Aditya Chopra adds a twist to 'YRF Spy Universe', to make a new film before SRK and Salman Khan's 'Tiger v/s Pathaan'

The YRF spy universe kicked off with the Tiger franchise, starring Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif, beginning with “Ek Tha Tiger” (2012) and “Tiger Zinda Hai” (2017), and continued with “War” (2019), starring Hrithik Roshan and Tiger Shroff. Then came the all-time blockbuster, “ _Pathaan_ ,” starring Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone and John Abraham. The last film from the spy universe was “Tiger 3” starring Salman Khan, Katrina Kaif & Emraan Hashmi. All films from this fabled franchise have been hits! It was reported Chopra was gearing up to bring SRK and Salman together for YRF’s magnanimous _Tiger v/s Pathaan_ , but it seems the producer has a surprise in store. “YRF Spy Universe has become a huge draw for audiences worldwide as seen in the box office result that this franchise has delivered. Adi realises the sky high expectations that every film from this spy universe currently has and he is adding a new twist to the timeline!” reveals a source. “Adi wants to set up the mega clash of two of India’s biggest cinematic icons Shah Rukh Khan & Salman Khan with a film that will be a precursor to the violent face off in Tiger vs Pathaan. He will make a film that interconnects the YRF Spy Universe further before the ultimate showdown!” informs a trade source. More details about Tiger v/s Pathaan According to Bollywood Hungama, a trade source said, “YRF isn’t talking about this project just yet because they have grand plans to announce it in a massive way but a lot of work has already started on Tiger vs Pathaan. We are expecting the film to start rolling in January 2024. Aditya Chopra is going to keep all details under wraps because this is the biggest Bollywood film that the industry has attempted to make in a long, long time. It is not every day that you get India’s biggest superstars SRK and Salman in one film!”
