It appears that Salman Khan and Atlee’s plans of teaming up are moving in the right direction. After a series of discussions, the filmmaker worked on developing a two-hero subject that piqued the superstar’s curiosity. Pleased with the director’s narrative, the actor has reportedly given his nod to the subject. What makes it interesting is that the parallel lead demands a senior actor. Atlee is keen on roping in veteran actor Kamal Haasan for the part, making it a casting coup of sorts. The southern superstar is currently preoccupied with his next, Thug Life, with renowned filmmaker Mani Ratnam. If he approves the script, Atlee will begin the pre-production on the yet-untitled pan-India offering. It is being said that Salman too will connect with Haasan to convince him to come on board the mega entertainer. While plot details are being kept under wraps, sources claim the layered narrative has a good mix of romance, comedy, drama, action and music. The Jawan director is planning to take the movie on floors early next year. By then, Salman will wrap up his next, Sikandar, and Haasan will also be through with Thug Life and Shankar’s Indian 3. Salman also makes a cameo in Atlee’s maiden production venture, Baby John, which stars Varun Dhawan.
