Salman Khan has locked in his next biggie with director Apoorva Lakhia (Bhai at the Border, May 2). Word on the street is that the film is an army-laced action thriller, inspired by the novel India’s Most Fearless 3, and set against the high-stakes backdrop of the 2020 Galwan Valley Conflict. This marks Salman’s first full-blown avatar as an army officer — uniform, grit, and all. Cameras are set to roll in July, with a packed 70-day shoot schedule spanning the rugged terrains of Ladakh and the hustle of Mumbai. Once that wraps, there’s chatter that Salman may reunite with Kabir Khan for an original drama — rumoured to be the much-hyped second instalment of Bajrangi Bhaijaan. But as always in Bollywood, nothing is official until it’s official.
