Tiger 3 review

Bollywood Bubble gave Tiger 4 out of 5 stars. A part of the review read, “I would end my Tiger 3 review saying that it is the perfect gift for this Diwali. Aditya Chopra has made the franchise even bigger and Tiger and Zoya’s return is banging. Tiger will always be the OG spy of the universe and Salman proves everytime why. Tiger 3 lives up to the hype and expectations and maybe more. The tiger has truly roared.”

To note, Tiger 3 has a straight 3-week window at the box office until Sam Bahadur and Animal’s release on 1^st December. It is expected to become the 4^th Hindi film to enter the 500 crore club at the Indian box office.
