MUMBAI: Sameer Nair is known for telling stories that are well told either for the big screen or for the streaming platforms. Applause Entertainment – the studio he heads – has been the force behind several  intense series and films which have broken the mould- the Scam series, City of Dreams, Swigato, Tanaav, and Rudra. Kabir Khan, on the other hand, is known for films that are replete with thrills, chases, action, and are larger than life – and  for sports biopics, two of which have got critical acclaim but have not done as well at the box office. 

When the two get together wonder what we will end up getting?

Well they have!  

Applause Entertainment and Kabir Khan Films have announced a creative partnership for a two-film collaboration, bringing together two powerhouse storytellers from India’s entertainment industry.
This collaboration marks a significant milestone, blending Applause Entertainment's reputation for innovative storytelling with Kabir Khan Films' expertise in crafting cinematic blockbusters. Known for acclaimed projects, both companies are set to deliver compelling narratives that promise to captivate audiences.

Sameer Nair, CEO of Applause Entertainment, expressed enthusiasm about the partnership, stating: “We are thrilled to collaborate with Kabir Khan, a master storyteller, to create two distinctive films that reflect our shared vision for impactful cinema.”

Kabir Khan, known for films like Chandu Champion, Ek Tha Tiger, Bajrangi Bhaijaan and 83, added: “This partnership with Applause is an exciting opportunity to explore fresh narratives and deliver cinematic experiences that resonate with audiences.”

Further details about the films, including cast and release timelines, are expected to be announced soon. The partnership signals a dynamic phase for both production houses, promising engaging content for the evolving Indian film landscape.
