Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif starrer 'Tiger 3' has set the box office ablaze, achieving a remarkable feat by entering the Rs 100 crore club within just two days of its release. The YRF Spy Universe film, which premiered on Diwali with an impressive opening of Rs 44.50 crore, witnessed an outstanding surge on day 2, collecting Rs 57.50 crore (early estimates). The film's global collection of Rs 94 crores on Monday shattered records, marking the highest-grossing Diwali Day in Hindi cinema history and establishing Salman Khan's biggest opening day. 'Tiger 3' is directed by Maneesh Sharma and sets the stage for future Spy Universe installments.

Superstar Salman Khan urged fans to enjoy his film Tiger 3 "without putting ourselves and others at risk" after videos showed firecrackers being burst inside theaters. During a show, fans set off firecrackers causing panic. Khan criticized it saying, "This is dangerous. Let's enjoy the film without putting ourselves and others at risk. Stay safe." Police are filing charges against the unidentified accused. Salman slammed the "dangerous" actions of fans bursting firecrackers during Tiger 3 screenings and told viewers to stay safe and not put themselves or others at risk.

Salman Khan is riding high on the success of Tiger 3. However, some concerning videos were shared on X, showing fans set off fireworks during the screening inside a houseful theatre. Going by the video, it seems that rockets were set off in the packed room which led the terrified crowd to run out of the theatre room. In another incident, the actor’s fan club in Malegaon also set off fireworks during the screening of Tiger 3. The film featuring Katrina Kaif and Emraan Hashmi alongside the actor is receiving a heartwarming response in the view of box-office collections and reviews. Despite the celebrations of Diwali collections on day one are approx. Rs 44.50 crore according to Sacnilk, higher than Khan’s previous massive openers Bharat (Rs 42.30 crore) and Prem Ratan Dhan Payo (Rs 40.35 crore). It was a unique strategy on the part of Yash Raj Films to release Tiger 3 on a Sunday, something never done before, and that too on the day of Diwali.

Bollywood superstars Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan were seen celebrating Diwali together on Sunday night. The actors attended a Diwali party hosted by Salman's sister Arpita Khan, which also saw the presence of several other Bollywood celebrities. Interestingly, their reunion coincided with the release of Salman's much-awaited film Tiger 3, which opened to bumper response at the box office. Videos of Salman and Shah Rukh exiting the party venue together have gone viral, much to the delight of their fans. Their camaraderie was heartwarming to see, especially considering SRK has an extended cameo in Tiger 3. The film registering an impressive opening has added to the celebratory mood. Overall, it turned out to be a Diwali bonanza for the fans of the two superstar Khans. [ photo courtesy: screengrab from @viralvayani, @Manav.mangalani /instagram]

Salman Khan returns as Tiger in the entertaining but inconsistent actioner Tiger 3. The film sees Tiger recharged for a new mission, packed with over-the-top action and mind-boggling twists. Director Maneesh Sharma delivers decent performances and an intriguing, if unevenly paced, plot. The first half underwhelms despite the complex story. The second half picks up momentum with top-notch fights and whistle-worthy moments. At 1.5 hours, it feels stretched until Shah Rukh Khan's much-touted 15-minute cameo energizes it as the highlight. Tiger 3 ultimately delivers a fulfilling climax but underutilizes Salman's stardom with an inconsistent pace. Entertaining for fans, just don't expect subtlety.

The Delhi Police has registered an FIR over a viral deepfake video of actor Rashmika Mandanna. The video shows a woman's face edited using AI to resemble Mandanna inside an elevator. Mandanna expressed hurt and concern over the misuse of technology. The police case cites charges including identity theft and privacy violation under the IT Act. This comes after the Indian government issued a stern reminder to social media platforms about legal provisions governing deepfakes. Deepfakes use AI to digitally replace a person's likeness in media. Mandanna, known for films like 'Pushpa', spoke out against her video, prompting police action. 

Rumors circulate that Salman Khan's upcoming film, 'Tiger 3,' is reportedly banned in Oman, Kuwait, and Qatar, echoing the fate of Akshay Kumar's 'Samrat Prithviraj.' Speculations point to the portrayal of Islamic countries and characters in a negative light as the reason behind the alleged ban. While unconfirmed, fans speculate on social media, linking the ban to Katrina Kaif's towel scene. 'Tiger 3' is anticipated to set new Diwali box office records upon its release.

Shah Rukh Khan treats fans to fresh Dunki posters on Diwali, building anticipation for the upcoming film directed by Rajkumar Hirani. The actor's social media post expresses the essence of celebrating with family and hints at the unique storyline. The #DunkiDrop1 teaser, released earlier, introduces a heartwarming tale of four friends navigating life-changing journeys. Starring Taapsee Pannu alongside Shah Rukh, Dunki promises a blend of love, friendship, and real-life experiences. The film is set for a Christmas release in cinemas worldwide.

Hollywood actors have reached a deal to end their months-long strike against major studios. The Screen Actors Guild (SAG-AFTRA) agreed to a new 3-year contract with Disney, Netflix and others including higher pay and AI protections, ending the 118-day strike. Many shows and films were delayed due to the strike. Celebrities reacted joyfully on social media, with SAG-AFTRA President Fran Drescher calling it a "historic deal." George Clooney told Drescher he'd have bet his house they couldn't get such a deal. Meryl Streep suggested Drescher run for president next. Mark Ruffalo tweeted congratulations, saying "When we fight we win" and urging inspiration from fellow union members. The deal brought relief after disrupting Hollywood for months.
