New Delhi: In a riveting development, there are exclusive reports from Pinkvilla regarding the upcoming cinematic clash of two of Bollywood's biggest stars, Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan, for an epic face-off in "Tiger vs. Pathaan." The revelation comes on the heels of Aditya Chopra, the visionary producer, and storyteller, personally narrating the script to both the iconic actors in separate meetings over a month ago. According to sources close to the production, the script received an unequivocal green light from both Khan superstars, marking the official confirmation of the movie's storyline. "The script was narrated to SRK and Salman separately in different meetings by Aditya Chopra, and it has been an instant thumbs up for both the giants. Tiger vs. Pathaan will unleash a different dynamic of two super spies, Tiger and Pathaan, and both Salman and Shah Rukh are excited for a face-off in this Siddharth Anand directorial," disclosed a source privy to the development. Contrary to media speculations of a joint narration for SRK and Salman at Yash Raj Films, sources have clarified that each actor received an individual and independent presentation of the script in August. With the script officially locked, the film's production team will embark on preparations in November, following the release of "Tiger 3" during the Diwali festival. A rigorous five-month preparation period is on the horizon, culminating in the commencement of filming in March 2024. This schedule is set to provide the ideal foundation for the production team to execute the film's grand vision. This collaboration between Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan is a monumental moment in Bollywood history, marking their return to shared cinematic space after a remarkable three decades since "Karan Arjun." Given their status as two of the industry's most influential and beloved figures, the expectation for an exceptional script was paramount. "It’s a huge milestone for the banner because it marks a reunion of two giants from Indian Cinema on a full-fledged film 30 years after their first collaboration on 'Karan Arjun.' The union of Salman and SRK warrants a strong script, and post the positive feedback in the individual narrations, Aditya Chopra and the team are now all set to take the film on floors by March/April. The team is confident that 'Tiger vs. Pathaan' will live onto the mammoth expectations of the audience," stated the source with confidence. Directed by the visionary Siddharth Anand, "Tiger vs. Pathaan" is poised to become the magnum opus of Indian Cinema. It is an integral component of the Yash Raj Films Spy Universe, a cinematic realm inaugurated by the blockbuster "Tiger" franchise starring Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif. The success continued with "War," featuring Hrithik Roshan and Tiger Shroff, followed by "Pathaan," headlined by Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone, and John Abraham, shattering all box office records.
