Shah Rukh and Salman Khan in Aditya Chopra directed film?

Here’s some BIG news. Yash Raj Films, a banner that is not known to hype even their biggest of announcements, is uncharacteristically hyping their new announcement on Yash Chopra’s birthday.

Now, a news-daily has quoted a source that the film could feature (hold your breath) Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan in the lead.

A source said “It is the same film for which Ranveer Singh was earlier being considered. Adi felt that the Shah Rukh-Salman combo would work wonders at the box-office and so, decided to sign Salman instead of Ranveer. Shah Rukh has already given his nod to him.”

The film is said to be a romantic thriller that will go on floors by the end of 2016.

“The script is ready and both the superstars have liked it. However, the female lead is yet to be finalised. The details will be revealed when Adi decides to make an official announcement. But as of now, both the actors seem enthused about their on-screen reunion” the source said.

Shah Rukh and Salman, two of the biggest superstars in the country, were last seen together in films like ‘Hum Tumhare Hain Sanam’ and ‘Karan Arjun’.

But given their current standing in the industry, it simply cannot get bigger than this.. if the rumour turns out to be true.

Announcement in less than 10 hours.. sharp at 12AM Indian Standard Time. Stay tuned to Indicine!
