Although several movies this year have underperformed, the Bollywood ship is still sailing well, thanks to the mega success of Shah Rukh Khan starrer Pathaan. The movie featured SRK, Deepika Padukone, and John Abraham in titular roles. However, it was Salman Khan's screen-shattering and terrific cameo that added a special touch to the spy drama. Speaking of cameos, fans are now eager to watch the Pathaan star make a special appearance in Salman's Tiger 3.

The cameos of Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan come to a point where the bad guy in the movie seems to be winning. In Pathaan, it was Tiger who rescued SRK from the baddies. Will it be the same in Tiger 3 as well? That, only the script can tell

However, what we exclusively know is Shah Rukh will start shooting for his special appearance in Tiger on May 8

A source close to the development revealed, 'Shah Rukh and Salman will shoot for the said sequence from May 8. The filming will take place in YRF (Yash Raj Films) Studio and is expected to go on for around 5 to 7 days.'

Because of King Khan's special appearance, the buzz for the Diwali release is already at its peak. After Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan, Salman Khan will see headlining Tiger 3 alongside Katrina Kaif and Emraan Hashmi

The source further added, 'Maneesh Sharma (director) and producer Aditya Chopra have done extensive prep for this scene.

Pathaan, The Tiger Franchise (Ek Tha Tiger, Tiger Zinda Hai, and Tiger 3), and War are a part of Aditya Chopra's ambitious attempt of creating a spy universe under the Yash Raj Films label. The forthcoming films of the franchise include War 2 starring Hrithik Roshan and Jr. NTR, and Tiger vs Pathaan featuring Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan in the lead.

Directed by Maneesh Sharma, Tiger 3 will see a theatrical release on November 10 in cinemas near you.
