Will Atlee’s Next Movie Feature Salman Khan & Rajinikanth?

Atlee catapulted to fame in Bollywood with his debut film, Jawan, featuring Shah Rukh Khan, which became a blockbuster in 2023. Building on this success, Atlee is now reportedly gearing up to unite South Indian superstar Rajinikanth and Bollywood icon Salman Khan in his next pan-India project.

According to a report by Bollywood Hungama, sources close to Atlee have confirmed that the director is planning an ambitious project featuring both Salman Khan and Rajinikanth. This collaboration aims to create a landmark film in Indian cinema, combining the massive fanbases of both superstars.

The meeting between Atlee, Rajinikanth, and Khan is anticipated to take place next month. “Sun Pictures will be producing the film and they share a family-like bond with superstar Rajinikanth. Atlee, on the other hand, has been in touch with Salman Khan for the last two years. They are confident of getting both Rajinikanth and Salman Khan on board,” a source revealed. 

While the film’s title remains undecided, production is slated to begin by the end of 2024. Khan is expected to start working on the Atlee film after completing his current project, Sikandar. Rajinikanth will join after completing his commitments with Coolie. “It is a combination to be remembered for generations,” added the source.

In the meantime, Salman Khan is gearing up for the release of Sikandar. The film, set to release around Eid, will also feature Rashmika Mandanna. Rajinikanth, on the other hand, is completing his film Coolie, directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, before joining Atlee’s ambitious project.
