Mumbai: As the highly-anticipated Bollywood film ‘Tiger 3’, starring Salman Khan, gears up for its release, a tweet has stirred up a storm on the internet. However, it’s not the kind of attention the movie’s creators were hoping for. Tiger 3 starring Katrina Kaif in the female lead role is slated to hit the screens on November 12 and fans are super excited for the release.
Amid the buzz, the tweet by X page ‘News Of Bollywood’ that is now gaining viral attention claims to provide an early review of ‘Tiger 3’, labeling it as a ‘very bad film’. The tweet suggests that the movie’s scenes are borrowed from other Yash Raj Films (YRF) productions like ‘Tiger’, ‘Tiger Zinda Hai’, ‘War’, and ‘Pathaan’, also claiming that most of the film is shot using a Salman Khan lookalike. It concludes with a one-star rating.
Following this tweet, Salman Khan’s supporters and credible trade experts swiftly stepped in to address the issue, stating that these online reviews are fake and should not be trusted. They urged the audience not to give credence to such misleading claims. A few social media users also claimed that the Twitter page ‘News Of Bollywood’ is KRK’s (Kamaal Rashid Khan) second account on the micro-blogging website.
The tweet, which is causing a buzz online, has raised concerns among fans eagerly awaiting the film’s release. As the clock ticks closer to the film’s premiere, the controversy surrounding the early review adds an unexpected twist to the fervor and anticipation surrounding ‘Tiger 3’.
Only the movie’s release and public response will paint the true picture of its success. Let’s wait and see.
While one fan wrote, ‘Its outstanding trailer and blockbuster’, another one called it the ‘massiest film ever’. Apart from Salman Khan’s action-packed performance, what grabbed the attention of the fans wasKatrina Kaif packing a punch in the movie.
The major highlight of the film is none other than Emraan Hashmi who is the new addition in the ‘Tiger’ franchise. The actor will be seen playing the antagonist in the movie. Fans can’t wait to watch Emraan and Salman’s face-off in the movie. Although makers refrained from showing too much of Emraan’s characters in the movie, fans called his solo shot in the end ‘show stealer’.
This franchise began with Kabir Khan helmed ‘Ek Tha Tiger’ in 2012, which was followed by Ali Abbas Zafar directed ‘Tiger Zinda Hai’ in 2017. This is the third film in the franchise starring Salman and Katrina as spy agents. Emraan Hashmi has been roped in to play the antagonist opposite Salman Khan.
‘Tiger 3’ will also witness the dynamic reunion of Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan, who are set to portray their iconic characters, Tiger and Pathaan, respectively. An insider has disclosed exclusive information about this exciting development, stating, “When you bring together the likes of SRK and Salman in a single film, it is imperative to do justice to their immense stardom and deliver an unparalleled cinematic experience. ‘Pathaan’ achieved this masterfully, and now ‘Tiger 3’ aims to do the same. These two legendary actors are poised to engage in an enormously grand and heart-pounding action sequence in ‘Tiger 3,’ and Aditya Chopra is sparing no expense to craft this sequence to perfection. He is investing a staggering Rs. 35 crore in constructing a set that can showcase this sequence in the most magnificent manner possible.”
Directed by Maneesh Sharma, ‘Tiger 3’ will hit the theatres on November 10, on the special occasion of Diwali.
The biggest names in the Bollywood film industry came together in style for Manish Malhotra’s extravagant Diwali party. All the gorgeous ladies and dashing men stepped up for the bash, looking like a million bucks in their traditional attire. Joining the starry lineup of guests was Bollywood ‘Bhaijaan’ Salman Khan.
The actor, who is gearing up to set the box office on fire this Diwali with the release of his next action film ‘Tiger 3’, had all eyes on him as he arrived for the bash.

Salman Khan is gearing up for Tiger 3, Yash Raj Films’ next offering, paving the way for a large Spy Universe. Recently, there have been reports of Hrithik Roshan joining the film as his character from War, Kabir. Shah Rukh Khan is already featured in the climax sequence as Pathaan. But can you guess how much is the Sultan actor charging for his action extravaganza?
Reports suggest that the Khan superstar has entered a profit-sharing deal with Yash Raj Films, and if the film fares well, he might take a huge chunk home. With almost 60% profit-sharing, the actor reportedly is charging almost close to 100 crore.
If Tiger 3 fares on the same lines as the previous Spy Universe film, Pathaan, then Salman Khan might take home a whopping around. Reports suggest that Shah Rukh Khan took home a meaty chunk of 200+ crore for Pathaan after the film created a riot at the box office with a 500+ crore collection.
Now, if the Sultan actor does take home 200+ crore with Tiger 3, it would be a huge jump from the previous Tiger films. YRF created a spy world with Ek Tha Tiger, which was helmed by Kabir Khan. Salman was initially paid 15 crore for the film, along with a 10% profit sharing. He later jumped 766% higher for the next installment of the Tigerverse.
For Tiger sequel, Tiger Zinda Hai, helmed by Ali Abbas Zafar, the actor reportedly took home a whopping 135 crore. That is around 8.5 times higher than the basic amount charged for Ek Tha Tiger, sans the profit sharing. Reportedly, the superstar also charged around 125 crore for his last film, Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan.
However, the film did not earn much profit, and Salman Khan’s profit-sharing deal might have changed the dynamics of this fee structure for sure.
Interestingly, Salman Khan has been charging 100 crore from Yash Raj Films ever since he played a wrestler in Sultan and worked way too hard for the film. However, while he started the 100 crore club for YRF actors, he might be the second to enter the 200 crore club after Shah Rukh Khan, who reportedly took home a whopping 200+ crore as his entire share for Pathaan.
Tiger 3 is releasing on Diwali, November 12. The film stars Katrina Kaif and Emraan Hashmi, along with Hrithik Roshan (rumored) and Shah Rukh Khan in very special roles.
