Salman was in discussions with director Karan Johar for an interesting project that will hit theatres in 2024 on Eid earlier in April, before to the release of the Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan starring Salman Khan. According to a reliable source in the industry who informed us of the development, Salman was considering many scripts but had a particular interest in one from Dharma Productions.
The film in question would be a big-budget comedy that would do credit to Salman Khan and his Eid release special, however details were kept securely under wraps at the time. We’ve heard that Salman and Karan have made some progress on the idea, so that’s good. According to a source, ““Talks between the two have been going on for a while; in fact, the latest update is that Shershaah director Vishnu Vardhan has apparently been finalized to direct the venture. Though the proverbial dotted line is yet to be signed between all concerned parties, progress has been steady.” Ask for details on the film and the source continues, “The film will see Salman Khan and Karan Johar coming together after a gap of 25 years, though there were reports that the actor had signed on for Shuddhi, the venture never really panned out. Given this fact, and of course the fact that the venture would release on Eid, the makers are sure to pull out all stops to ensure its grandeur.”
Salman Khan is now basking in the success of his most recent film, Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan, but the upcoming project with Karan is reportedly still in the early phases of development. It’s interesting to note that in addition to this project, Salman will appear later this year in Maneesh Sharma’s Tiger 3 from the YRF spy world.
