Get ready for a twist in the YRF Spy Universe! While a sequel to the blockbuster Pathaan starring Shah Rukh Khan is confirmed, reports suggest director Siddharth Anand will not be returning for Pathaan 2.
According to sources, Aditya Chopra, head of Yash Raj Films, is looking to bring in a fresh perspective for the next chapter of Pathaan’s story. This follows YRF’s strategy of employing different directors for sequels in their spy universe, as seen with Tiger Zinda Hai and War.
However, Siddharth Anand isn’t out of the YRF picture. He’s been entrusted with directing the highly anticipated crossover film, Tiger vs Pathaan. This mega-project will pit Salman Khan’s Tiger against Shah Rukh Khan’s Pathaan in a thrilling face-off.
While the director for Pathaan 2 remains under wraps, filming is expected to begin by the end of 2024. This news keeps Siddharth Anand at the helm of a high-octane project within the YRF Spy Universe, while fans eagerly await the announcement of Pathaan 2’s director.
