Sources claim that the tone of the film could be similar to the Hollywood movie Kick-Ass. The makers reportedly want a grounded and unconventional approach to the superhero genre. This style would be different from the usual large scale commercial entertainers.

Reports also suggest that Salman Khan liked the basic idea of the project. He has reportedly asked the directors to expand the concept into a complete script. The film is said to be in the early development stage.

Another key detail mentioned in reports is the film’s budget plan. Salman is believed to prefer a limited budget for this project. Since the concept is experimental for his image, the actor reportedly wants to reduce financial risk.

Meanwhile, discussions about the idea have already started on social media. Some users feel that Salman Khan may be too old to play such roles. Others believe the concept could work if the story is strong and well executed.

Some comments also mention Salman’s involvement in creative decisions. Critics feel that excessive involvement could affect the final output of the film. These discussions are based on reactions to his recent projects.

In recent years, the actor has also faced trolling online over his performances. Some viewers criticised what they described as lazy acting in certain films. This has influenced public conversations about his future projects.

At present, the script is still under development. The makers have not officially confirmed the project yet. If the script is finalised on time, the film could begin shooting in November 2026.
