According to sources close to the development, Kabir Khan has signed on with Karan Johar’s banner, Dharma Productions for an action-packed thriller, which is presently in the pre-production stage.
A source tells us that Kabir Khan is looking to return to deliver a blockbuster again, after Bajrangi Bhaijaan. “Kabir Khan is developing a commercial action film in association with Karan Johar’s Dharma Production.
