Siddharth Anand to direct Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan starrer 'Tiger Vs Pathaan': Report!

A trade source said, “Siddharth is getting a dream cast of Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan coming together for their first full-fledged film since ‘Karan Arjun’ {1995} and Siddharth will also be given all the support he needs to mount ‘Tiger vs Pathaan’ as the biggest film that India has ever produced.”

Earlier, the fans of Sidharth were disappointed with him not directing ‘War 2‘ — the sequel to his 2019 blockbuster directorial when Ayan Mukerji was given the charge as the director.

YRF’s spy universe started in 2012 when Salman Khan took charge as Tiger in ‘Ek Tha Tiger’. In 2017, Salman reprised the role of the super-spy in ‘Tiger Zinda Hai’. In 2019, Hrithik Roshan made his entry into the universe as the suave super-spy Kabir in ‘War’. With ‘Pathaan’, Shah Rukh Khan entered the YRF spy universe as the super-agent Pathaan and delivered a mammoth global blockbuster.

The next film in the spy universe, ‘Tiger 3‘, is due a release in November, over the Diwali festival holiday frame.
