Rajinikanth And Salman Khan To Join Forces For ‘Jawan’ Director Atlee’s Next Film: Report
With jaw-dropping action scenes reminiscent of 'Jawan', Rajinikanth and Salman Khan are set to star in an epic action flick.
New Delhi: An upcoming pan-Indian film, reportedly set to be directed by 'Jawan' director Atlee and starring Rajinikanth and Salman Khan, might be one of the best collaborations of 2024. Sources close to Atlee have told Bollywood Hungama that the director is going to produce the biggest film in Indian cinema, according to the report.
Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan's highly awaited cooperation for the YRF spyverse thriller 'Tiger Vs Pathaan' is already a big deal, but Atlee’s project might top that.
Atlee to Cast Rajinikanth and Salman Khan Together
Bollywood Hungama quoted a source saying, “Sun Pictures will be producing the film, and they share a family-like bond with superstar Rajinikanth. Atlee, on the other hand, has been in touch with Salman Khan for the last two years. They are confident to get both Rajinikanth and Salman Khan on board.”
Even though the title is still up in the air, production might start by the year 2024 if all goes according to plan.
