Salman Khan’s film with Atlee will be an epic period drama film like ‘Magadheera’

Superstar Salman Khan has reportedly teamed up with Atlee for an epic drama similar to the reincarnation period SS Rajamoulis ‘Magadheera’. The ambitious mega-budget film has been in the works for over a year and spans two striking timelines – past and present.

Megastar Rajinikanth or Kamal Haasan are considered to play parallel leads in the period film. The fantasy romantic action drama film promises stunning visuals from a fictional world Salman Khan like a warrior like never before.

Although details of the current plot are still under wraps, this project will be a cinematic spectacle! If everything falls into place, Salman Khan will play a warrior for the second time after Veer. Although Veer was a box office dud, fans have high hopes for the untitled film which is in the works for over a year.

While Zareen Khan romanced Salman in Veer, the lead is yet to be finalised, reports said. The makers are said to be looking for a stunning actress like Kajal Agarwal who portrayed Indu in Ram Charans ‘Magadheera’.

While Magadheera was a blockbuster and catapulted Ram Charan to superstardom, other reincarnation films have often failed to impress audiences. A glaring example was late actor Sushant Singh Rajput and Kriti Sanon’s ‘Raabta’ which was an epic box office failure.

But fans are hopeful that Salman Khan will pull off the role of a warrior and impress the audience under Atlee’s direction.
On the work front, Salman Khan is currently shuttling between the shoots of his upcoming film ‘Sikandar’ and Bigg boss season 18. The Bollywood ‘Sultan’ also has a couple more films lined up in his kitty.

On the other hand, Atlee is yet to announce his next after the smashing success of ‘Jawan’ with the superstar Shah Rukh Khan.
