In contrast to the news reports suggesting that film producer Aditya Chopra was planning a joint narration of "Tiger Vs Pathaan" for Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan at Yash Raj Films (YRF), it is exclusively learned that this highly anticipated film has already been individually presented to the two superstars in separate meetings over a month ago.
Furthermore, sources close to us confirm that following Aditya Chopra's narration to these megastars, the script has been finalized. With this, the "Tiger vs Pathaan" team can commence its preparations in November and start the shoot of the film in March next year.
“Tiger vs Pathaan’s script is locked after the two mega-stars of Hindi cinema gave their nod to the script. This film is a huge milestone moment because it sees the two giants of Indian cinema come together for a full-fledged film after their box office juggernaut Karan Arjun. They had to first love the script and be convinced that it has the goods to satisfy the expectations of people about their big on-screen reunion,” a source close to the development told us.
“Furthermore, Aditya Chopra held individual meetings with Shah Rukh Khan and Salman respectively, and narrated the film to them. The superstars have loved the story and the film will now go on floors in March!” revealed a trade source to us.
Tiger vs Pathaan: Details in Brief
Helmed by director Siddharth Anand, "Tiger vs Pathaan" forms an integral part of the legendary YRF Spy Universe, which had its inception with the Tiger franchise, featuring Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif, commencing with "Ek Tha Tiger" in 2012 and "Tiger Zinda Hai" in 2017. This successful spy saga continued to soar with "War" in 2019, featuring Hrithik Roshan and Tiger Shroff.

The forthcoming installment in this prestigious spy franchise is "Tiger 3," eagerly anticipated for release in November, coinciding with the festival of Diwali.
