Other details regarding the plot, cast and crew are yet to be unveiled.

Meanwhile, Salman will also be seen next in Maatrubhumi, which was previously titled Battle of Galwan. The film is helmed by Apoorva Lakhia and also stars Chitrangada Singh in the lead. The superstar was last seen in Sikandar, which proved to be a failure at the box office.
