Not Just Hrithik—Now Even Shah Rukh and Salman Will Take This Oath in YRF's Spy Universe Surprise in War 2

Yash Raj Films is all set to shake up its Spy Universe with a major twist—not just in War 2, but in all upcoming spy films featuring superstars like Shah Rukh Khan’s Pathaan and Salman Khan’s Tiger.

The highly anticipated War 2, slated for release on 14 August, comes with a massive budget of ₹400 crore and stars Hrithik Roshan opposite Jr NTR, who reportedly charged more than Hrithik for his role. The trailer recently dropped, packed with explosive action and aerial stunts. But amid the chaos, one scene caught everyone's attention—an 80-second oath taken by the lead agents.

A New Oath That Will Change the Spy Universe

This oath—declaring to serve the country above all else—isn’t just a scene. It's a franchise-wide reset. Director Ayan Mukerji and producer Aditya Chopra, along with writer Sridhar Raghavan, have crafted a new standard agent oath that will now be a part of every spy film going forward.

So next time Shah Rukh’s Pathaan or Salman’s Tiger appears on screen, they will also be seen taking this same solemn oath. It's a signature move to unify all characters across the Spy Universe—something Marvel and DC fans are quite familiar with.

Why the Trailer Showed So Little

Despite its high-octane visuals, the War 2 trailer was intentionally restrained. According to sources, the makers didn’t want to reveal too much too early. The oath scene is just the beginning of what’s coming for fans of this cinematic universe.

War 2 vs Rajinikanth's Coolie: Box Office Battle

War 2 will clash with Rajinikanth’s Coolie at the box office. Adding more competition are big names like Aamir Khan and Nagarjuna, who are also tied to major upcoming releases.

Still, War 2 has a trick up its sleeve. The introduction of the oath scene as a unifying ritual across spy films may turn out to be a game-changer—especially when Pathaan and Tiger return in future crossovers.
