Mumbai, July 24 (NationPress) The much-anticipated action film 'War 2', featuring Hrithik Roshan and NTR Jr, has made history as the first Indian movie to be launched in Dolby Cinema within India.

This milestone signifies a revolutionary moment for cinematic storytelling and audience engagement in the nation. The film is set to be released in both Hindi and Telugu at Dolby Cinema locations across North America, the United Kingdom, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and various other international markets.

Yash Raj Films (YRF) and Dolby Laboratories, Inc. have collaborated to provide this innovative cinematic experience for audiences. The film heralds a new chapter in Indian cinema, showcasing the intricate details and vibrant colors of Dolby Vision alongside the realistic and immersive audio of Dolby Atmos. This technology brings the creators' artistic vision to life and pushes the boundaries of cinematic art.

Rohan Malhotra, Vice President of Distribution at Yash Raj Films, stated, “YRF has consistently aimed to exceed expectations in delivering enriching cinematic experiences. From adopting Dolby Audio in the 90s to pioneering Dolby Atmos in our blockbusters, we are thrilled to now lead the way with Dolby Cinema. With War 2, we invite audiences to step into a new era of film experience, where every scene is more vibrant through Dolby Vision, every sound is more immersive with Dolby Atmos, and the overall experience is more unforgettable than ever before in Dolby Cinema.”

Indian moviegoers can encounter this high-energy action spectacle as intended by the filmmakers at India’s inaugural Dolby Cinema, which opened recently at City Pride Multiplexes, Kharadi, Pune. Plans are underway to establish additional Dolby Cinema screens across India, including cities like Hyderabad, Bengaluru, Trichy, Kochi, and Ulikkal.

Michael Archer, Vice President of Worldwide Cinema Sales and Partner Management at Dolby Laboratories, remarked, “Our partnership with Yash Raj Films has spanned decades, achieving numerous milestones. We are excited to continue this legacy with War 2 (Hindi & Telugu), which will be available in Dolby Cinema in India and internationally starting August 14th. This film is also the first Indian title to debut at Dolby Cinema in India. The experience offered by Dolby Cinema, featuring stunning visuals in Dolby Vision and immersive sound through Dolby Atmos, transforms the way audiences experience storytelling.”

In 2020, YRF became the first music label in India to provide a Dolby Atmos Music experience through a collection of popular tracks under the album ‘Best of YRF’.

'War 2' is scheduled for theatrical release on August 14, 2025.
