The discussions are still at an initial stage. According to sources close to the development, the project in question is an action-comedy, a genre that aligns well with Salman Khan\u2019s on and offscreen persona while also offering a fresh touch under Raj &amp; DK\u2019s style.

It\u2019s an action-comedy, but it will also present Khan in a slightly different space. However, he is yet to give his final nod to the project.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The source further adds that timelines are being discussed, keeping Salman\u2019s packed slate in mind. \u201cIf everything falls into place and Salman comes on board, the makers are looking to take the film on floors by the end of 2026.
