Salman Khan has had a busy year at work. While his previous film, Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan, failed to click with the audience, the superstar promises to return to the box office with a bang with Tiger 3 on Diwali this year. Anticipation regarding his next lineup of films has kept fans on their toes. Rumours were rife that Salman has teamed up with director Vishnuvardhan and producer Karan Johar for a big-screen entertainer.
According to Pinkvilla's report, Salman will be headlining Vishnuvardhan's second Bollywood directorial. While an official announcement is awaited, it seems the superstar has started his preparation for the film already. As per Pinkvilla's latest report, the yet-to-be-titled project will go on floors in November this year. Salman reportedly plays a paramilitary officer.
A source close to the development informed Pinkvilla, "Salman plays a paramilitary officer in Vishnuvardhan's next film and has already gotten into the prep mode for the film. He will be sporting a certain look in the film, which also requires him to lose some weight, and its all work in progress at the moment."
The source further added, "The first schedule will be around a month long from mid-November to mid-December, following which Salman would take his year-end break. He returns to the sets by January 10 for another 30 to 45-day schedule before calling it a break on the film."
On August 20, Salman was spotted in the city sporting a new look. His bald look made a debut during the outing and viral pictures and videos gave birth to various speculations. It appears Salman will be seen bald in the untitled film. Apart from the Dharma Productions' film, Salman will be seen in YRF's Tiger Vs Pathaan with Shah Rukh Khan and a family drama with Sooraj Barjatya which is tentatively titled Prem Ki Shaadi.
The shoot of Tiger Vs Pathaan is expected to begin by March/April 2024. The schedule will tentatively end in May and soon after, he'll resume work on Vishnuvardhan's film by June and wrap up it up by July end. If there's a delay in the YRF Spy Universe film, the superstar will finish Karan Johar's film by Summer and then dive into the other project.
