While being part of a blockbuster spy movie franchise 'Tiger', Salman is in talks to star in yet another spy thriller. However, this new film is supposed to be significantly different from his other action films since he's going to portray a real life character. A source told Pinkvilla, “It’s a film based on the life of Indian spy, Ravindra Kaushik. He is famously known as Black Tiger and is regarded as India’s best spy ever. It's among the most heroic and shocking stories from the Indian Intelligence history."

The source added, "Contrary to the general belief, the film won’t be titled Black Tiger and the makers are on the look out for a new name. It’s set in the era of 70s and 80s, and apart from researching on the life of Ravindra Kaushik, Gupta and his team have also done extensive research to recreate that era."

This will be the first in his career that Salman will play a real life character.
