Khan is returning to filmmaking after a long hiatus. After being named amid the MeToo movement, the director maintained a low profile and was asked to step down from movies, such as Housefull 4, which was then directed by Farhad Samji. He had announced his comeback in 2022, but the film did not materialise. With Bigg Boss 16, he came back into the limelight. According to the latest report, Sajid has started working on an unannounced film. On Saturday, Khan was on set and he sustained an injury. His sister, Farah Khan, confirmed the development and assured that he is fine.

Sajid Khan's comeback film

In 2022, Sajid announced his comeback film, 100 Percent with John Abraham, Riteish Deshmukh, Shehnaaz Gill and many others. It was scheduled for a Diwali 2023 release. However, due to multiple delays and legal matters, the film has been put on the backburner. Earlier this year, John, through the law firm Naik Naik & Co, conveyed that he is not associated in any capacity with 100 Percent. The legal communication stated that his name has been “wrongly mentioned and misrepresented” as part of the film’s star cast.In October, a Mid-Day report revealed that Sajid has been in talks with Zee Studios to helm a romantic-comedy. The untitled film is likely to launch Govinda and Sunita Ahuja's son, Yasvardhan Ahuja. He is reportedly paired opposite Nitanshi Goel of Laapataa Ladies fame. Apart from her, Krithi Shetty is apparently a part of it as the female lead."Sajid has been approached by the studio, but he hasn’t said yes yet. The studio heads are keen to have him helm the film as the comedy elements are right up his alley. Yashvardhan has another project with Phantom Studios, but he is likely to start shooting for this first. Sajid was earlier to direct a film with John Abraham, but that didn’t work out," a source told the tabloid.Sajid is yet to make an official announcement about his return.
