The statement by Salman's legal team read, "This is to inform that neither Mr. Salman Khan nor any of his affiliated companies or teams are organizing any upcoming concerts, appearances in the USA in 2024. Any claims suggesting that Mr. Khan will be performing are completely false. Please do not trust any emails, messages, or advertisements promoting such events. Legal action will be taken against anyone found falsely using Mr. Salman Khan's name for fraudulent purposes."
Salman will be seen headlining 'Sikandar'. The film marks the reunion of Salman Khan and Sajid Nadiadwala after their previous successful collaborations 'Kick', 'Judwaa', and 'Mujhse Shaadi Karogi'. Directed by A.R. Murugadoss, the film is set to release next Eid. In May 2024, the production house officially announced that Rashmika Mandanna was also a part of the film.
Salman will also be sharing screen space with Shah Rukh Khan in âTiger Vs Pathaan'. The film will reportedly have Tiger (Salman) locking horns with Pathaan, played by SRK. It will mark their full-fledged collaboration after 'Karan Arjun'. An official announcement regarding the project is still awaited.
Murugadoss considers these sequences as the film's highlight and is planning to mount them on a grand scale. A source revealed to Mid-day, "The first is an aerial action set-piece that sees Salman suspended from a height as he engages in hand-to-hand combat. Its choreography will blend aerial acrobatics with close-quarters combat. This scene, which also includes special effects, is expected to be one of the most visually stunning parts of the movie."
While the second scene in question is an elaborate car chase, complete with cars exploding and high-speed crashes, the third is the climactic battle. "Here, Salman's character will have a face-off with the primary antagonist in a brutal brawl. The director wants it to be raw and bloody," added the source.
