After Sikandar, Salman Khan has reportedly teamed up with Apoorva Lakhia for his next project and he will be seen as an army officer. The movie is reportedly based on the Galwan Valley clash and the team will soon start shooting. As per reports, the makers have roped in a talented actress from Housefull 5 as the female lead.
According to India Today, Chitrangda Singh will be seen as the female lead alongside Salman Khan and it also marks their first collaboration. Neither the makers nor Chitrangda have confirmed or denied these reports yet.
According to a report by Pinkvilla, Salman will star alongside three actors from the younger generation. A source said, “Apoorva Lakhia and Salman Khan are all set to start shooting for the film from July 2025. The film will be shot in Ladakh and Mumbai, over a period of 70-days starting July. It features Salman Khan as an army officer in a full fledged film for the first time in his career, and he will be joined by 3 other actors from the younger generation.”
“At the moment, the film is on track to go on floors in July 2025. This will be Salman Khan’s next, until and unless there is a major turn of events in the week to come by. Salman believes that this is a terrific script, and the story has scope to make for a big screen experience. He often runs against the tide, and has shown his faith on Apoorva Lakhia for a sincere retelling of the real-life conflict. The casting for other key characters will begin shortly,” the source added.
On the work front, Salman Khan was last seen in Sikandar alongside Rashmika Mandanna, Sathyaraj, Kajal Aggarwal, Sharman Joshi, Prateik Babbar, Kishore, Jatin Sarna and Sanjay Kapoor.
