He also said that the film would be officially announced later with the rest of the details. Another addition to the list is a Bajrangi Bhaijaan sequel, known to be roaming around in rumours for a long time. It is not confirmed when the sequel of this blockbuster film would happen but the film is currently in the writing stage right now.

Salman Khan Shelved Movies

Among his upcoming movies, many biggies were once thought to be surely happening but now have been put on hold or shelved. These films include Tiger vs Pathaan and Jawan director Atlee’s next. Tiger vs Pathaan once carried a huge buzz among both Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan fans before the release of Tiger 3 but is currently not happening. Tiger 3 is remembered as a box office underperformer, collecting Rs 260 crores India nett, lesser than its prequel Tiger Zinda Hai.

Talking about his movie with Atlee, Salman Khan said, "I don't think it's happening right now. It was happening at one point of time. We tried really hard to work it out, but somehow it didn't happen. I believe it was the budget of the film. It's a very high budget film. So, now the film has been pushed."

Atlee is a Tamil director who became popular in the whole nation post his 2023 All Time Blockbuster Pan-India film Jawan starring Shah Rukh Khan in the lead with a double role. The film featured an ensemble cast of actors from both Bollywood and Kollywood which made it accepted nationwide at the box office.The film collected over Rs 554 crores at the box office, being the highest grosser of Shah Rukh Khan’s career and the highest grossing Hindi film of 2023.
