The countdown for the release of the movie, Tiger 3, has officially started. This action-packed movie, directed by Maneesh Sharma and produced by YRF, is the fifth instalment of the ambitious YRF Spy Universe. Fans can expect the trailer to drop on October 16th at noon.

One of the biggest assumptions surrounding the movie has been its release date. Tiger 3 is all set to hit the big screen on Sunday, November 12, 2023, in both India and international markets. This strategic move to release the film on a Sunday is a first for a Hindi movie in recent years.

The decision to choose this particular Sunday as the release date is a well-thought-out plan by all the stakeholders involved. YRF sees this as an opportunity to create a unique release pattern for Tiger 3. In 2023, the Hindi calendar marks the year as "Adhik Mass," which has led to conflicts with the dates of various festivals. The Hindu calendar states that Monday, November 13, falls on Amavasya, which is considered astrologically unfavorable for a movie release. On the other hand, November 14 marks Govardhan Pooja and the Gujarati New Year. Bhai Dooj, a significant festival, will be celebrated on November 15. YRF aims to make the most of the extended holiday period in the opening week.

YRF's strategic thinking extends beyond India; they have their eyes set on the international market as well. In 2016, YRF broke the norm and released the Salman Khan and Anushka Sharma starrer Sultan a day before Eid, which resulted in a record-breaking non-holiday opening day and weekend. Similarly, the release of Pathaan on January 25, a day before Republic Day, also paid off for YRF. Taking inspiration from past successes, YRF is eager to maximize the business not just in India but also in international markets with Tiger 3.

Tiger 3 holds the distinction of being the most ambitious movie in the Hindi Film Industry. It marks the return of the iconic character Tiger, played by Salman Khan, and the first female spy of the YRF Spy Universe, Zoya, portrayed by Katrina Kaif. The official release date of Tiger 3 will be announced alongside the trailer, which will be released on Monday.

In a surprising turn of events, YRF has managed to secure an IMAX Exclusive Deal for Tiger 3 in India. This means that the movie will have exclusive screenings in Indian IMAX theatres, even over the highly anticipated MCU movie, The Marvels, which also releases on Diwali. However, it's important to note that this information is still unverified.

As the release of Tiger 3 draws nearer, the excitement among fans continues to grow. With its well-chosen release date and strategic decisions, YRF is looking to make Tiger 3 a grand success both in India and across the globe. Stay tuned for more updates from the world of entertainment!
