Allu Arjun, Atlee and Salman Khan
After months of speculation that Salman Khan would headline Atlee’s next directorial venture, we have learned that Allu Arjun, who is lovingly called Salman Khan of the south, has been confirmed for the mega-budget, two-hero period saga. The film will be backed by Sun Pictures, which produced Vijay’s Sarkar (2018), and Rajinikanth’s Jailer (2023), and his upcoming Coolie. It is being reported that the film will be made on a mega scale with a staggering budget of over R600 crores. It will feature an ensemble cast, including three leading ladies, with Janhvi Kapoor reportedly on board. Due to delays in Allu’s mythological epic with Trivikram Srinivas, Atlee’s film has been expedited as the actor wants to wrap it before March 2026.
