Salman Khan was last seen in YRF's Tiger 3, which also starred Katrina Kaif and Emraan Hashmi. It was the third installment in Salman and Katrina's Tiger franchise. The spy action film didn't perform as well as expected at the box office. In fact, Salman has been struggling for quite some time to deliver a big blockbuster at the box office. Amidst all this, a new update has come out about his next project. The superstar is all set to reprise his role as the Devil in Kick 2.
Kick was released in 2014 and was one of the biggest hits of that year. Directed by Sajid Nadiadwala, the film also starred Jacqueline Fernandez, Randeep Hooda, and Nawazuddin Siddiqui. For quite some time, there has been speculation that Salman and Sajid might join hands again with Kick 2. However, no further update came out on these rumours.
Sajid Nadiadwala, as reported by Mid-day, is currently working on the Kick 2 script. The director also has to figure out how he dedicates his time, as he also has several movies under his production banner. Nadiadwala wants that the process of making Kick 2 be smooth and that he gets enough time to work on the sequel. The source added that Salman Khan and Sajid are excited to join forces again for the sequel.
Kick 2 won't be the only movie Salman Khan is doing for Sajid Nadiadwala. The superstar is currently busy with Sikandar, an action thriller directed by AR Murugadoss. Also starring Rashmika Mandanna and Sathyaraj, the film is produced by Sajid's production house, Nadiadwala Grandson. The movie will hit theatres during Eid next year. It looks like Salman is ready to rule the box office again, with an Eid release and then getting all set to be back as the Devil.
Sikandar and Kick 2 aren't the only big projects in which Salman Khan is involved. YRF's Spy Universe will have an action-packed crossover between Salman's Tiger and Shah Rukh Khan's Pathaan. A spy movie called Tiger Vs Pathaan is also being planned, where the superstars will be at loggerheads. Considering their massive fandom and the response they received for their cameo in each other's movie last year, it is going to be a big win for them, especially Salman Khan.
