Over the years, Yash Raj Films have maintained their legacy by creating some of the biggest spectacles of Indian Cinema. According to sources, the banner has locked 9 feature films with some of the biggest superstars in the coming 3 years. The films will start to roll on the big screen from 2025.

The YRF slate opens with the biggest feature film of 2025, “War 2”, starring Hrithik Roshan, NTR Jr, Kiara Advani and Anil Kapoor. The Ayan Mukerji directorial arrives during the Independence Day 2025 weekend, and is expected to be the biggest grosser of the year.

This will be followed by “Alpha” starring Alia Bhatt, Sharvari, Bobby Deol, and Anil Kapoor on Christmas. The Shiv Rawail directorial is also a part of the YRF Spy Universe and will feature Hrithik Roshan in an extended cameo.

2025 will also see the release of the “yet-untitled” Mohit Suri-directed romantic film marking the big screen debut of Ahan Pandey, though the date is yet undecided. YRF will shift its gear by taking 3 franchise films on floors in 2025 and 2026 – While the Rani Mukerji led “Mardaani 3” begins around March 2025, Shah Rukh Khan returns to the marque as Pathaan in “Pathaan 2” by the end of 2025/early 2026 for a 2027 release.

The script of “Pathaan 2” is locked by Shridhar Raghavan and is said to be bigger than ever before and set up the inter character dynamics of their spy universe in the film with SRK in lead.

The studio is also rebooting the Dhoom franchise and has locked Ranbir Kapoor to play the lead role. “Dhoom 4” will begin by mid-2025, to go on floors by end of next year for 2027 release.

Ali Abbas Zafar is working on a commercial “action drama” for YRF, and that film too is expected to go in the casting stage soon, to go on floors by 2025-end / early 2026. The most awaited “Tiger v/s Pathaan” is also on YRF’s slate. The production house is waiting to get dates from two superstars – Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan.

YRF is also developing a standalone “comic caper”, which is presently in the writing stage, and will proceed towards casting by the end of this year.

The coming 3 years could see YRF work with stars like Hrithik Roshan, NTR Jr, Kiara Advani, Alia Bhatt, Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone, Ranbir Kapoor, and Salman Khan among others. It’s indeed the biggest line-up for an Indian Film Studio.
