The buzz surrounding War 2 just got louder with the release of its much-anticipated track, Aavan Jaavan, featuring Hrithik Roshan and Kiara Advani in a sizzling, high-octane romantic number that has quickly become the center of conversation. With its pulsating beats, exotic visuals, and steamy sequences, the song has taken social media by storm — and so has the crackling onscreen pairing of the two stars. Or has it?
In the video, Hrithik and Kiara are seen engaging in an intense push-pull of emotions, passion, and physical chemistry that’s hard to ignore. From slow, sultry glances to electrifying dance moves and intimate moments that leave little to the imagination, Aavan Jaavan is clearly designed to be a showstopper. Hrithik, known for his unmatched screen presence and dance prowess, once again proves why he’s Bollywood’s eternal heartthrob. And Kiara, stepping into a more sensuous avatar than fans are used to, holds her own with remarkable ease.
Yet, despite the song’s cinematic appeal and production grandeur, the internet remains divided over whether the duo’s chemistry actually works.
Some fans have lauded the pairing, calling it “fresh, bold, and exciting.” Social media platforms are flooded with fire emojis, heart-eyed reactions, and praise for Kiara and Hrithik’s daring performances. “Didn’t expect this level of sizzle from them,” one user commented. “Kiara has matched Hrithik’s energy beat for beat.”
However, not everyone is convinced. A section of the audience feels the spark between the two doesn’t quite ignite as expected. Comments such as “Chemistry feels forced,” and “Looks good but lacks soul,” have surfaced under the video’s comment sections. For many, the visuals are top-notch, but the emotional connect between the lead pair leaves something to be desired.
This mixed reception hasn’t dulled the hype for War 2, which is being touted as one of the biggest action films of the year. Directed by Ayan Mukerji and serving as a sequel to the blockbuster War (2019), the film brings together a power-packed cast with high expectations riding on its shoulders. While the original featured Hrithik alongside Tiger Shroff, the sequel shakes things up with Kiara joining the franchise as the new leading lady — and if Aavan Jaavan is anything to go by, she’s stepping into this high-octane universe with confidence and style.
Industry insiders suggest that the makers of War 2 were banking on the song to showcase the unconventional pairing and hint at their characters’ deeper arc in the narrative. “The chemistry between the leads will evolve throughout the film,” said a source close to the production. “This song is just a glimpse into their complex relationship.”
As the views for Aavan Jaavan continue to climb across streaming platforms, it’s clear that the Hrithik-Kiara pairing has captured the audience’s attention — whether with admiration or debate. Whether this experimental duo becomes a fan-favorite or remains a point of contention will ultimately depend on how their characters unfold on the big screen.
For now, though, one thing is certain: War 2 has successfully sparked curiosity, and Aavan Jaavan has ensured that everyone is watching — even if they’re not all in agreement.
