REVEALED: Why is Salman Khan’s Tiger 3 releasing on Sunday, not on Friday?

After Pathaan, Tiger 3 is the most-awaited instalment from Yash Raj Films’ Spy Universe. Starring Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif, the action-thriller will hit the silver screen on November 12, on the occasion of Diwali. Notably, films under big banners release on Friday but Tiger 3 will be in theatres on a Sunday. 

The production house, YRF, has now revealed the reason behind the decision. In a press note, YRF stated that 2023 is the year of ‘Adhik Maas’, which led to multiple complications regarding festivals. The note further called it a ‘strategic and unique’ release plan. “This year, Monday, November 13, is New Moon/Amavasya and the Govardhan Pooja/Gujarati New Year falls on November 14. Bhai Dooj is on November 15, giving the film an extended run in this crucial holiday period, which will aid in collections through the week,” the note read.
