Fans cannot contain the excitement as Tiger 3 releases on Sunday on the occasion of Diwali. More than that, it will be Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif's first Diwali release together.

They have worked in many films throughout their long careers but have never had a Diwali release together. With Tiger 3, even that has happened.

Speaking about the same, Salman Khan said, "It is always special to have a release in Diwali because I have very fond memories of how the festival has always blessed me with good luck. It is quite amazing that Katrina and I, as a pair, haven't had any Diwali releases, and Tiger 3 will be our first Diwali film! As co-stars, we have done films that have been loved by many people. So, if we can give them the best Diwali with Tiger 3, we would be very humbled."

Salman Khan took to Instagram to share a picture of him and Katrina in traditional attire.

It's also my first film with Salman to be released on Diwali! Salman and I are looking forward to entertaining everyone and adding even more joy and excitement to this Diwali's festivities."

"For me, Diwali has always been that festival that brings people together and brings families together. I'm looking forward to spending this Diwali with my folks. I will watch Tiger 3 with my entire family this Diwali, and I hope everyone else does too and thoroughly enjoys this big screen experience."
