Bollywood superstar Salman Khan is set to star in an epic period drama under the direction of Atlee, following the immense success of Jawan.
The upcoming project, tentatively titled A6, is generating significant excitement as it promises to be a high-octane action thriller, featuring both historical and contemporary storylines.
Directed by Atlee, known for his mastery in action-packed, emotionally charged narratives, A6 is being hailed as a two-hero saga, with the possibility of either Kamal Haasan or Rajinikanth being cast in the parallel lead role.
Although casting has yet to be confirmed, the prospect of such iconic actors joining forces with Salman Khan has sparked considerable anticipation in the industry.
Sources close to the film reveal that A6 will weave a reincarnation-driven plot, set across two distinct time periods – past and present. Salman Khan’s character will portray a fierce warrior in the historical timeline, a role which promises to deliver intense action and drama.
The details surrounding the modern-day narrative are still under wraps, but the film’s period elements are expected to take center stage, with a significant focus on high-stakes conflict and a fantasy world full of breathtaking visuals.
Atlee, who has been working on the script and development for over a year, is committed to creating a cinematic experience that will captivate audiences.
The film’s budget is expected to be substantial, supporting cutting-edge visuals and an immersive storyline that will transport viewers to a world of intense drama. The project will be produced by Sun Pictures and is set to be a major release in 2026.

Filming for A6 is scheduled to begin in Summer 2025, with Atlee aiming to finalize the cast by the end of this year.
The collaboration between Salman Khan and Atlee is anticipated to push the boundaries of Indian cinema, particularly in the reincarnation genre, where Khan will be making his return to the theme after his iconic role in Karan Arjun (1995).
Apart from A6, Salman Khan will also appear in an extended cameo in the upcoming Christmas 2025 release Baby John, starring Varun Dhawan, ensuring that fans will be treated to his presence on the big screen in the near future.
With A6 already creating buzz and expectations running high, this collaboration between Atlee and Salman Khan is set to be one of the most anticipated films in Indian cinema.
