Salman Khan or Hrithik Roshan?-Atlee Kumar planning big after opting out of Allu Arjun movie

Tollywood fans have been pretty upset ever since Atlee Kumar’s next movie with Allu Arjun was shelved. According to reports Geetha Arts decided to drop the project after the Jawan director named a hefty remuneration of 80 crores for directing the film. Now there is a strong buzz that he is planning to rope in a Bollywood biggie like Salman Khan or Hrithik Roshan to work in his movie.

Salman is already working with AR Murugadoss for Sikandar but has not announced any new project other than that. On the other hand, Hrithik Roshan has two big-budget movies in the production phase – War 2 and Krrish 4 and he is busy working on them. So most probably he is not ready to give a nod for Atlee’s movie.

However, a new buzz says that Atlee has already discussed the project with Salman Khan and Bollywood’s Sultan is ready to work with the famous Southern director. Telugu 360 has reported that Sun Pictures is on board as the producer and has agreed to pay a big sum as remuneration to both Atlee and Salman Khan. The team will kick off the shooting next year after the Bollywood superstar has completed his shooting for Sikandar in March 2025. Sikandar is scheduled to hit the theaters on Eid next year.

Interestingly, if the news about Salman and Atlee’s collaboration is true then it will be the first time that the Bharat actor will be teaming up with South Indian directors back to back in his entire career. Previously he has worked with Prabhu Deva who helped him deliver a megahit Wanted when Salman’s career was going through a rough phase.

Prabhu Deva has also directed Salman Khan in Dabangg 3 and Radhe. While Dabangg received mixed responses, Radhe failed to impress the audience.
