Ali and Salman make for one of the most successful director-actor duos in Bollywood. Rumours were rife lately that after the release of Bharat, Ali will call the shots for Salman Khan’s another South Korean remake, Veteran. But since Khan his busy with his upcoming projects such as Dabangg 3, Inshallah and Kick 2, he seems unable to manage his dates for yet another heavy film like the Veteran remake.

After the debacle of Zero (2018), Shah Rukh Khan has not signed any film.

Though there is no official confirmation, rumours are strong that Yash Raj Films is bankrolling Dhoom 4 for him with Ali Abbas Zafar coming onboard to helm the project.
Ali Abbas Zafar, who began his journey with Yash Raj Films, is known for pulling off larger-than-life films.
