According to a report in Pinkvilla, Salman Khan and director Atlee are in talks for a new feature film, set to be produced by Sun Pictures.Over the past year, Khan and Atlee have been exploring various collaboration ideas, and they seem to have found a subject that suits both their styles. Salman Khan has agreed in principle, and Atlee is currently developing the screenplay.
The report also mentioned that Atlee is set to present the full script to Salman within a month, after which they will finalize the shooting schedule. The film is expected to start production in early 2025. Atlee aims to create a major Pan-India spectacle, featuring Salman Khan alongside a leading South Indian superstar.

Although there were rumours that the film might be the same project Atlee once envisioned with Allu Arjun, sources confirm it is a new, original script created specifically for Salman and a leading South Indian star. While Atlee and Allu Arjun’s previous project was set in a historical context, this new film promises a fresh, larger-than-life cinematic experience that will surprise audiences.
The agreement is not finalized yet, as the signing will only occur once Atlee completes the screenplay. All parties involved have expressed a strong interest in collaborating, and a clearer picture is expected within the next 30 days after further meetings and narration sessions. A joint narration with Salman Khan and the top South Indian star will take place once Atlee finalizes the script, as both superstars have tentatively agreed based on the concept.
The untitled film will be Atlee’s next project following the blockbuster success of Jawan, featuring Shah Rukh Khan, Nayanthara, and Vijay Sethupathi. Atlee is currently focused on developing the screenplay for this ambitious Pan-India spectacle. Stay tuned to Pinkvilla for more updates.
