YRF to keep Hrithik Roshan & Jr NTR away from each other for War 2 promotions!

Yash Raj Films have always deployed unique strategies to spike audience interest while promoting the YRF Spy Universe movies. We have learnt that since War 2 will see the first ever on-screen moment of Hrithik Roshan & Jr NTR coming together, YRF will keep them away from each other during promotions so that the experience of them ruthlessly fighting each other is served to the maximum to audience. “Hrithik & Jr NTR will be promoting War 2 separately and all plans have been made keeping in mind that they would never share the stage together, never be in any promotional video together pre-release and never seen with each other.

People bemoan bullshit jobs, parse language disparities, contemplate post-tsunami building methods in Sri Lanka. Winding their way to a possible jungle utopia, the Peruvians fret about the local hazards: maybe “mega-billionaires” are living up in the tree canopy.
