The clip in question serves as an introduction to the next chapter of the spy universe– WAR 2.It features Hrithik as Kabir, going up against some bad guys in a back alley. A voiceover sets the stage for the events to unfold in the upcoming sequel that will reportedly see Kabir going up against a villain or ‘Shaitan’. Unlike his other opponents, this one has no name or face and lives in the shadows. He is also warned that going up against this formidable villain could make him question everything he knows about good and evil.
“Shaitan se ladte ladte kahi khud shaitan na ban Jaao,” the voiceover concludes.

Taking to Twitter, fans, buzzing with excitement about the next instalment of the franchise said, “If the post credit in Tiger 3 is accurate, War 2 is going to have a strong storyline because of its powerful villain. Expectations raised. Waiting for HR X NTR clash in #War2.”
