‘Kesariya’ Team Reunites for Hrithik Roshan–Kiara Advani’s Romantic Track ‘Flashback’ in War 2
As per the latest buzz in Btown circles, the powerhouse team behind the chart-topping song ‘Kesariya’—director Ayan Mukerji, composer Pritam, lyricist Amitabh Bhattacharya, and singer Arijit Singh—are reuniting to create a romantic track for the upcoming film War 2, starring Hrithik Roshan and Kiara Advani.
Set to release this week, the song will be the first musical glimpse from War 2, arriving just ahead of the film’s grand Independence Day weekend premiere on August 14, 2025. The news of this collaboration has stirred excitement online, and Yash Raj Films (YRF), the producers of the spy action thriller, have officially confirmed the reunion.
While YRF remains tight-lipped about plot specifics, an insider shared, “It is a beautiful, soulful track that explores the romantic bond between Hrithik and Kiara’s characters. Unlike the film’s high-octane action, this song offers a soft, emotional glimpse into their backstory.”Bollywood Hungama previously reported that this romantic ballad serves as a flashback, revealing the past connection between Kabir (Hrithik Roshan) and Kavya (Kiara Advani). Shot against the stunning backdrops of Rome and Tuscany, leaked behind-the-scenes footage months ago fueled fan anticipation for their on-screen chemistry.
With the creative team behind ‘Kesariya’ at the helm, expectations are sky-high. That song’s emotional depth resonated with millions, and this new track aims to evoke similar feelings—this time woven into a story of espionage and betrayal. Arijit Singh, who lent his voice to Hrithik’s hit ‘Ghungroo’ in War (2019), returns with a more intimate, heartfelt melody.While War 2 promises thrilling action and a fierce confrontation between Hrithik Roshan and NTR Jr., this romantic flashback adds layers of vulnerability to Kabir’s character.
It offers fans a poignant look at what shaped the man behind the spy.Directed by Ayan Mukerji and produced by Aditya Chopra under the YRF Spy Universe banner, War 2 will release pan-India in Hindi, Telugu, and Tamil across theaters and IMAX. Following blockbuster teasers, this song release is poised to be the next major highlight of the film’s promotional journey, promising a memorable love story within the Spy Universe.
