Mumbai: Hrithik Roshan has built a commendable reputation as an action star with films like 'Krissh', 'Agneepath', 'Dhoom 2', 'Bang Bang' among others.

Tiger Shroff, who blasted into Bollywood with immense action versatility, having been proficient in multiple martial art forms, has been adding on to Hrithik's legacy. Their terrific dancing skills is another aspect that connects the two. Tiger has often referred to Hrithik as his biggest inspiration, with the latter making him the face of HRX, Hrithik's clothing line.

And now, Aditya Chopra, who's belted out many an action film under the Yash Raj Films banner, has pulled an unimaginable casting coup by pitting the two against each other in a yet-untitled high-octane flick.

The film, to be helmed by Hrithik's 'Bang Bang' director Siddharth Anand, is said to have Hrithik play mentor to Tiger until things go awry between the two and they turn against each other.

Well, the biggest action adventure for sure, considering their combined star power and the lavish Yash Raj scale.

Can't wait for January 25, 2019 to arrive now, can we?!
