Shah Rukh Khan is all set to collaborate with director Atlee for a sequel to their 2024 blockbuster, Jawan. The film, titled Jawan 2, is reportedly in the making and will see SRK reuniting with Atlee after King. A source revealed that the script for Jawan 2 was finalized a few weeks ago and SRK will begin work on the film after completing King.

The first part of the film had Vijay Sethupathi as the main villain, and now, for the sequel, Atlee is reportedly planning to lock in an A-lister from the South as the new villain.

Jawan, which marked Atlee's Bollywood debut as a director, collected ₹1100 crore worldwide and won two awards at the 71st National Film Awards, including Best Actor in a Leading Role for SRK.
