Salman Khan is gearing up for his next film with director Apoorva Lakhia. As per latest reports, Salman will team up with actress Chitrangda Singh in the upcoming film.
According to sources cited by India Today, Chitrangda has been chosen to play the female lead opposite Salman Khan in the action drama that has not yet been given a title. The film’s intense and realistic tone is further enhanced by rumours that it takes inspiration from actual military events.
The project, which was directed by Apoorva Lakhia, is said to be based on actual events. The film has already created buzz for its intriguing premise and stellar cast, even though specifics regarding the plot are still being kept under wraps.
Notably, this marks the first on-screen collaboration between Salman Khan and Chitrangda Singh, adding an element of freshness to the pairing and heightening anticipation around the film.
According to an earlier report by Pinkvilla, Salman Khan is set to collaborate with director Apoorva Lakhia for an upcoming army thriller inspired by the book India’s Most Fearless 3. Based on the actual events of the 2020 Galwan Valley conflict, the movie is anticipated to show the Indian Armed Forces’ incredible bravery and sacrifices during that time.
The project is expected to start filming in July 2025, according to sources the publication cited. It was revealed that the filming would begin in July and would span about 70 days, shooting in various locations in Mumbai and Ladakh. The 70-day schedule has been planned to meet the logistical and narrative demands of the film, which is said to centre on a story that develops over two nights. Additionally, according to the source, this would be Salman Khan’s first official role in a feature film as an army officer. Three younger actors are rumoured to be joining him, giving the cast a multigenerational dynamic.
Meanwhile, Salman was last seen in Sikandar which released on March 30, 2025. It also starred Rashmika Mandanna, Shreyas Talpade, Pratik Smita Patil, and others. Whereas Chitrangda was recently seen in Housefull 5, currently running in theatres.
