Ek Tha Tiger was a romantic-action thriller and there wasn’t any antagonist in the film. But, in the sequel Tiger Zinda Hai, actor Sajjad Delafrooz played the baddie and impressed one and all with his performance in the movie.
Soon, Tiger 3 is going to start rolling and fans of Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif are super excited about the movie. And here’s some interesting news about the film.
According to a report in Times Of India, Emraan Hashmi will be seen as an antagonist in Tiger 3. A source told TOI, “YRF felt that Emraan fits the role as a T. He is a fine, intense actor and that quality won him the role.”
Reportedly, in March, the first schedule of Tiger 3 will kickstart in Mumbai, and Emraan will be joining the team in March itself. The second schedule of the film is expected to roll in the Middle East and the third schedule will take place in Mumbai again.
Meanwhile, Emraan has some really interesting films lined-up like Mumbai Saga, Chehre, Ezra and Gangubai Kathiawadi. Reportedly, Mumbai Saga will be getting a direct-to-digital release on Amazon Prime Video, however, there’s no official announcement about it.
Talking about Tiger 3, the movie will be produced by Aditya Chopra and directed by Maneesh Sharma. It will be announced under the grand YRF 50 plan.

INDIA head coach Gautam Gambhir declined to discuss the 2027 World Cup prospects of senior players Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma, saying it was too early to look that far ahead despite acknowledging their quality.
Both players now feature internationally only in the 50-over format, but India appear to be managing a gradual transition rather than making sudden changes.
Rohit, who led India to the Champions Trophy title earlier this year, has been replaced by Shubman Gill as captain of the one-day side for the upcoming Australia tour.
Rohit and Kohli, with a combined total of 567 ODIs, have both been included in the three-match series against Australia, though their future beyond the tour remains uncertain.
"Look, the 50-over World Cup is still two-and-a-half years away, and I think it is very important to stay in the present," Gambhir told reporters after India completed a Test series sweep against West Indies on Tuesday.
"Obviously, they are quality players, they are coming back, their experience is going to be a handful in Australia as well.
"Hopefully, those two guys will have a successful tour, and more importantly, as a team, we will have a successful series."
Rohit, who captained India to the final of the 2023 ODI World Cup, will turn 40 by the time the next edition takes place, which will be co-hosted by South Africa, Zimbabwe and Namibia. Kohli, a member of India’s 2011 World Cup-winning squad, is a year younger.
All-rounder Ravindra Jadeja’s future in the format is also uncertain. The 37-year-old, part of the recent Champions Trophy-winning team, has been left out of the ODI squad for Australia.
Jadeja said the selectors had explained the reasons behind his omission and that he would stay prepared for future opportunities.
"It is a good thing that they communicated the reason behind my omission," Jadeja said during the second Test against West Indies.
"But whenever I get a chance next, I will try and do what I have done all these years.
"Winning a World Cup is everyone's dream. We had narrowly missed out the last time, the next time we will try and make up for it."
