Sidharth Malhotra 'Can't Wait To See' New Mom Kiara Advani In Her 'Action Avatar' In War 2
The film will be out in theatres on August 14, 2025. The much-anticipated War 2 Trailer is finally out, and Hrithik Roshan, Kiara Advani and Jr NTR's fans are buzzing with excitement. Sidharth Malhotra has also joined the bandwagon and cannot wait to see his wife and actress Kiara Advani in her action avatar. Sidharth shared the trailer on his Instagram Story and lauded the cast. Sidharth Malhotra wrote on Instagram, 'Counting down to see this one, Ayan Mukerji! Can't wait to see Kiara Advani in her action avatar, and the two titans Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR." Have a look here: Meanwhile, some eagle-eyed fans on Reddit have even begun theorising the film's plot, dissecting every frame with great detail. A Reddit post is going viral for claiming that Kiara Advani plays Kavya Luthra in War 2. As per the post's theory, Kavya is the daughter of Colonel Sunil Luthra (played by Ashutosh Rana), a Joint Secretary of RAW. He is a key figure in the YRF Spyverse and is tasked with managing the pursuit of Hrithik Roshan's Kabir, who has gone rogue. The Redditor zoomed in on Kiara's name tag in one shot from the trailer and claimed that it read 'Kavya Luthra'. The trailer of War 2 shows Kavya and Kabir romancing in a foreign location. The trailer also features shots of Kavya in her true agent avatar, gunning down her enemies. Hrithik Roshan is also seen directly interacting with Ashutosh Rana, who spits on the star's face in what seems like a kidnapping scene. While these fan theories are spreading like wildfire, it is important to note that none of this speculation has been confirmed, including Kiara's character's name in the film. The film will be out in theatres on August 14, 2025. Fans are eagerly waiting to see what cinematic wonder the three stars bring to the screens. Meanwhile, Sidharth Malhotra and Kiara Advani are also embracing a new role in their lives. They recently welcomed their first child, a beautiful baby girl. Kiara and Sidharth's daughter was born earlier this month, and the new parents are yet to announce her name and reveal her face to the world.

Kiara Advani, Hrithik Roshan's Kiss In War 2 Sparks Age Gap Debate; Fans React To 18-Year Difference
Kiara Advani and Hrithik Roshan's fans have defended their pairing in War 2, calling them mature. The trailer of War 2 was finally released today, July 25, amid much anticipation. Fans had been excited to see what cinematic wonder Hrithik Roshan, Kiara Advani and Jr NTR will bring to the screens. While the War 2 trailer was full of exciting moments, one particular frame has caught everyone's attention. Hrithik Roshan and Kiara Advani's kiss in the trailer has sparked a debate about their age gap. A user on Reddit shared a screenshot of the two actors kissing in the film and wondered why their age gap wasn't being talked about. Hrithik Roshan is 51 years old, and Kiara Advani is 33 years old, marking an age gap of 18 years. While such an age gap usually irks fans, not too many seem concerned when it comes to War 2. While there are some comments about the age gap, most fans seem to defend the actors. One person wrote, 'There is literally an 18-year age gap between Hritik and Kiara." However, another person responded, 'This is just unnecessary atp. A woman of 33 is not some novice child. It's creepy to pair a woman in her 20s with a man in his 50s-60s, but in her 30s, she's a fully mature woman, and a 33-year-old woman and a 51-year-old is not some extraordinary age difference even in the real world." A comment read, 'Pretty privilege is real." Another mentioned, 'It's not a great age gap, considering other Bollywood couples." One person wrote, 'A 22-year-old being cast opposite a 40-year-old, and a 32-year-old opposite a 50-year-old, is a big difference." Another comment mentioned, 'Idk why the age difference is a problem. They are both consenting adults." Meanwhile, Reddit is also buzzing with theories about Kiara Advani's character in the film. A Reddit post is going viral for claiming that Kiara Advani plays Kavya Luthra in War 2. As per the post's theory, Kavya is the daughter of Colonel Sunil Luthra (played by Ashutosh Rana), a Joint Secretary of RAW. He is a key figure in the YRF Spyverse and is tasked with managing the pursuit of Hrithik Roshan's Kabir, who has gone rogue. While these fan theories are spreading like wildfire, it is important to note that none of this speculation has been confirmed, including Kiara's character's name in the film.
