Salman Khan in Talks with The Family Man Directors Raj & DK for Action-Comedy

In a collaboration that could bring a fresh wave of quirky action-comedy to the big screen, Megastar Salman Khan is reportedly in discussions with the acclaimed director duo Raj & DK. The news, first broken as an exclusive by Pinkvilla, suggests that the creators of hit series like The Family Man and Farzi are keen to direct Khan in their signature genre. According to the report, the discussions are currently in the preliminary stages. Salman Khan has reportedly heard the basic concept of the film and has shown significant interest. The project is being developed as a large-scale action-comedy, a genre that marries Khan's mass appeal with the unique, witty storytelling style that has made Raj & DK fan favorites. A source close to the development informed Pinkvilla, Salman Khan has heard the basic idea and has shown interest in it. It's an action-comedy, but it will also present Khan in a slightly different space. However, it was emphasized that the superstar has yet to give his final approval to the project. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({})   The primary challenge for this exciting project will be aligning schedules, given Salman Khan's packed movie slate. If the collaboration materializes and Khan officially comes on board, the makers are reportedly looking to begin filming by the end of 2026. This timeline seems plausible as Raj & DK are also reportedly planning their return to the big screen in the second half of 2026, after wrapping up their current OTT commitments. Salman Khan's upcoming schedule is filled with highly anticipated films. His next major release is the patriotic war drama Battle of Galwan, directed by Apoorva Lakhia, which is slated to hit theatres on April 17, 2026. Recent developments have indicated that the filming for Tiger vs Pathaan is now expected to begin in 2026, with a likely theatrical release in 2027. Other projects in his pipeline include potential sequels like Kick 2 and Dabangg 4, and the Vishnuvardhan-directed film The Bull. This potential team-up between one of India's biggest superstars and two of its most innovative directors has generated immense excitement among fans, who are eager to see Salman Khan in the fresh, contemporary cinematic universe that Raj & DK are known for creating.

Toxic vs Battle of Galwan: Yash Sets Up Massive Box Office War with Salman Khan on March 19, 2026

The Indian film industry is bracing for one of the most colossal box office showdowns in recent history. After a prolonged silence following the historic success of the KGF franchise, Rocking Star Yash is finally ready to unveil the world of his next massive project, Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-ups. According to the latest trade reports and social media updates, the makers are set to release a teaser on New Year 2026, officially kicking off the promotional campaign for a theatrical release on March 19, 2026. The road to this announcement has been paved with intense speculation and industry rumors. For months, reports of production delays, budget inflations, and creative differences have plagued the film. There was significant chatter in trade circles suggesting that Yash had taken over creative control, with some rumors even pointing toward him ghost-directing the project to ensure it meets the sky-high expectations set by KGF Chapter 2. However, the announcement of a concrete teaser drop and release date serves as a strategic move by the production team to silence the noise and shift the focus back to the film's scale and vision. What makes this release date particularly explosive is the direct competition it faces. Toxic is now slated to clash head-on with Salman Khan's highly anticipated war drama, Battle of Galwan. Produced by Salman Khan Films and directed by Apoorva lakhia, who previously delivered the hit crime thriller Shootout at Lokhandwala, The March 19 date, which coincides with the festive window of Ugadi and Gudi Padwa, is a lucrative period that both production houses are eager to capitalize on. The stakes could not be higher for both superstars. For Yash, Toxic represents his first outing without director Prashanth Neel, and the industry is watching closely to see if he can replicate his Pan-India dominance with director Geetu Mohandas, known for her indie sensibilities. For Salman Khan, Battle of Galwan offers a chance to return to the grounded, high-emotion action genre that resonates deeply with domestic audiences. This clash draws parallels to previous industry battles, such as the face-off between Dunki and Salaar, proving that the trend of massive films colliding on festive dates is here to stay. As the New Year approaches, all eyes will be on the Toxic teaser. If the promotional material manages to capture the dark, stylish aesthetic promised by the title, the Battle of Galwan team will have a formidable adversary to contend with. With two distinct genres—a stylized gangster drama versus a patriotic war film—audiences will likely be the ultimate winners in this box office duel of 2026.

Superstar Salman Khan Hilariously Trolls The U.S. President Donald Trump On Bigg Boss 19 Weekend Ka Vaar

Mumbai, September 7 - The US President Donald Trump's peace prize rant has made its way to the Indian television reality show Bigg Boss, hosted by superstar Salman Khan. During the Weekend Ka Vaar episode of Bigg Boss 19 on September 6, 2025, blockbuster host Salman Khan gave a sharp reprimand to contestant Farrhana Bhatt, who refers to herself as a "peace activist", for instigating unnecessary conflicts inside the house. Salman delivered a strong critique of Farhana, and while doing that, he seemingly hilariously trolled Trump, who has been desperately seeking the Nobel Peace Prize for the works he has never done. The superstar said, "A peace activist is supposed to resolve conflicts and bring people together. But what's happening? around the world, those who create the most trouble are the ones demanding peace prizes." Megastar #SalmanKhan trolling Donald Trump 😂😭 #BiggBoss19"Is Dunia me jo sabse jyada trouble faila rahe h, unhe hi peace prize chahiye" pic.twitter.com/Z4SfUNm1Lb— MASS (@Freak4Salman) September 7, 2025 Netizens quickly interpreted Salman's remark as a cleverly veiled jab at U.S. President Donald Trump, who has been in the news for pushing for consideration for the Nobel Peace Prize, despite widespread criticism of his actions on the global stage. Trump's bid for the Nobel, including asking various nations to nominate him and support from his national security adviser, has been met with significant backlash and scepticism. The reaction online was immediate and enthusiastic, as social media users lauded Salman's sense of humour and drew a clear line between his words and Trump's real-life ambitions. One X user coined it, "Salman Sir ne ek bahut achi baat boli... Pehli Farhana aur dusra Donald Trump," applauding how Salman targeted both the contestant and "peace preacher Trump" with a single shot. Another said, "Lmao, Salman was bashing Farhana but ended up bashing Donald Trump indirectly... collateral damage at its finest." Meanwhile, Salman Khan will next be seen in the war action drama, The Battle of Galwan, directed by Apoorva Lakhia. Inspired by the 2020 clash between Indian and Chinese soldiers in the Galwan Valley, the movie focuses on the intense hand-to-hand combat that occurred without firearms. The film began shooting in Ladakh in August and is a tribute to the bravery of Indian soldiers. The makers are eyeing to release the film in the first half of 2026. Stay tuned...
