One of the most awaited Salman Khan movies ‘Tiger 3’, is reportedly ruling the advance booking collections. As fans await to see Salman as Tiger once again, the film trade analyst Taran Adarsh shared on the social media platform Instagram that Tiger 3 is ‘running riot in advance booking’. 

He also shared that “no Hindi film has dared to open on Diwali Day in more than a decade” as due to the Diwali celebrations, the film business tends to see a dip in evening shows.

“#Tiger3 is running riot in advance booking… No #Hindi film has dared to open on #DiwaliDay in *more than a decade*, since film biz takes a dip during certain hours [the evening shows in particular are impacted]… Can #Salmania and #Tiger3 do the unthinkable?” he wrote.

In another post, Adarsh shared that Tiger 3 has already sold 44,500 tickets for its opening day at the national chains as of now. While PVR INOX has sold 37,000 opening day tickets till now, Cinepolis has also sold 7,500 tickets for the Salman Khan upcoming film. In India, Tiger 3 advance bookings in India were opened on Saturday, November 4, which is actually a day before it was supposed to start.

Meanwhile, Film critic Sumit Kadel recently shared in a post that Tiger 3 is likely to earn Rs 40 crore or more on its first day.

Tiger 3 is all set to release on November 12, and its shows will start from 7 am across the country. Recently, the film’s production house issued a statement revealing the same. “YRF is set to open advance bookings of Tiger 3 in India from Nov 5th! The film is releasing during the Diwali vacation so cinemas have requested for an early start time as fans of the YRF Spy Universe have been reaching out to exhibitors to conduct early morning shows to avoid spoilers,” reads the statement.
