War has become Hrithik’s highest grossing film in North America and has earned $3.2 million. It has crossed the earnings of all his previous films like B_ang Bang, Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara_ and Jodhaa Akbar, among others. War follows Kabir (Hrithik), an intelligence agent gone rogue and his protege Khalid (Tiger). Officials decide there are no other ways to tackle the problem but to kill Kabir, and employ Khalid for the task. Both actors perform daredevil action stunts during the cat and mouse chase. Vaani Kapoor, Ashutosh Rana, Soni Razdan, and Arif Zakaria play supporting roles in War. The film has been directed by Siddharth Anand, known for films like Bachna Ae Haseeno and Salaam Namaste.
