While details of the film are being strictly maintained under wraps, recent reports have confirmed that the filmmaker is keen on making this a mega two-hero project with either Tamil superstars Rajinikanth or Kamal Haasan as the other lead. Latest update on that front is that the film will be a reincarnation drama.

In a Pinkvilla report, a source was revealed saying, “Atlee has been working on a mega-budget reincarnation drama for the last one year, which is set in two distinct era’s – past and present. The filmmaker is looking to have a strong, never-seen-before period set up with breath-taking visuals of a fictional world. It’s going to be Salman Khan presented like never before in the avatar of a warrior in the period era, whereas the present era dynamics have been kept under wraps for now. The focus of the film will be more towards the period portions than the present, as the script demands more of drama and conflict in the fictional fantasy world. All the characters will be interlinked from past and present.”
