The latest installment, Tiger 3, stars Salman Khan, Katrina Kaif, and Emraan Hashmi. Each film in this franchise has been a huge hit.

Aditya Chopra introduced interconnectivity in the YRF Spy Universe storyline with Pathaan, revealing that the antagonist Jim, portrayed by John, was initially aligned with Kabir, played by Hrithik Roshan in the War franchise, before diverging from his path. 

In Pathaan, Aditya Chopra united Tiger and Pathaan on screen for the first time, unveiling that they share a strong friendship. Pathaan also featured in Tiger 3, and Hrithik Roshan made a cameo in an Easter egg scene that hinted at the storyline of War 2.

Adi realises the sky high expectations that every film from this spy universe currently has and he is adding a new twist to the timeline.” The source further added, “Adi wants to set up the mega clash of two of India’s biggest cinematic icons Shah Rukh Khan & Salman Khan with a film that will be a precursor to the violent face off in Tiger vs Pathaan.
