After a bumper opening, Hrithik Roshan and Tiger Shroff's film War is marching towards Rs 100 crore at a super-fast pace. Siddharth Anand's directorial opened with Rs 53 crore on Day 1, achieving the biggest opening in the history of Hindi cinema. The movie perfectly cashed in on National holiday release.

''#War is super-strong on Day 2 working day , after the national holiday on Day 1 [#Gandhi Jayanti]...Collecting ₹ 20 cr+ on a working day - which happens to be Day 2 in this case -is a rarity... An achievement, since most biggies don’t score ₹ 20 cr on Day1,'' wrote trade analyst Taran Adarsh. He even mentioned that 150-200 screens will be added from Friday.
It is for the first time Hrithik and Tiger have come together for a project. Both theactors are known for their drool-worthy physiques, flawless dancing skills and high-octane action stunts. Hrithik and Tiger both enjoy a huge fan base, hence,the film was declared a blockbuster ahead of its release.
The audience was also excited to see the face-off between their favourite heroes, Hrithik and Tiger. War,which had a total 4,000 screen count (Hindi, Tamil and Telugu) received mixedreviews.
War is about Khalid(Tiger) who has been assigned to eliminate senior agent and mentor Kabir(Hrithik Roshan) - who has gone rogue. Interestingly, Tiger, who considers Hrithik as his icon, is playing his protégé in the film as well.
