Salman Khan's Tiger 3 hasn't exploded at the box office as expected but it is definitely going to go down in history as the biggest opening on Diwali day and as a unique Sunday release.
Exhibitor Akshaye Rathi says, "Salman Khan's Tiger 3 has opened extremely well despite the constraint that Sunday was the day for Laxmi Pooja. It is likely to register a Rs 30 crore figure, which should be the biggest for any film that has released on the day of Laxmi Pooja. The odds are always stacked against any film releasing on Diwali day, considering the fact that most people are busy with their pooja and celebrations at home. I expect Tiger 3's collections to compound heavily in the next three days, which are also festival days.''
Rathi further adds, "Beyond the festival days, it is also important to note how people are receiving Tiger 3 and going by the merit of the film, I really hope it goes a long way. After Jawan, the entire trade needs and deserves another hit and the audience need a film that entertains them.''
