In a surprising turn of events, the box office performance of Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif starrer, Tiger 3, took a severe hit, earning only 10.25 crore on its eighth day, largely attributed to the ongoing World Cup. The film had a lackluster first weekend, accumulating just 10.25 crore, as the cricketing event impacted its numbers. The filmmakers anticipated this decline, hoping for a strong comeback in the absence of major releases in the near future. Despite being hailed as one of Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif’s best movies, Tiger 3 faces challenges in surpassing the blockbuster records set by Shah Rukh Khan’s films, Jawan and Pathaan.

The setback on Sunday is largely attributed to the clash with the India vs Australia World Cup final match. Comparatively, Shah Rukh Khan’s comeback film, Pathaan, earned around Rs 17.50 crore on its eighth day, while Jawan had a robust collection of 19 crore. The World Cup has undeniably impacted Tiger 3’s weekend earnings, and the film’s ability to recover remains a point of interest.
