Salman Khan and Atlee Kumar Set to Release High-Voltage Action Film in 2026 – New Details Unveiled
Salman Khan is currently immersed in the final stages of his film Sikandar. While wrapping up this project, he is also gearing up for a thrilling new collaboration with acclaimed director Atlee Kumar. Their upcoming film, which will also feature the legendary Kamal Haasan, is slated for a release in late 2026.
Breaking from his tradition of releasing films around Eid, Salman Khan’s schedule for this new venture will be unique. He plans to complete Sikandar by the end of 2024 and then transition to the Atlee Kumar project. Production for this highly anticipated film is expected to commence in 2025 and continue through the year. Given the significant special effects work required, the film’s release is projected for the latter half of 2026. This means it will miss the Eid release window, with Shah Rukh Khan’s action-packed movie King set to take that spot.
According to sources close to the film, Salman Khan is committed to finishing Sikandar by December 2024 before starting on the Atlee Kumar project. Both Salman and Kamal Haasan are excited about this collaboration, having enthusiastically endorsed the film’s storyline. Finalizing the script and agreements is expected to take place later this month.
Alongside Salman Khan’s and Atlee Kumar’s film, other major releases are planned for Eid 2026, including Shah Rukh Khan’s King and Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Love and War. With these high-profile films on the horizon, excitement in the film industry is palpable. Fans are eagerly anticipating Atlee Kumar’s next blockbuster, especially in the wake of his recent success with Jawan.
