While the project is still in its early stages, sources suggest that both parties are eager to work together. However, with busy schedules on both sides, the film may take some time to materialize. Sukumar already has an exciting lineup ahead, including RC 17 with Ram Charan, Pushpa 3: The Rampage, and a romantic drama featuring Ram. Meanwhile, Shah Rukh Khan has his plate full with King, an action thriller co-starring his daughter Suhana Khan, and the highly anticipated Pathaan 2.
