Salman Khan teams up with National-Award winning director Vamshi Paidipally, Dil Raju; shooting from April 2026 Actor Salman Khan is set to collaborate with National Award-winning director Vamshi Paidipally and producer Dil Raju for a high-octane action drama. The yet-untitled project marks the first time the trio is coming together and is scheduled to go on floors in April 2026. While the makers are yet to reveal details about the film’s storyline, casting, and technical crew, the announcement has already generated strong interest across trade and fan circles given the scale typically associated with Dil Raju’s productions and Vamshi Paidipally’s track record with mainstream entertainers. For Salman Khan, the project arrives at an important point in his career trajectory. His post-pandemic theatrical releases have not delivered the kind of box office impact historically associated with his films. His most recent big-screen outing, Sikandar, directed by AR Murugadoss and produced by Sajid Nadiadwala, also featured Rashmika Mandanna in a leading role. At present, Salman Khan is occupied with promotions for his upcoming film Maatrubhumi: May War Rest In Peace, earlier titled Battle of Galwan. Directed by Apoorva Lakia and co-starring Chitrangda Singh, the film is scheduled to release on August 14, 2026. It was initially planned for an April 17, 2026 release but was reportedly postponed due to patchwork and reshoot requirements.
