Not SRK, but Alia Bhatt and Sharvari Wagh to feature in War 2 post-credit scene
Just when fans were expecting Shah Rukh Khan's 'Pathaan' to make a thunderous post-credit entry in War 2, YRF has taken a bold detour. Instead, India Today has exclusively learnt that the film will introduce the 'Alpha' agents — played by Alia Bhatt and Sharvari Wagh— in a carefully designed post-credit sequence that connects directly to the next YRF Spy Universe source closely associated with the project confirmed, 'The decision to not include Shah Rukh Khan in the post-credit scene is strategic. For 'War 2', the focus is on what comes next — and that's 'Alpha'.'Alia Bhatt and Sharvari, who lead YRF's first female-led spy film 'Alpha' slated for release in December 2025, will be introduced in a short but powerful cameo at the end of 'War 2', similar to how Marvel teases its next chapters. YRF has also been following the same pattern since 'Ek Tha Tiger', 'Pathaan' and 'Tiger 3'. Speaking to India Today, the source said, "It's short, yes, but it has tension, mystery and a hint of what these two women are capable of. It's not just a cameo—it's a setup.'Another source revealed that the post-credit scene was shot separately under tight security. 'The cameo was filmed quietly earlier this year, with minimal crew."The move also helps build early buzz for Alpha, which has been in production under high secrecy. Directed by Shiv Rawail, the film marks a bold step forward for the Spy Universe, focusing on two female agents from completely different backgrounds who join forces.'Alpha is as ambitious as War 2 or Pathaan — it's just more grounded and character-driven,' the source said. 'Bringing Alia and Sharvari in now helps lay the groundwork early. Audiences will walk out of 'War 2' talking about Alia and Sharvari. That's exactly what YRF wants before launching Alpha,' said the source.'War 2', starring Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR and directed by Ayan Mukerji, releases on August 14, 2025. Alpha will release in December.- EndsYou May Also Like

Why is Saiyaara winning hearts (and the box office)?
'Saiyaara' has collected over Rs 100 crore in just four days - unprecedented for a film starring debutants in India. Its popularity, constantly rising since day one, is not limited to the box office response. The YRF biggie has taken over the internet with memes, reels, discussions, debates and that one question: Why is this even working?And honestly, it's a fair a country where theatres have become a secondary medium of entertainment after OTT, a film starring fresh faces, no star pull, no promotional blitz has caught the audience's heart in an unimaginable way. Most theatrical releases were being rejected left, right and centre - and then 'Saiyaara' came along and won everyone over. But, again, why? It's important to understand that there is no definitive formula to determine what works for the audience. Anyone who claims otherwise is either lying or has no sense of the creative business - especially when it comes to cinema. You simply can't predict the public's mood. There's no right answer to why one film clicks at the box office while another it's about the nation's collective sentiment - like 'Pathaan', where audiences rallied behind Shah Rukh Khan after his son Aryan was arrested in a drug-related case. Sometimes, it's an anticipation built on legacy - like 'Pushpa: The Rule', riding on pure love for the 'Saiyaara'? Truth be told, it offers nothing new except its fresh faces. The love story is classic Mohit Suri - passionate, emotionally charged, where the leads wear their hearts on their sleeves and are ready to take on the world. The film shows old-school romance and doesn't even claim to redefine love. So then what is it? What is making audiences flock to theatres, express their emotions so loudly, and become almost unapologetically involved with what's unfolding on screen?The answer probably lies in what made 'Sanam Teri Kasam' re-release so surprisingly successful earlier this year. That film - available for free on YouTube - worked like magic in theatres. And 'Saiyaara' seems to be setting the same trend... film has its heart in the right place. It talks about emotions that are timeless but still not fully understood. You see, when it comes to the matters of love, no matter how wise or experienced, no one can claim to understand it entirely. Love is as complex to process as it is to feel. But, across generations, cultures and languages, one truth remains: when you fall in love, you do it with all you have, and all you are. 'Saiyaara' leans into that tells a familiar story in a language we all understand - music. 'Saiyaara's' music is its soul. Mohit Suri spent around five years collecting these melodies, crafting a world where every note feels like a line of poetry written in calligraphy. Even the trailer and promos kept things mysterious. Who were these two? How did they fall in love? What broke them so deeply? Did they ever meet again? Did one of them die? The air of curiosity pulled viewers in. And when the story of Krish Kapoor, a rising singer, and Vaani Batra, a shy songwriter, unfolded on the big screen, it broke the internet and the box office alike.'Saiyaara' speaks directly to this generation. It reflects their disillusionment, their buried trauma, and their search for meaning in a hyper-curated world. Krish wants to make it big the old school way, while the world chases blue ticks over real talent. Vaani simply wants to exist quietly in an age obsessed with loud influencing. Their parents are trying - sincerely and awkwardly - to help them shine while protecting them from a world they no longer understand. It's all heartbreakingly biggest win is this: it has brought an entire generation back to the theatres - a generation far more comfortable watching (and creating) content on their phones and iPads. For them, going to a theatre is an outdated idea, reserved for family outings or Marvel finales. And yet, they showed up. Not because of hype, but probably because they felt say love is a universal language - maybe they also meant it's a generational one. The Hindi film industry has spent years churning out romantic-comedies, romantic-actioners, romantic-thrillers - all in the name of love. But 'Saiyaara', despite its familiar tropes, revives a genre that's been missing from the big screen for far too long. And history tells us that when Bollywood truly invests in a soul-stirring love story, magic 'Aashiqui' to 'Aashiqui 2', 'Rockstar' to 'Kabir Singh', 'Veer-Zaara' to 'Sanam Teri Kasam', Hindi cinema has consistently struck gold when it tapped into the ache of eternal, unwavering love. 'Saiyaara' treads the same path but brings along some magical music, grounded settings, and characters who feel real. They don't romance in the Swiss valleys or flaunt the Guccis and Drios of the world. They aren't fighting monsters or chasing world domination. They are just two people trying to heal, love, survive - and maybe, build something don't need to prepare yourself to watch 'Saiyaara'. No need to know character arcs or past stories. You just walk in, hum along, feel something, and walk out a little more emotional than when you came in. It's entertainment, yet, but it's also effortless and, therefore, perhaps that's exactly why 'Saiyaara' is doesn't scream for attention. It doesn't try too hard to reinvent the wheel. It simply reminds audiences of the kind of cinema that once made them fall in love with love. At a time when every film is obsessed with being clever, loud, viral or franchise-worthy, 'Saiyaara' is just offers no pretense, no big statements - just two people, their emotions, and the melodies that stitch them together. It's like the cinematic equivalent of a long-forgotten love letter: timeless, comforting, and deeply personal. In the noise of everything else, probably a whisper of a film that manages to reach the loudest corner of the audience's why is Saiyaara working? Maybe the real question is - why wouldn't it?- EndsTrending Reel
