Zoya Akhtar Hints at Potential Collaboration with Salman Khan The legendary screenwriting duo Salim-Javed defined a golden era in Indian cinema, creating stories that have become timeless classics. Despite this shared legacy, their children—filmmaker Zoya Akhtar and superstar Salman Khan—have yet to join forces on a project. Zoya, daughter of Javed Akhtar, recently suggested that such a collaboration would be “delicious,” but emphasized that it would depend on finding the perfect subject that resonates with both of them. Zoya Akhtar, renowned for her critically acclaimed films such as Luck by Chance, Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara, and Gully Boy, expressed her excitement about the possibility of working with Salman Khan, son of Salim Khan. Salman, one of Bollywood’s biggest stars, is famous for delivering mass-appeal blockbusters that connect with audiences across the country. In a recent interview with Bollywood Hungama, Zoya shared her thoughts on a potential collaboration with Salman, stating, “It would be amazing! He is a megastar with a crazy persona and a huge fanbase. I obviously have to find a subject that works for him, his fans, and me. The minute we find the right subject, it would be delicious, it would be a lot of fun.” Zoya, who is co-producing the upcoming Amazon Prime Video documentary Angry Young Men, which explores the life and career of Salim-Javed, shared a story about meeting Salman Khan to discuss the docu-series. She and her brother, actor-filmmaker Farhan Akhtar, visited Salman at his iconic Galaxy apartment. “It was fun; we were in his lawn, having tea, with all his nephews around. It was a nice feeling to be back at Galaxy because we grew up there and played in that garden,” Zoya reminisced. Their conversation covered a wide range of topics, with Salman being particularly open about the past. Zoya noted that, as someone older, Salman had experienced more of Salim-Javed’s glory days than she and Farhan had, and he shared memories that were both nostalgic and insightful. At the trailer launch of Angry Young Men, Salim and Javed hinted at a possible reunion for a new film, generating excitement among fans. When asked about this, Zoya responded, “I don’t know what they were cooking between them, but I hope I get to direct it! Because there are many contenders in the family, so I hope I get it!”
