25 May 2023, Mumbai: Exciting news for Bollywood fans! After a long wait of 14 years, the dynamic duo of Saif Ali Khan and Vivek Oberoi is set to share the screen once again. The last time we witnessed their brilliant chemistry was in the critically acclaimed films “Kurbaan” (2009) and the cult-classic “Omkara” (2006), not to mention their collaboration in the horror flick “Darna Mana Hai” (2003).
The Fab Duo is Back!
This time, the two powerhouse performers will be joining forces in an upcoming action-packed film helmed by the talented Siddharth Anand. Anand has been enjoying a stellar year, with his recent release “Pathaan” becoming the highest-grossing Bollywood film ever. Adding to his list of anticipated projects, “Fighter” and “Tiger vs Pathaan” are also expected to make a huge impact. However, Anand’s collaboration with Saif Ali Khan after 16 years is creating quite a buzz. The previous collaborations between Saif and Vivek include the films “Salaam Namaste” and “Ta Ra Rum Pum.” Now, with Vivek Oberoi on board for the new project, fans are eager to see their chemistry reignited. According to our sources, the film is scheduled to be shot in New York City in December. While it remains unclear what role Vivek will portray in the franchise, speculations range from a formidable villain to a supporting character. It’s an exciting prospect to witness whether Saif Ali Khan and Vivek Oberoi will team up or face off against each other on the big screen.
In an interesting twist, Siddharth Anand will not be directing the film himself. Instead, he will produce it under his company Marflix Productions, entrusting the directorial responsibilities to one of his assistant directors. The project promises to have a grand scale, and if all goes well, there are plans to expand it into a franchise. While the film’s title is yet to be revealed, industry insiders suggest that it will revolve around a daring rescue operation led by Saif Ali Khan’s character. As for its distribution, the film will be available on Netflix, marking Saif’s return to the streaming platform since his acclaimed series “Sacred Games.” Fans are eagerly awaiting further information about Siddharth Anand and Saif Ali Khan’s exciting new venture. Will it be reminiscent of Chris Hemsworth’s thrilling “Extraction”? Only time will tell.
