Bollywood star Salman Khan has the perfect Diwali gift for his fans. The actor shared the first poster of his much-anticipated film opposite Katrina Kaif, Tiger Zinda Hai on Wednesday morning. The film is a sequel to Salman-Katrina-starrer Ekk Tha Tiger which was directed by Kabir Khan in 2012.
Salman reprises his role as an Indian special agent who falls in love with an ISI agent (played by Katrina Kaif) in the original. The two vanish overnight, leaving the agencies in both the countries scratching their heads.
Director Ali Abbas Zafar was supported by action coordinator Tom Struthers of Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises fame.
Zafar described the experience of shooting the film as “gruelling, challenging and a whole lot of fun”. “We’ve shot across pristine, relatively unseen locations in Austria, Morocco and shot on a huge lot in Abu Dhabi along with other spots. Right from the infrastructure, to the support that the local military has given us, shooting here was smooth and a great collaborative experience. Tiger and Zoya’s second outing is going to be larger than life, and the shoot lives up to that,” he said.
