After Sikandar, Salman Khan and Atlee’s actioner to release in 2nd half of 2026? Here's what we know

As a lifestyle expert with years of experience in the film industry, I must say that the collaboration between Salman Khan and Atlee Kumar is undoubtedly one of the most anticipated films of the next few years. With Salman’s charismatic presence and Atlee’s knack for creating blockbusters, this movie is destined to be a massive hit.


Right now, Salman Khan is working diligently on his upcoming film titled Sikandar. At present, he’s fully focused on this project, but it has been announced that he will collaborate with director Atlee Kumar for an action movie in the future. This new venture will feature Kamal Haasan as a co-star, and according to reports, the film is set to be released in the second half of 2026.

Every year, Salman Khan typically releases a film over the Eid weekend. However, this tradition might not carry on in 2026. Instead, Salman Khan aims to finish his upcoming film, Sikandar, by the end of this year and immediately start shooting for another movie directed by Atlee Kumar. Recently, Bollywood Hungama announced that the project by Salman Khan and Atlee Kumar, a mass entertainer, won’t be ready for Eid 2026. Instead, it appears that Shah Rukh Khan is planning to debut his action film, King, during the festive season that year.

According to a reliable insider, Salman Khan is planning to complete his movie titled “Sikandar” by December 2024. Following that, he will begin work on another film directed by Atlee, not until the year 2025. This upcoming project, anticipated as an extravagant spectacle, is slated for shooting throughout the entirety of 2025. Post-production, including extensive Visual Effects (VFX), is expected to take considerable time, thus pushing back the release date. Consequently, their next film will be unveiled during the second half of 2026, foregoing the traditional Eid premiere. It’s worth noting that industry professionals were already apprised of these timelines, which explains the numerous early announcements.

Simultaneously with Shah Rukh Khan finalizing the release of King, Sanjay Leela Bhansali is anticipated to unveil his upcoming production, Love and War, on the same day. Earlier in the year, a source revealed to TopMob that “This film is a full-fledged two-lead venture requiring authentic stars. Both Kamal Haasan and Salman Khan have embraced the concept proposed by Atlee and are eager for this partnership. In principle, they’ve agreed, but they’ll sign on officially after hearing the complete script later this month.

Are you looking forward to witnessing the enchantment Atlee will weave on the silver screen alongside Salman and Haasan, especially after setting such high standards with Jawan?
