"After Singham Again [2024] released, he began developing this project while the Golmaal 5 script gets locked. He wants to go beyond the cop stories and the comedy franchise. A few preliminary meetings with John have taken place. If the dates work out and the draft is ready, the slick actioner could roll as early as April. A final call will be taken by March," a source told the tabloid.

If things fall in place, this will be John's first professional collaboration with Rohit. The current plan is apparently to shoot the film on a straight schedule of over 45 days in Mumbai. "The actor and director have discussed possible dates. They both are keen to shoot it over the summer after which Rohit will move to Khatron Ke Khiladi 15 shoot," the source added.
