They last collaborated on the hit film, Bodyguard (2011), and now, Salman Khan has confirmed that his next project — after Aditya Chopra’s production, Sultan — will be a movie with his sister, Alvira and brother-in-law Atul Agnihotri. Interestingly, contrary to rumours, the film won’t be a sequel to the trio’s last collaboration. Ever since the original film released, it was speculated that part two was underway.

“There’s one film, which we haven’t titled as yet. We have just locked the script. It’s a very emotional story. I will be doing that film with Atul. He will be producing it,” says Salman.

Rumours were also rife that Atul will be directing the film. But sources claim that Alvira and her husband will only produce the venture. When contacted, Atul refused to divulge any details, saying, “We will make an announcement when everything is confirmed.” However, a source says that the movie will be a love story with a lot of action.

This year, Salman will be seen in film-maker Sooraj Barjatya’s next, which will release around Diwali this year. The shooting for Alvira and Atul’s film will apparently commence after the actor wraps up Sultan, which will be the actor’s Eid release in 2016.
