Salman Khan, Katrina Kaif’s Tiger 3 Delhi schedule postponed due to rise in Covid-19 cases

Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif’s upcoming film Tiger 3’s shoot schedule in Delhi has been postponed.

Due to the surge in Covid-19 cases in the country, several cities are now under partial lockdown, which includes the capital city.

Team Tiger 3 was heading to Delhi for a shoot in mid-January, which has now been pushed further due to the pandemic. YRF has decided to push the date due to the surge in Omicron cases in the country.

TIGER 3 DELHI SCHEDULE POSTPONED
Earlier, there were reports of Salman Khan instructing Tiger 3 crew to enforce strict norms on sets amid rising Covid-19 cases. According to a report in Mid-Day, Tiger 3 had lined up a 15-day shoot schedule in Delhi.

Salman and Katrina had last shot together for the film in Europe in September. They will be shooting some dramatic scenes during the Delhi stint. However, with the sudden rise in Covid-19 cases, the makers of the film, including producer Aditya Chopra and director Maneesh Sharma have decided to cancel the Delhi schedule.

The new portal also quoted a trade source who revealed that it is best not to plan big outdoor shooting schedules for now. The source said, “It’s a well-thought-out decision by Adi, Maneesh and the team.

The portions in question will be shot at real locations. Since the Omicron threat is looming, the makers are choosing to be cautious. While [other] challenging schedules were completed through the pandemic, the team didn’t want to take any unnecessary risk.”
