Salman Khan - Atlee Film Is A Mega Budget Reincarnation Action Drama

Filmmaker Atlee, who delivered a blockbuster film, Jawan, with Shah Rukh Khan in 2023, has reportedly united with superstar Salman Khan for a movie. Atlee's sixth directorial is expected to star Salman in a pivotal role. The buzz is that it is going to be an epic two-hero saga, with the director considering Kamal Haasan or Rajinikanth as the parallel lead alongside Khan.

According to recent reports, Salman Khan's upcoming film with Atlee is a mega-budget reincarnation action drama. The movie is reportedly set in two distinct eras - past and present. Atlee is aiming for a never-seen-before period set up with breathtaking visuals of a fictional world. The focus of the film will be more towards the period portions than the present, as the script demands more of drama and conflict in the fictional fantasy world.

The characters in the Atlee directorial will be interlinked from past and present. The two-hero epic saga is expected to go on floors by Summer 2025. As of now, the filmmaker needs time to finish the script and pre-production of the film. It is going to be produced by Sun Pictures and will be shot over one year.

Salman Khan is looking forward to the theatrical release of Sikandar, which is scheduled to hit the screens on Eid 2025. The superstar plays the lead role in the AR Murugadoss film alongside Rashmika Mandanna, Prateik Babbar, Sathyaraj, and others. This film with Atlee is being touted as Salman's big project in 2026.
