The year of 2023 has been a year of comebacks. It all started with Shah Rukh Khan roaring like a monster with his Pathaan fetching record-breaking numbers. With his return, Shah Rukh proved why he’s called King of Bollywood. Then, after him, Rajinikanth made a smashing return with his Jailer, turning out to be a mega-blockbuster. And, of course, who can forget the magic Sunny Deol did with Gadar 2? Riding high on the nostalgia factor, the film earned over 500 crores net in India.
Salman Khan would also be hoping to make his place on that list as he badly needs a box office hit, and he has got a perfect film like Tiger 3 to do that. The film so far has ticked all the checkboxes. It is carrying immense hype in itself as it’s a part of a super-successful Tiger franchise. Also, there’s an excitement factor of sharing a connection with other Spy Universe films, and a cameo of Shah Rukh Khan as Pathaan is a thing that everyone is looking forward to.
