Superstar Salman Khan and legendary actor Kamal Haasan are reportedly in talks to headline a mega-budget action thriller helmed by renowned director Atlee. In a recent scoop reported by Pinkvilla, it has been revealed that director Atlee is not just eyeing a grand action thriller with Salman Khan, but also intends to rope in Kamal Haasan for what promises to be a cinematic extravaganza. Sources close to the development have disclosed that Atlee has been engaged in discussions with both superstars for several months, with plans progressing positively.
“It’s a pure two-hero feature film, which warrants the presence of genuine superstars. Both Kamal Haasan and Salman Khan have loved the idea that Atlee is working on and are excited for this collaboration,” shared a source privy to the ongoing negotiations. While the initial response has been affirmative, final agreements are contingent on the actors hearing the complete narration later this month.
“Atlee has set his sights on creating the biggest action spectacle of Indian cinema, and discussions with these two megastars are a crucial step towards realizing that vision,” added the source, underscoring the magnitude and anticipation surrounding the project.
“A big technical team will also come on board the yet untitled film and the groundwork to assemble this team will commence once Salman Khan and Kamal Haasan sign the dotted lines,” shared a source familiar with the project. While specific details about the film’s plot and character sketches remain tightly under wraps, insiders suggest that the goal is to create a movie that not only resonates with Indian audiences but also elevates Indian cinema on a global platform.
If all goes as planned, Atlee’s action thriller will start filming early next year, offering audiences a cross-cultural cinematic treat unlike before.
