YRF Pauses Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan's 'Tiger vs Pathaan'?
According to the report by Peepingmoon.com, YRF's head, Aditya Chopra, is reassessing the future of Spy Universe to give it a new direction. It is said that Chopra is concerned about spy universe films becoming formulaic and "veering towards repetition".
Chopra believes that the franchise needs a revitalised approach to storytelling and presentation, and in this process, the studio has reportedly paused the development of Tiger vs Pathaan, which was supposed to start rolling in late 2026.
YRF next has Hrithik Roshan and Jr. NTR's War 2, scheduled to hit the big screen on August 14, followed by Alia Bhatt's Alpha in December this year. Meanwhile, Shah Rukh Khan's Pathaan 2, which was expected to go on floors by the end of this year, has reportedly been postponed.
Meanwhile, reports suggest that YRF is putting Dhoom 4 in top priority, with Ranbir Kapoor locked in to play the lead role and Ayan Mukerji to direct it. It will go on floors in the summer of 2026 for a grand release in 2027.
