Rumors have been swirling over the past few weeks about Atlee’s upcoming mega project with Salman Khan. This major Pan-India film will be backed by Kalanithi Maran under the banner Sun Pictures. Several sources indicate that the film’s star-studded cast includes ‘Ulaganayagan’ Kamal Haasan in a pivotal role.
Sadly, the news has been debunked as this piece of news is not true. Kamal Haasan is not part of Atlee-Salman Khan's film. Despite reports suggesting that Kamal Haasan had signed on for the film, DH has verified that Kamal Haasan is not part of this project.
A trusted insider close to the superstar clarified, 'These are baseless rumors. He is not attached to Atlee’s film, and I can confirm this with full certainty. Sir is busy fulfilling his previous commitments and, after returning from the US, will pick up where he left off with Mani Ratnam’s Thug Life, with just a few days of shooting remaining. Following that, he’ll begin work on Anbariv's project, and there are no other additions to his lineup for now.”
Recently, Kamal Haasan took to his social media and announced that he won't be hosting the popular reality TV show Bigg Boss Tamil Season 8 due to movie commitments.
At present, Kamal Haasan is in the U.S. taking an AI course, and he is expected to come back once he wraps up the program.
On the work front, Kamal Haasan, who was last seen in Kalki 2898 AD and Indian 2, is set to appear next in Mani Ratnam’s Thug Life, Indian 3, and Anbariv’s project, temporarily named KH 237. Apart from acting Kamal Haasan is also actively involved in producing movies under the banner Raaj Kamal Films International.
