New Delhi: Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan are all set to work together again for a full-fledged feature length film after 'Karan Arjun' in 1995. The stars had done a cameo in Aanand L Rai's 'Zero' where Salman had featured in a song and SRK played lead in the film. Now, it has come to our knowledge that Salman and Shah Rukh will work together when their roles in 'Tiger 3' and 'Pathaan' cross over in each other's films. Besides that, they will also be doing a two-hero action film under the Yash Raj banner.

Meaning, Shah Rukh Khan whose 'Pathaan' alongside Deepika Padukone and John Abraham is slated to release in 2023 and Salman Khan's 'Tiger 3' which is also set for a release next year will have a glimpse of both stars. Both films are Yash Raj Banner productions.

According to Pinkvilla, the idea came to Aditya Chopra, who heads the YRF banner, after the success of Hrithik Roshan and Tiger Shroff starrer 'War'. The espionage thriller was a big hit. Thus, to expand the spy-thriller genre, SRK as Pathaan will be seen in Salman's 'Tiger 3' while Salman as Avinash Singh Rathore will be seen in 'Pathaan'.

Looks like it's good news for both Salman and Shah Rukh fans. As two mega stars cross over with such iconic characters in each other's films, their films might appeal to a wider fanbase and become more successful.

According to a source close to Pinkvilla, "Aditya Chopra plans to take things to the next level by mounting a two hero action spectacle featuring Tiger and Pathaan. It would be the first proper 2 hero collaboration for the two mighty Khan since the release of Karan Arjun (1995). Adi has been working on this idea for a while now and he will be extensively working on the script, screenplay and dialogues."

"Both SRK and Salman have kept their bulk dates vacant in the tentative period and the exact logistics will be locked once a combined narration takes place later this year. The director is also undecided, however, the entire creative control on the writing front is by the head of YRF - Aditya Chopra. He is keeping everything close to his chest at the moment," the source further added.

The SRK and Salman starrer will be the costliest film. It's narration will also begin once the first cut of 'Pathaan' and 'Tiger 3' is finalized, Pinkvilla reported.

Fans can gear up for a mega-budget grand film. As for those who are not aware, 'Karan Arjun' was also one the biggest blockbusters of the year 1995 and starred Shah Rukh and Salman in titular roles.

According to box office records, the film was second to only 'Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge' in terms of the collection in 1995.

Now, we'll have to wait and see what this YRF Salman and Shah Rukh starrer will bring.
