‘Tiger 3’ collected a whopping INR44.5 crore across languages on the very day of release, making it the biggest opener for the Bollywood superstar Salman Khan and the third-highest for his heroine, Katrina Kaif.
However, actor-producer and self-proclaimed movie critic, Kamaal R. Khan aka KRK is least impressed by the plotline and while questioning the numbers, he threatened to take legal action against the makers.
Taking to his handle on the micro-blogging site X on Sunday morning, Khan shared his review of the spy flick in a series of posts. He wrote, “I went to watch film #Tiger3 because I thought that the story of the film will be about India. If I knew that the story of the film will be about Pakistan only, then I will never go to theatre. It’s 100% cheating.”
I went to watch film #Tiger3 because I thought that the story of the film will be about India. If I knew that the story of the film will be about Pakistan only, then I will never go to theatre. Because I am least interested to watch a film about Pakistan. It’s 100% cheating.

“Story of #Tiger3. Raw + ISI = All Become Friends! They all are in Pakistan to Save life of Pakistan PM Benazir Bhutto, because Emraan Hashmi wants to kill her to become PM. It’s one of the most Wahiyat film of the century. So I give 0*,” he reviewed in another post.
Story of #Tiger3
Raw + ISI = All Become Friends!

Moreover, Khan was also annoyed to be not able to see the teased cameos of other YRF spy heroes Hrithik Roshan and Jr. NTR as well as by the limited appearance of Shahrukh Khan.
Mr. Adi Chopra, pls tell me, why do I want to know, how Benazir Bhutto did become PM? How she was running govt of Pakistan? How she was killed? You are mentally bankrupt if you want to show such a film to Indian people. Have some shame. Aaa Thooo!

Further addressing filmmaker Aditya Chopra, KRK stated, “You have wasted my time, money and energy. So I will file a case in consumer court for sure.”
Dear Adi Chopra, if you wanted to make a film about politics and situation of Pakistan, then you could have made a Pakistani film, not a Hindi film #Tiger3? You have wasted my time, money and energy. So I will file a case in consumer court for sure.

For the unversed, YRF chief Aditya Chopra wrote the story of the sequel himself, while, director Maneesh Sharma (of ‘Fan’ and ‘Band Baaja Baaraat’ fame) helms with the direction, under the production banner Yash Raj Films. The spy actioner stars Emraan Hashmi as the main antagonist with lead duo Khan and Kaif.
