At the success meet of War, Hrithik spoke about how after the film's success, fans can expect even greater things from him. "Probably the time has come for me to give my best when I am making decisions in my life. I am feeling very encouraged, very motivated. So, I think I will choose even better films. However, how much time it takes and all is not in my hands, but I promise my best work is yet to come," he said.

"As expected #WAR takes a very good jump all over India after 3pm shows today," tweeted film analyst Rohit Jaiswal. 

Trade analyst Kaushik LM wrote about War's success on Twitter. "#War crosses the 100 CR Ind nett mark in just 3 days (Hindi version contributing more than 95%). Record smashing Hit ?? #WarCreatesHistory. @iHrithik @iTIGERSHROFF #WarCentury," he tweeted. 

"With the super success of #War actors in the industry should really start to consider doing more two-hero films... it’s not about diluting your stardom but it’s about pushing your ability to be a bigger star! @iHrithik and @iTIGERSHROFF have surely shown the way here," tweeted film enthusiast Amul Mohan.

Actor Hansika Motwani shared her thoughts about War on Twitter. "Watching #War and screaming !!! Dayumm @iHrithik ! Words don’t do justice to describe how good he looks in each frame ? @iTIGERSHROFF is so earnest??, so gribbed while watching the movie ! The story,the making of the movie is massive ! @yrf #SiddharthAnand," she wrote.

"#War benchmarks.?? Fifth #YRF film to cross ? ? cr in 3 days, after #Dhoom3, #Sultan, #TZH and #TOH.?? #Highest grossing *first 3 days* for #HrithikRoshan, #TigerShroff and director #SiddharthAnand. #India biz," tweeted film trade analyst Taran Adarsh. 

Film analyst Taran Adarsh shared War's total collection figures on Twitter. "#War. #Hindi: Wed 51.60 cr, Thu 23.10 cr, Fri 21.30 cr. Total: ? 96 cr.  #Tamil + #Telugu: Wed 1.75 cr, Thu 1.25 cr, Fri 1.15 cr. Total: ? 4.15 cr. Total: ?100.15 cr. #India biz," he wrote.

"#War continues its dream run... Day 3 [Fri] - a working day and coming after two days of big biz - shows no signs of weakening or slowing down... Now it’s up to the two days of weekend - Sat and Sun - to add to a solid *extended* weekend total," tweeted trade analyst Taran Adarsh.

Despite concerns of tough competition from other films released on the same day, War leads the pack in Chennai in terms of total collections. "Oct 2nd releases Day 3 Chennai city gross. #Joker - 14 lakhs. #War - 12 lakhs. #SyeRaa - 8 lakhs. 3-days city total: #War - 63 lakhs. #Joker - 61 lakhs. #SyeRaa - 54 lakhs," tweeted film trade analyst Kaushik LM.

The Indian Express critic Shubhra Gupta gave War 2 stars. "The chief trouble with War is that all the space is divvied up between Hrithik and Tiger, and they are so busy strutting across the screen, in all their glory, so ripped, so brawny, that the poor baddies don’t really get a chance. Not one scary villain who sends the shivers down our spines? Then the spies might as well be playing ring-around-the-roses with each other," she wrote.

"#WAR raked approximately 21 cr nett on Friday. (hindi biz). Saturday & Sunday combined collection would be minimum 60 cr nett which’ll take its 5 days total to 160 cr nett . Audience word of mouth is very positive," tweeted film trade analyst Sumit Kadel.

Film distributor and analyst Raj Bansal took to Twitter to share his predictions about when War's earnings would cross the 200 crore mark. "@iHrithik @iTIGERSHROFF @Vaaniofficial @yrf #SiddharthAnand #AdityaChopra s #War is all set to cross ?200 Cr. Mark in its first week. (9Days)," he wrote. 

At the success meet of War, Hrithik Roshan said, "I can only say thank you very very much. For me it is a celebration, it is a milestone. I have been fortunate that I have been part of films that have made me feel so empowered. I have felt so much love and passion for both the films. I guess, after this (War’s record breaking box office opening), I feel very very encouraged, and from now on, I am going to set my benchmark even higher."

"We did had an idea of turning it into a franchise provided we get the love of the audience. It seems the audience’s demand is more than our desire. This is how it should be. We all will sit together soon and decide on it," director Siddharth Anand told PTI.

"It is superb to see the way @iTIGERSHROFF has risen in such a MASSIVE way to be an action star pan-India. It’s not an easy thing and if he strikes big with #Baaghi3 (which is very probable), he would indeed be one of the youngest SUPERSTARS around. Way to go #War," Joginder Tuteja.

Hrithik Roshan recently told PTI, "Right after War, I am going to sit with my father, get everyone together and restart work on Krrish 4. We had put it a little on the side because dad was recovering. Now that he is better, we will kick-start it once more."

After watching War, Karan Johar wrote on Instagram, "When you watch a film with the excitement of a kid in a candy ( read that as dandy) store you know you have a winner!! A massive winner!! #WAR is a popcorn party at the movies! Testosterone overdrive and beefcake brilliance makes this viewing a pure pleasure!

When Hrithik Roshan was asked what his head-space was like after delivering two back-to-back hits this year – Super 30 and War, the actor said, “I can only say thank you very very much. For me it is a celebration, it is a milestone. I have been fortunate that I have been part of films that have made me feel so empowered. I have felt so much love and passion for both the films. I guess, after this (War’s record breaking box office opening), I feel very very encouraged, and from now on, I am going to set my benchmark even higher.”
