Shahid Kapoor is already making waves with his intense performance in the teaser of Deva, which will hit the cinema halls on January 31. But that’s not all! The actor recently started shooting for director Vishal Bhardwaj’s next in Mumbai and is also going to feature as a gangster in an action thriller directed by Sajid Nadiadwala, which is expected to release towards the end of 2025.
According to sources close to the development, the actor is in talks with the ace filmmaker Atlee for his upcoming production. Shahid is reportedly in talks for a masaledaar action entertainer that will be helmed by one of Atlee’s trusted associates. The talks have been going on since the last five months, and the deal is rumored to be finalized, with Shahid signing on the dotted lines.
This action adventure is going to be an absolutely new film as it is a departure from Baby John, the recent box office dud. The source reveals that Atlee himself has worked on developing the script with his associate, and the team feels that Shahid is the perfect fit for the role. The film promises to be a larger-than-life action entertainer, offering Shahid Kapoor an opportunity to showcase a heroic avatar unlike anything seen before.
With the discussions almost at the completion stage, the fans can look forward to seeing Shahid Kapoor in one of the most thrilling action-packed films in the near future with Atlee.
