The much-awaited third installment to the much-beloved spy series frontlined by superstar Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif is breaking records even before hitting the big screen.
According to a Pinkvilla report, the action thriller has shown a huge promise in pre-sales figures, earning $ 150,000 or Rs 1.24 crore through sales, thirteen days before release. This makes ‘Tiger 3’ second only to ‘Jawan’ and ‘Pathan’ two tentpole blockbusters starring Shah Rukh Khan.
Salman Khan’s Upcoming Film Enjoys High Demand In UK & UAE
As per the report, two markets - the UK and UAE have contributed most to the high pre-sales numbers. Both of these countries are known to have a lot of diehard Salman Khan fans. In the UK, the pre-sales figures amounted to an impressive GBP 25,000 or Rs 25 lakh approximately, while in the UAE, pre-sales numbers have crossed $22,000 or Rs 18 lakh, with about 1,600 tickets sold! In the US market too, the espionage thriller has shown great promise, earning $50,000, or Rs 41 lakh, on the first day.
Although unlikely to cross the opening day figures of ‘Pathaan’ and ‘Jawaan’ ($4.50 million), ‘Tiger 3’ is nevertheless, expected to exceed $3.04 to $3.50 million, the first-day overseas collection of ‘Dhoom 3’ and another Salman-starrer ‘Sultan’.
