Mumbai (PTI): The release of Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif-led spy thriller "Tiger 3" has been postponed to Diwali 2023, the makers announced on Saturday.
Produced by Yash Raj Films (YRF), the film was earlier scheduled to be released on April 21, 2023 on the occasion of Eid.
The production banner took to its official Twitter page to share the new release date of the much-awaited action movie.
"Diwali 2023, Tiger will roar! Celebrate #Tiger3 with #YRF50 only at a big screen near you. Releasing in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu," Yash Raj Films said in a tweet.
Maneesh Sharma, best known for YRF titles "Fan" and "Band Baaja Baaraat", serves as director on "Tiger 3".
"Ek Tha Tiger", the first movie in the franchise was released in 2012. Directed by Kabir Khan, the movie revolved around the story of an Indian spy (RAW) code-named Tiger (Khan) who falls in love with a Pakistani spy Zoya (Kaif) during an investigation.
The success of the first film spawned into a franchise, in which "Tiger Zinda Hai" (2017) was the follow-up.
Based on true events, the Ali Abbas Zafar-helmed sequel saw Tiger and Zoya go on a mission to save a group of hostages held by a militant terrorist organization in Iraq.

Bengaluru: Actor Prakash Raj on Tuesday clarified that a photo of him taking a holy dip at the Maha Kumbh Mela, which is doing rounds across social media platforms, was fake. The multilingual actor has filed a police complaint against the miscreants in this regard.
The digitally manipulated image was posted by an account named Prashant Sambaragi, captioned: "Actor Prakash Raj at the Kumbh Mela. He bathed in the Triveni Sangam. Let's hope that his sins are washed away." The image also bizarrely showed the actor’s hand blending into an artificial design, suggesting the use of AI editing.
Taking to ‘X,’ actor Prakash Raj clarified that it was fake news. He stated, "Fake news. The job of the cowardly army of the 'False King' is to spread fake news and defile even their holy worship. A police complaint has been filed. Let's see what they do in the courtroom."
