the Baaghi 4 actor, #TigerShroff, was sorely missed in the teaser and that only he could match Hrithik Roshan's magnetic screen presence and action prowess.
The War franchise, known for its high-octane action and adrenaline-pumping sequences, saw Tiger Shroff and Hrithik Roshan face off in the original 2019 blockbuster. Fans now believe that the original magic is missing in War 2, despite Jr NTR's impressive look.
Several users voiced their opinions on X (formerly Twitter), stating that the real action king - Tiger Shroff brought a level of energy and agility that Jr NTR couldn’t quite match in the teaser.
Here are some reactions:
No Offense
The WAR, Is not the same or anything without #TigerShroff & Sid!
No hate to #JrNTR But #HrithikRoshan Vs Tiger was peak madness. And Tiger in this was he really ate the show !
People will now realise his worth in this film!

#JrNTRimagine how bad u must be to be seen as a downgrade from #TigerShroff #KiaraAdvani > #War2Teaser
Also #HrithikRoshan looks so amazing but vfx by yrf is terrible as always. Could have take help from red chillies like they did for Tiger 3.#HappyBirthdayNTR #Hrx #War2— Harsh Singh Bindra (@WhiplashHunt) May 20, 2025
#War2 में Tiger Shroff की जगह #JrNTR को क्यों लिया गया है?#War2Teaser में टाइगर श्रॉफ कहीं नहीं दिखे, क्या उनका वॉर 2 से पत्ता कट गया है?
जब War फिल्म में #HrithikRoshan और #TigerShroff थे तो वॉर 2 में टाइगर भाई क्यों नहीं है?
हकीकत क्या है चलिए जानते हैं।

#War2Teaser is Oustanding #HrithikRoshan's look and body action is amazing and he is the last super star of Bollywood the way his body action is, #JrNTR looks very weak in front of him#JrNTR looked totally weak in front of the role played by #TigerShroff in the War movie pic.twitter.com/ENk1FQYfts

#War2Teaser Is Superbb
Jr NTR Looking Good But Hrithik Roshan Dominate Teaser Without Any Dialogue
Honestly #TigerShroff was Much Better In WAR Than NTR in WAR2 #HrithikRoshan𓃵 #War2 #JrNTR— Aklesh Bhamore (@iAklesh) May 20, 2025
#War2Teaser is underwhelming!!
The VFX are very tacky. The green screen usage is really bad. That running on the train looks really fake. Didn't expect this bad quality from a war sequel. Also #JrNTR doesn't seem to match the energy of #TigerShroff #HrithikRoshan𓃵 #War2— Movie Maniac (@iamcvr) May 20, 2025
#War2Teaser not gonna lie but it was only #tigershroff who could match hrithik

While War 2 is one of the most awaited sequels of 2025, this strong fan reaction shows just how impactful *Tiger Shroff's* role was in the original—and how audiences still connect his name with the high-voltage action the franchise is known for.
