Katrina on YRF universe, Tiger 3 success
Katrina Kaif has said the YRF spy universe is turning out to be a well-defined franchise. She told PTI in an interview, “Each character is strong, well-written, well-defined and that’s what is beautiful about it. Every character is strong and unique, and you can bring the characters into each other’s worlds… It adds to the whole story and picture. With each film, you get familiar with the character and you go deeper into the story and their journey. This allows you to do more as you are more confident in your space and already have a history behind you.”
On the success of Tiger 3, she said, “The validation at the box office is like an exam. When you go for an exam, you want to get that A mark and the box office is like that… The ultimate validation.”
