Salman Khan’s latest film ‘Tiger 3’ has set a new record as the biggest opener of his career, raking in a whopping Rs 43 crore on its release day, according to trade analyst Taran Adarsh. The total day 1 collection of the film, including dubbed versions, is reported to be Rs 44.50 Cr. Despite being released on Diwali, the film managed to do great business.
‘Tiger 3’ is the third installment of the popular Tiger franchise and is part of the YRF Spy Universe along with films like War and Pathaan. Starring Salman Khan, Katrina Kaif, and Emraan Hashmi, the movie also features cameo appearances by Shah Rukh Khan and Hrithik Roshan.
Hrithik Roshan’s ‘Krrish 3’ previously held the record for the highest Diwali day collection, but ‘Tiger 3’ has now surpassed it to become Khan’s biggest opener since his 2019 film ‘Bharat’, which earned Rs 42.30 crore on its first day.
Directed by Maneesh Sharma, ‘Tiger 3’ continues the story of RA&W agent Tiger and ISI agent Zoya, played by Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif respectively. Prior to the film’s release, Salman Khan revealed in an interview that the bike chasing scene was the most challenging aspect of the ‘Tiger 3’ shoot. He also expressed his excitement for the release of the film, saying, “Audiences have a connection with Tiger, they have followed his journey, they feel a connection with the characters and this time around the film is more personal, more emotional.”
With its big opening, ‘Tiger 3’ is already making waves in the Indian film industry, solidifying Salman Khan’s position as one of the country’s leading actors.
