TIGER 3 is the story of a spy whose family is in danger. Avinash Singh Rathore aka Tiger (Salman Khan) goes on a dangerous mission to save Gopi (Ranvir Shorey) of R&AW. Tiger rescues Gopi who in turn gives the former the information that Pakistan is planning a dangerous mission. Before breathing his last breath, Gopi also tells Tiger that his wife Zoya (Katrina Kaif), an ex-ISI official, is also a part of this mission. Tiger keeps a close tab on Zoya and realizes that she hasn't compromised. Maithili Menon (Revathy), the new chief of R&AW, asks Tiger to go to St. Petersburg, Russia, and meet Jibran Shaikh (Neeraj Purohit), who has vital information. Tiger saves Jibran in the nick of time only to realize that Zoya is trying to assassinate the latter. Zoya then confesses that she is compelled to work for ex-ISI official, Aatish Rehman (Emraan Hashmi), as he has kept their son Junior (Sartaaj Kakkar) hostage. Aatish tells Tiger and Zoya to head to Istanbul, Turkey for a dangerous mission that will make them most wanted in their respective countries. What happens next forms the rest of the film.

Aditya Chopra's story is promising. Shridhar Raghavan's screenplay is fine but is unimaginative in several places. Anckur Chaudhry's dialogues lack the punch. A film like this should have had many more hard-hitting dialogues.

Maneesh Sharma's direction is fine. To give credit where it's due, he handles the scale and grandeur like a pro. A few scenes are memorable like Tiger’s entry, Tiger getting suspicious of Zoya, Pathaan’s (Shah Rukh Khan) entry etc. The national anthem sequence in the climax will give goosebumps. Aatish’s flashback and his connection with Zoya is intriguing. Viewers will be fascinated to know that Tiger and Zoya almost came face to face before the events of EK THA TIGER [2012].

On the flipside, the direction is not smooth and is incoherent in some scenes. The action gives a feeling of been-there-done-that. The sequence of Tiger and Zoya robbing the briefcase is very similar to Pathaan and Rubai (Deepika Padukone) stealing Raktbeej in Moscow. Also, the whole mission is to save Pakistan and this might not go down well with certain sections of the audience. The makers should have clearly highlighted that saving Pakistan was important in order to safeguard the interests of India.

Speaking of performances, Salman Khan rocks the show. He underplays his part and looks great in action scenes. Katrina Kaif, too, gets the chance to shine. Her scenes in the hamam and the bunker are memorable. Emraan Hashmi looks dashing and tries his best to be menacing. But he is let down a bit by the script. Ranvir Shorey is fair in a cameo. Revathy and Simran (Pakistan PM Nasreen Irani) leave a mark. Kumud Mishra (Rakesh) is dependable. Anant Vidhaat (Karan), Chandrachoor Rai (Nikhil), Gavie Chahal (Abrar) and Danish Bhat (Javed) are okay. Vishal Jethwa (Hassan) and Sartaaj Kakkar don't get much scope. The same goes for Ridhi Dogra (Shaheen). Danish Husain (D G Riaz) and Shahid Lateef (General Haq) are passable. Aamir Bashir (Rehaan Nazar) passes muster. Michelle Lee (Gen Zimou) is too good. Lastly, Shah Rukh Khan and Hrithik Roshan add to the star value as well as the mass element of the film.
Pritam's music isn’t impressive. 'Leke Prabhu Ka Naam' is catchy but won’t have a shelf life. 'Ruaan' is more memorable for its situation than the tune. Tanuj Tiku's background score enhances the entertainment.

Anay Om Goswamy's cinematography is spectacular. The various locales of the world are well captured. Mayur Sharma's production design is appealing. Franz Spilhaus, Oh Sea Young and Sunil Rodrigues' action is quite good when seen individually. But when compared with the films of the Spy Universe, it is not novel. Anaita Shroff Adajania, Alvira Khan Agnihotri, Ashley Rebello and Darshan Jalan's costumes are stylish. yFX's VFX matches global standards. Rameshwar S Bhagat's editing is appropriate but isn’t smooth in a few scenes.

On the whole TIGER 3 is a predictable action fare that has SALMANIA written all over it with lots of seeti-maar moments - Salman's introduction scene, Shah Rukh Khan's cameo, and the climax. At the box office, it will start huge due to the immense hype and is likely to emerge as a super hit.

Tiger 3’ continues the saga of YRF's spy universe, with the same old premise of a highly motivated terrorist harbouring an utterly misplaced idea of patriotism. Shridhar Raghavan’s story serves as a canvas for director Maneesh Sharma to put up a high-octane action show that weaves the elements of duty, personal sacrifice, and patriotism. Bhai fans can rejoice, as he looks fresh and back in perfect form. He goes all out performing dare-devil stunts that not only defy death and gravity but also logic. Nonetheless, it’s a full-blown visual spectacle

The narrative is packed with constant thrills, and plot twists, many of them predictable but snackable too. Anay Goswamy’s breathtaking cinematography deftly captures the scale of this globe-trotting espionage saga that seamlessly travesses across Europe, Russia, Istanbul, India and Pakistan.

Emraan Hashmi shines as the ruthless antagonist, Aatish, despite a very cliched characterisation that lacks conviction. While the film leans on familiar spy genre elements, inspired by Hollywood hits and many Bollywood blockbusters, it ensures there’s no dearth of adrenaline-pumping action sequences. This time though, the film’s leading lady Katrina Kaif gets a well-defined character arc with a convincing backstory, a solid motive and context. Katrina pulls off an action-heavy role with ease, kicking some serious butt. Her fight scene in towel with Asian American actress Michelle Lee is nicely done.

Despite its expected storyline and reliance on established spy movie tropes, 'Tiger 3' navigates a delicate balance between showcasing patriotism and overdramatising it. The timely cameo by Shahrukh Khan as Pathaan, is integrated seamlessly into the story. It’s sure to hit home with the fans of both the Khans.

This time around, Pritam’s music falls short of leaving a lasting impact. The writing tends to portray Pakistan as the perennial antagonist without delving into nuanced motivations and the complex geo-political landscape of the continent. The dialogues lack the punch to evoke constant applause and seetis from Bhai fans. Despite such heavy dependence on VFX, ‘Tiger 3’ lacks the required finesse in many scenes, much like its jarring background score (by Tanuj Tiku). The swift pacing makes up for many a flaws, with a taut edit by Rameshwar S. Bhagat.

But overall, 'Tiger 3' qualifies as a good addition to the franchise with enough ammo for mass entertainment.


Minutes into 'Tiger 3', we are told that the agents are heading into a project called ‘Mission Time-Pass’. The tagline is also an apt ode to the experience that one has in these larger-than-life indigenous spy films. This time around, the Tiger universe is a bit crowded. With the birth of YCU (Yashraj Cinematic Universe), the possibility of other spies like Kabir (Hrithik Roshan) and Pathaan (Shah Rukh Khan) to cross over and make their presence felt in Tiger’s world is more than just a passable thought.
The plot of 'Tiger 3’ revolves around a favourite plot point, the India- Pakistan relationship and the underground spy war. Tiger's mission is to heal ties and prevent a military coup and the assassination of the Pakistani prime minister. His nemesis is a Pakistani agent gone rouge named Aatish (Emraan Hashmi), who wants to take over the country and burn any bridges of peace with its neighbouring country.

Tiger 3’s major asset is its leading man - Salman Khan. Playing front foot for most of the film, Salman doesn’t take too long to get into the skin of Tiger. Perhaps aware of the new entrants in his otherwise solo universe, he’s sharper and more aware of the responsibilities he shoulders. Unlike the first two films, Maneesh Sharma’s 'Tiger 3' is more verbose and dialogue heavy.
Emraan’s character is so well-defined that as the plot progresses you start investing more in his back story than what Tiger sets out to do. The action is slick and there are multiple high-octane chase scenes that look superb on the big screen.

The big ticket moment that everyone is waiting for comes post internal with Pathaan and Tiger displaying their star power and natural camaraderie to full glory. Later, post credit roll, there is also an easter egg that has another spy make a dashing cameo appearance as a prelude to guess where the next action piece will unfold.

'Tiger 3' gives Emraan Hashmi the glory he deserves. One of the most underrated actors who has sustained his stardom despite decades of change, Emraan goes all out to play the menacing Aatish. Everything from his body language to his appearance is just a perfect fit to play the baddie who takes on Tiger.
Katrina Kaif as Zoya is insanely good. She’s already proved her mettle in the action scenes in the previous film, with fans asking makers to make a spinoff devoted to Zoya. With 'Tiger 3', she gets an extended back story and much more depth to her character and her shifting alliance between India and Pakistan. Katrina definitely deserves her very own action franchise!
'Tiger 3’s weakest moments are hidden in the gaps of a somewhat weak story line. The India- Pakistan premise feels a bit outdated and the idea of an Indian agent going all out to save the life of the neighbouring country's PM feels a tad bit stretched. The national anthem moment also feels a bit out of place and forced.

Despite an over crowded spy universe, Tiger manages to hold his own ground. Salman Khan fans won’t be disappointed, but someone give Katrina Kaif a Zoya series pronto!

Tiger is back. Tiger 3, the third part in the Tiger franchise (Ek Tha Tiger and Tiger Zinda Hai), reunites us with Salman Khan the spy, who still makes a killer ‘daal’, loves his beloved ‘biwi’ Zoya (Katrina Kaif) and his son Junior, and this time around both Tiger and Zoya save Pakistan with the help of their friends. Just like Tiger says in the film, ‘Damaad hoon to iss mulk ki hifazat karna bhi mera farz hai.’

Tiger 3 goes several steps ahead in establishing a conduit between Pakistan and India: if their spies can come together against a shared foe, why can’t the two hostile countries? Bollywood is the only industry that dares to go this “aman-ki-asha” route with such cloying boldness; since Salman crossed the boundary with success in Bajrangi Bhaijaan, why not try again?

Fifteen minutes into this movie, when its goal gets locked, you figure this isn’t merely an excuse to somehow stitch together a sequel and make it into a spy franchise. There’s a definite objective: To save Pakistan from having another military coup from an ex-military officer Aatish Rehmani (Emraan Hashmi) who will go to any lengths to become Wazeer-e-azam of the Pakistani hukumat.
Of course, Salman Khan effectively becomes a superman or like he had once mentioned ‘Sal-man.’ He is every bit the superhero in Tiger 3 that his fans have been waiting with bated breath for this entire year. Whatever Salman-ness his fans have been deprived of, this film pours on them in abundance.

It goes without saying that Katrina is breathtakingly beautiful, and with Tiger 3, she ups her glam factor even more. Her appearance is breathtaking, but she also performs some daring stunts that nearly take her life. She is fierce, bold, and smart.

Although the film relies heavily on Salman’s heroic abilities it does get tiresome towards the end. But what makes it entertaining is Emraan Hashmi’s character Aatish Rehmani. Every hero needs a worthy villain, and director Maneesh Sharma can use Emraan’s crooked smile and his cunning avatar to make Aatish come across as a man whose emotions have shut down. More than the physical strength, it is the mind games that convince us that Aatish is more than a match for Tiger. The two play a lot of mind games repeatedly in the course of the film and most of the time, the contest either ends in a stalemate or Aatish is the winner.
Finding the meaning of existence is similar to reviewing a proper Salman Khan movie. You won’t understand it at all, and life will continue as it should. To wake up at 6 am with a full house auditorium rooting for the super-hero Sal-man is a very different kind of experience—something that also has a charm of its own. There are many sweet-worthy moments in Tiger 3 including the cameos (which is known by everyone). Salman fans are in for a treat this Diwali.

The roar is back… #Tiger3 is the biggest dhamaka you can expect this #Diwali… Excellent second half, solid action pieces, superb cameos and of course, a ferocious #SalmanKhan. #Tiger3Review

2023 marks the comeback of *well-made* masala entertainers that also revived the struggling theatrical biz: Pathaan, Jawan and Gadar2… It’s time to add yet another prominent title to this distinguished list: Tiger3.

Director ManeeshSharma gets an opportunity of a lifetime to direct the hugely-awaited threequel and he makes a mass-friendly film that works at most times… However, the writing could’ve been more effective, in the first half specifically.

KatrinaKaif is in superb form and her action sequences in particular will bowl you over… EmraanHashmi is all fire and acid, the antagonist packs a punch with a knockout performance.

Lastly, NEVER EVER write off the mighty Khans… Earlier this year, #SRK silenced the naysayers with #Pathaan [Jan] and followed it up with a bigger victory #Jawan [Sept]… Now watch SalmanKhan return with a vengeance with Tiger3.

It has been 12 years since Tiger (Salman Khan) and Zoya (Katrina Kaif) are on an exile from their respective intelligence agencies, and little did they know that their past could return, taking the face of an evil named Aatish (Emraan Hashmi). 12 years after parting ways, Aatish is back with vengeance to bring a disruption in the lives of Tiger and Zoya, which in turn impacts the entire socio-political dynamics between India and Pakistan. He stands in between the demand of peace between the two rival nations. How do Tiger and Zoya combat the scenario? Do they manage to settle the previous score? What is it that Aatish aspires to do? All of this and lot more unfolds in Tiger 3.
The biggest USP of Tiger 3 is the story by Aditya Chopra developed into a screenplay by Shridhar Raghavan. The film takes no time to introduce the evil forces of the film and invest us into the world of Tiger and Zoya created by Maneesh Sharma. Tiger 3 goes against the template of spy films established by YRF in the last few years, as this one is driven by a coherent story that brings it all together and even closes a lot of loops.

The narrative is packed with surprises, be it the introduction of characters from other spy films of the universe, as also bringing back the actors who were a part of Ek Tha Tiger and Tiger Zinda Hai. The action sequences are taken to the next level, as it's unlike what we have seen in Hindi Cinema before. The team excels in merging the reality of action with the larger-than-life approach, and it’s Salman Khan who makes it look all believable. Watch out for the Tiger Introductory sequence – it’s going to be the talk of the town. There’s something magical in Salman Khan’s screen presence.
And if that’s not enough, Katrina Kaif yet again proves why she is the best when it comes to performing stunts on the big screen. The Tiger and Pathaan crossover sequence is worth all the hype and the creator of the universe, Aditya Chopra deserves all the credit for celebrating two of the biggest icons of Indian Cinema in this manner. The Shah Rukh Khan x Salman sequence has a flavour that’s different from what they did in Pathaan.

Some of the best moments of Tiger 3 include – the introductory sequence of Tiger, Aatish’s back story, the pre-interval chase sequence, Tiger x Pathaan cross over, the emotional under-tones in the pre-climax at Pakistan Parliament, and the action-packed finale followed by National Anthem.

It’s commendable on part of Aditya Chopra and Maneesh Sharma to maintain the flavour of Tiger Franchise and keep it different from the world of War and Pathaan. Full marks to YRF for mounting Tiger 3 at this scale, as its probably the most polished product of the YRF Spy Universe.
Tiger 3 belongs to one man and that’s Salman Khan. It’s so good to see him in prime form as he mouths all those dialogues with utmost conviction bringing in an irresistible swag in his body language. Salman Khan is meant to play Tiger and he proves it for the third time. While he shines in the action sequences, what stands-out in Tiger 3 are the emotional and dramatic moments featuring Salman. Maneesh does well to explore the actor in Salman, and it’s a perfect amalgamation between his larger-than-life aura and the acting talent. Katrina Kaif as Zoya is phenomenal, as she lives through the character. The entire crux of Tiger 3 revolves around Zoya and it's difficult to imagine anyone but Kat in this part. Watch out for the towel action sequence and her fight scene in second half – it’s sure to bring the house down with claps and cheers.

Emraan Hashmi as Aatish makes for a strong opposition to the force of Tiger and Zoya. It’s after a while that one gets to see grey shades of Emraan and he proves to be a worthy antagonist in the film. His backstory is strong with some unexpected twists and turns. Shah Rukh Khan makes a dashing appearance as Pathaan and picks up the character right from where he left it in Pathaan. SRK brings the house down with his aura and screen presence. His dialogue delivery is top notch like always as he mouths those one-liners with ease and is at his charming best as Pathaan. Ranveer Shorey makes an appearance as Gopi from Ek Tha Tiger, whereas Kumud Mishra and co return as the Tiger Zinda Hai gang. All the characters serve as a good easter egg for the franchise lovers.

And what do we say about the END CREDIT SCENE? Just watch it to believe it as Hrithik Roshan makes a special appearance setting things up for the future. We won’t get into the details, but don’t miss the approach of Hrithik to the character of Kabir – It’s as stylish as it gets, but yet promises so much substance on the performance front.
Overall, Tiger 3 rides hugely mounted action sequences backed with power performances by Salman Khan, Katrina Kaif and Emraan Hashmi. While pacing is an issue at some places, the core plot has enough of an emotional connect to keep you glued on the big screen. It’s great to see Salman Khan doing films of scale that justifies his stardom deserves. Overall, Tiger 3 is an action-packed entertainer that has all the ingredients to emerge Salman Khan’s biggest grosser till date. Watch it.


Back in 2012, when Salman Khan and Yash Raj Films collaborated for Ek Tha Tiger, little did we know this would turn into a franchise and the production house would revel in creating a spy universe where every other character saved the day for the other.
The first film was about the romance between a RAW and an ISI agent, both unaware of each other’s identities and intentions. It was expansively (and expensively) shot across multiple locations, something filmmaker Kabir Khan always found delight in. The sequel narrated the ordeal of a group of nurses held hostages in a hospital and Tiger and Zoya, now married with a son, taking charge. Tiger 3is about an old enemy who’s a new entrant in the franchise. He has lost his family and Tiger is the culprit, he’s thirsty for vengeance and hungry for revenge. The man is Emraan Hashmi, and it’s good to see him in shades of black. The man is even dressed in dark suits to compliment his evilness.
Salman Khan is accused of being a traitor, his son’s life is in jeopardy, and this is a moment where talking off the shirt isn’t the smartest option. Sharma establishes moments for both Khan and Kaif where they leave their vanity behind and attack the human side of their characters. For a change, Tiger becomes Avinash Singh Rathore. And both the actors have lived these people long enough to know when to stop being stars and start breathing ordinariness. For all the bones he breaks outside, at home, the Tiger is nothing but tamed by family. And for all the beauty and badassery she displays, Zoya too is aware of how to be a mother and a wife.
To be a human and a hero together requires conviction, but Tiger 3 isn’t able to juice up the emotion and the amalgamation. The lead actors requested fans not to spoil the experience for others by giving out spoilers, but there are barely any shocks. In Pathaan, Tiger saved the day for the bruised and battered hero (Shah Rukh Khan), in Tiger 3, it’s the other way round and joining them is Kabir from War (Hrithik Roshan). This isn’t a spoiler since it’s already trending on social media.

The other problem with part three is there’s too much talking going on for a film that belongs to a spy universe. The mundane lines about revenge, country, family, retribution all show up, what needed to be present was little more thrill and tension.
Both John Abraham in Pathaan and Emraan Hashmi in Tiger 3 have a backstory that justifies what they did and what they ultimately became. They were victims that chose to walk on the streets of villainy and fire. And both embodied their characters with swag and style. But this is about the past. Yash Raj Films is far from done with their universe. We still have War 2 left, and maybe Pathaan 2 and possibly Tiger 4. And before we can even see what lies in these movies, it’ll be all over social media. How about Pathaan, Tiger, and Kabir joining hands to combat social media menace? And do more action and less talking? But only for the slick action and the final surprise post end credits (and Salman Khan’s aura), here’s an extra-half star.
