Actor Salman Khan is preparing for the upcoming release of his latest film, Sikandar. The renowned superstar is once again aligning his release with the Eid celebrations, as the film directed by AR Murugadoss is set to premiere this weekend. Prior to the film's debut, the 59-year-old actor engaged with the media during a group interaction at a hotel in Mumbai on Wednesday, where he discussed his rumored partnership with another South Indian director, Atlee, and revealed some exciting new information.

Salman Khan on his upcoming films

Salman was speculated to be collaborating with Atlee, who made his entry into Bollywood with Shah Rukh Khan's Jawan. However, subsequent reports indicated that the project had been postponed. During a recent discussion, Salman confirmed this, stating, "He has penned a very high-budget action film. The project with Atlee is delayed due to budgetary concerns. I am uncertain whether it will feature Rajinikanth or Kamal Haasan."

In a conversation about performing intense action sequences in his late 50s for Sikandar, Salman mentioned, "I am set to undertake another major action film following Sikandar. The action in that film will be on a different scale, characterized by its rustic nature." When asked for further details about the film, he revealed, "I am collaborating with my elder brother in the industry...Sanjay Dutt." He also noted that the director and producer for this project have yet to be determined.

Regarding his future projects, Salman addressed the rumors about a film with Sooraj Barjatya, confirming, "That will take place once he completes his current project." Barjatya is presently engaged in a film featuring Ayushmann Khurrana, which is expected to be released in 2026.

Salman encouraged audiences to visit theaters to see Sikandar, along with other films debuting this week. "I hope that those who are employed receive generous bonuses for Eid, allowing them to enjoy Sikandar, Mohanlal sir's L2: Empuraan, and Sunny Deol's latest release (Jaat). Three major stars are presenting significant films, and I wish for all of them to succeed," he remarked.

Sikandar features Rashmika Mandanna, Kajal Aggarwal, Sathyaraj, and Sharman Joshi. The film is set to premiere in theaters on May 30, coinciding with the Eid celebrations.
