Fact Check: Is Vicky Kaushal Joining Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan in YRF’s Spy Universe? Here’s the Truth
Vicky Kaushal has been enjoying a great run at the box office, especially after his film Chhaava became a massive hit, earning over ₹500 crore. With his rising popularity, fans have been excited about the possibility of him joining big stars like Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan in the YRF spy universe. But is it true?
Let’s clear the air.
Vicky Kaushal Is Not Joining the YRF Spy Universe (Yet)
Despite the buzz on social media, a source close to the matter has confirmed that Vicky Kaushal is not part of the spy universe right now.
Yes, Yash Raj Films (YRF) is planning to expand its spy franchise by bringing in new actors and characters, but nothing has been finalized with Vicky so far. So, the news of him entering the spyverse is false at this point.
YRF’s Focus Right Now: War 2 and Alpha
Currently, YRF is focusing all its attention on the upcoming action film War 2. The movie stars Hrithik Roshan, Kiara Advani, and Jr NTR, and is set to release on August 14, just in time for Independence Day weekend. It will be clashing with Rajinikanth and Lokesh Kanagaraj’s film Coolie.
Meanwhile, YRF is also working on another big spy film called Alpha. It stars Alia Bhatt and Sharvari, and will be the first female-led spy movie in the YRF spy universe. Bobby Deol is said to have an important role, and the film is being directed by Shiv Rawail. Alpha is expected to release on Christmas 2025.
What’s Next for Vicky Kaushal?
While he’s not joining the spy universe just yet, Vicky Kaushal is keeping busy with some major projects. He is currently working on Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Love & War alongside Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt.
He also has a big mythological film called Mahavatar lined up, where he’ll play Lord Parashuram. After the success of Chhaava, this epic drama could be another big moment in his career—if made well.
Bottom Line: Vicky Kaushal is not joining Salman and SRK in the YRF spy universe at the moment. But with his rising stardom, never say never!
