Pathaan Vs Tiger: Big News! Deepika Padukone And Katrina Kaif To Collaborate With Salman Khan And Shah Rukh Khan; Will Go On Floor In January

Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan co-starred in the movie 'Pathaan' in January of this year. The two were an instant hit after reprising their roles as 'Pathaan' and 'Tiger,' and the audience seemed to want more. The unveiling of the project 'Pathaan Vs Tiger' was prompted by the demand for the two megastars to appear in a full-length movie together. Now that we have more information, we know that the movie's creators hope to start production in January 2024.

A well-placed industry source revealed details, “Everything is locked for Pathaan Vs Tiger. In fact, the makers are looking to commence work in January next year, with Siddharth Anand directing the venture.” Further detailing the cast, he adds, “Joining Shah Rukh Khan and Salman will be their co-stars from Pathaan and Tiger, viz.

While the cast is undoubtedly exciting, the movie's name, 'Pathaan Vs Tiger,' has generated a lot of speculation, including if SRK and Salman will face off in the project. However, the source dispels these rumours, saying, “Though the title is ‘Pathaan Vs Tiger’ the film will not be based on a rivalry between the two spies. Instead, the film will feature one common villain that the two actors will be pitted against. In fact, Siddharth plans on getting an equally big star name to play the arch-villain to them.” (Also Read: Happy Birthday Karan Johar: Filmmaker Shares First Posters Of His Upcoming Film ‘Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani’ On His BIG DAY!)
