Atlee is the most sought-after director in the film industry these days.
Atlee said that Jawan has collected more than Rs 1,100 crore and that his next project should collect at least Rs 3,000 crore. “For this to happen, I must cast both Shah Rukh sir and Vijay sir,” he said.
Atlee also met the Pushpa Arjun and pitched a story. There is a chance that Arjun may go with Atlee before he starts the next with Trivikram Srinivas.
Incidentally, Atlee was in the news recently for a possible collaboration with top Telugu hero Allu Arjun. Whether he will direct the Pushpa actor first or the SRK-Vijay will be known next year has to be seen.
If Arjun gets a super duper hit again with Pushpa two he will go with Atlee first and then may think about Trivikram. Meanwhile, Trivikram has already sounded Chiranjeevi and he may announce the project anytime with the megastar.
There is also a talk that Atlee has given a storyline to Junior NTR and he did not give his opinion on that. NTR is also fixed with Neel after the movie war for Bollywood with Hrithik Roshan.
Right now Atlee is enjoying family time after the success with Badshah SRK. Even Rajamoouli did not get 3000 crore so far with RRR and Baahubali. But Atlee is aiming at it and he might get it also in the near future.
