Vaani on not being part of War 2
In an interview with Siddharth Kanan, Vaani was asked if she felt she should have been part of War 2. The actor said, “No, I wish them the best. I feel incredibly grateful that I at least got the opportunity to be a part of a film like War, the OG War. It is looking beautiful. It is cinematic. It is larger than life. Kudos to the team.”
Playfully referencing the fates of her and co-star Tiger Shroff’s characters in the original film, Vaani quipped, “Me, Sid (director Sidharth Anand), and Tiger are all not there in the sequel. Tiger and I both passed away in War. So I said, if Tiger comes back, I’m coming back too, my friend!”
Released in 2019, War was a major box office success and one of the highest-grossing Bollywood films of the year. Directed by Siddharth Anand and produced by Yash Raj Films, the action thriller starred Hrithik Roshan, Tiger Shroff, and Vaani Kapoor. The film received praise for its high-octane action sequences, slick visuals, and the dynamic chemistry between Hrithik and Tiger. War crossed ₹475 crore globally and became the highest-grossing Indian film of 2019.
