It’s a casting coup! Producer Aditya Chopra has signed Hrithik Roshan and Tiger Shroff for an action film together. But unlike his Dhoom franchise, which has one A-list actor pitted against another top actor, this one will see the two actors as mentor and protégé. Which is apt as Tiger grew up idolising Hrithik.
MENTOR-PROTÉGÉ
Says an insider, “Hrithik and Tiger are not clashing against each other in the film. In fact, the two will be uniting to form a formidable duo. Hrithik plays Tiger’s mentor in the film, who guides him. The whole film will revolve around their sweet guru-shishya bond and together they take on the baddie.”
DANCE GALORE
When you think of Hrithik and Tiger, you can’t help but think of their dancing abilities. So, naturally, there will be a lot of song-and-dance. The source adds, “There will also be a few out-and-out dance numbers with both of them showing off their dancing skills. That is being planned as one of the highlights of the film.”
COMMON BADDIE
Both, Hrithik and Tiger, will be against the same nemesis in the film. “People expected it to be a face-off between Tiger and Hrithik, but there will be a third actor playing the villain. The team is finalising another actor for that role now. ” Vaani Kapoor is the only leading lady here. The film will go on floors next year in April and is expected to be wrapped up by October. The action flick will release in January 2019.
