Siddharth Anand’s aerial action thriller Fighter released on January 25, a day before the Republic Day long weekend. And this patriotic film is a delight to all cinema-goers across the country. Starring Deepika Padukone, Hrithik Roshan, Anil Kapoor, and more, the post-credit scene of this film has become the talk of the town immediately after the release. Hang on after the credits start rolling because this post-credit scene is more than a mere extension of the film. The Fighter post-credit scene demonstrates the film’s potential to be more than just another action thriller.
Patriotism and courage are the common themes of the film, however, during Fighter‘s post-credit scene, we can’t overlook the overarching theme of romance. The scene features the two lead stars, Deepika Padukone and Hrithik Roshan sizzling chemistry through the song Ishq Jaisa Kuch. I personally felt quite reminiscent of songs like “Meherbaan” and “Besharam Rang” that showcase a similar beach aesthetic with Deepika Padukone in a sensuous bikini and Hrithik flaunting his abs. However, no one can deny the palpable energy between the co-stars that is worth a watch till the end.
Fan Theories
Siddharth Anand has been the vision behind Pathaan, WAR and now Fighter. What most fans and the author contemplate is the director’s aim to create a spy-verse, While there has been no official statement, fans have come up with their theories on Reddit. Some fans even went to the extent of saying that the characters played by Hrithik and Deepika in Fighter are children of Deepika’s character in Pathaan and Hrithik’s character in WAR. Creating a spyverse, and adding post-credits is something more common to Hollywood, it is an unexplored territory in Bollywood making “Fighter’ a trailblazer of sorts.
