Yash Raj Films has an ambitious plan of uniting three of their major action movie franchises under an integrated "spy universe". This means that Salman Khan's 'Tiger', Shahrukh Khan's 'Pathan' and Hrithik Roshan's 'War' franchises will be the part of same shared universe. Ever since this announcement, fans have wondered when they'll get see the ultimate team-up of Shahrukh, Salman and Hrithik on screen.

While Shahrukh and Salman's characters are set to share screen in Siddharth Anand's 'Pathan', Hrithik Roshan will reportedly join them much later. A source close to the development told Pinkvilla, "For all those who know what’s in the script of Pathan and Tiger 3 can tell authentically that Hrithik Roshan’s character Kabir was never supposed to be meet Pathan or Tiger in any of these films. Aditya Chopra is strategically building his spy franchise and the moment when Salman Khan, Hrithik Roshan and Shah Rukh Khan will meet each other as Tiger, Pathan and Kabir will be only post WAR 2. That’s been the plan from the start.”

The source further added, "Aditya Chopra realises that the on-screen meeting of these three super spies will be like the Avengers Endgame moment for audiences where all the heroes assemble. He is only going to let audiences crave for this moment till it happens. Right now, it’s all a process of building up and it will be a blockbuster meeting of the three giants of the country and the plans are in motion for the same. We have to wait patiently and enjoy these projects to see how the build-up to that moment happens.”
