While Megastar Chiranjeevi's visual extravaganza Sye Raa Narasimhareddy opened with rave reviews and positive word of mouth, Bollywood superstar Hrithik Roshan and Tiger Shroff starrer War opened with not so encouraging reports.
Top media houses The Indian Express and First Post awarded 2 rating each to War. That's not the reason Hrithik's fans turned grief-stricken. There has been no single update from US box office on the collection statuses of War. Though the film showed good trend in advance bookings in Hindi belt, it appeared to be a big let down in other areas.
When Yash Raj Films adamantly decided to stick to War release on October 2, Hrithik's fans went panic as they worried about Sye Raa's opposition. As their prediction has been proven right, they are expressing their anger on Yash Raj Films for not postponing the film.
"We hope team War should go for post release promotions aggressively as a damage control exercise," says a Hrithik's fan.
