The first film ''[[Ek Tha Tiger]]'' (2012) and its sequel ''[[Tiger Zinda Hai]]'' (2017) centres on a fictional [[R&AW]] agent played by [[Salman Khan]]. ''[[War (2019 film)|War]]'' (2019) tells the story of a R&AW agent played by [[Hrithik Roshan]] who goes rogue. Before making War, producer [[Aditya Chopra]] and director [[Siddharth Anand]] came up with the idea of merging these films and creating a [[shared universe]] by crossing over these characters who all belongs to R&AW. However, War was still made as an independent film without having any links with the films of Tiger franchise with an idea of creating proper foundation for the characters to have proper crossovers.

However, ''War'' was still made as a standalone film without directly connecting to the first two ''Tiger'' films—supporting the idea of creating a proper foundation for the ''War'' characters before a proper crossover.


''Pathaan'' (2023) starring [[Shah Rukh Khan]] as the titular character and a R&AW agent, directed by Anand will be the first film to have characters appearing from both Tiger franchise and War. It will be marked as the 4th film in the SPY Universe and the first YRF film to have a crossover.<ref>{{cite web|title=Ashutosh Rana to reprise War role in Shah Rukh Khan starrer Pathan|url=https://www.bollywoodhungama.com/amp/news/bollywood/ashutosh-rana-reprise-war-role-shah-rukh-khan-starrer-pathan/|date=4 August 2021|work=[[Bollywood Hungama]]}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |title=Salman Khan to join Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone and John Abraham at the top of Burj Khalifa for Pathan|url=https://www.bollywoodhungama.com/news/bollywood/scoop-salman-khan-join-shah-rukh-khan-deepika-padukone-john-abraham-top-burj-khalifa-pathan|date=17 February 2021|access-date=17 February 2021 |work=Bollywood Hungama}}</ref>

YRF Spy Universe is an Indian shared universe centered on a series of spy action-thriller films, which feature various fictional RAW agents. It is produced and distributed by Yash Raj Films.[1][2]

The franchise is commercially successful by having grossed ₹2,419 crore on a combined budget of ₹635 crore, thus becoming the second highest-grossing Indian franchise.

Overview[edit]

The shared universe, initially started out as a single movie series, later was established by crossing over common plot elements, settings, cast, and characters.[3]

The first film Ek Tha Tiger (2012) and its sequel Tiger Zinda Hai (2017) centre on a fictional R&AW agent played by Salman Khan. War (2019) tells the story of a RAW agent played by Hrithik Roshan who goes rogue. Before making War, producer Aditya Chopra and director Siddharth Anand came up with the idea of merging these films and creating a shared universe by crossing over the characters who all belong to the RAW. However, War was still made as a standalone film without directly connecting to the first two Tiger films—supporting the idea of creating a proper foundation for the War characters before a proper crossover.

Pathaan (2023) starring Shah Rukh Khan as the titular character and a RAW agent, directed by Anand, is the first film to have characters appearing from both the Tiger franchise and War. It is the fourth film in the SPY Universe and the first YRF film to have a crossover.[4][5]

Critical and public response[edit]

Ek Tha Tiger (2012)[edit]

Main article: Ek Tha Tiger

In India, there was praise for the film's feminist themes, with Marjolaine Gout noting the film is "a roaring, visual, comic feast where the damsel in distress fights back", giving Ek Tha Tiger 3.5 out of 5 stars.[35] Anupama Chopra of the Hindustan Times also commended the feminist themes, saying "it's such a pleasure to see a Hindi film heroine not [be] a damsel in distress", while also praising the film's action sequences, giving Ek Tha Tiger 3 out of 5 stars.[36]

Jahanavi Samant of Mid-Day gave the film the same rating and criticized its tone as being inconsistent, with "Ek Tha Tiger [being] unable to decide whether it is spy action or a love saga".[37] Ronnie Scheib of Variety gave a positive review, praising the performances of the leads and film's production aesthetic, noting "Kaif impresses in her action-heroine debut, while Salman Khan's thinking-on-his-feet immediacy adds depth to his usual macho muscle. Local audiences will no doubt derive a special thrill from the onscreen reunion of stars Khan and Kaif, [with] Aseem Mishra's gorgeous location lensing".[38]

Tiger Zinda Hai (2017)[edit]

Main article: Tiger Zinda Hai

Tiger Zinda Hai opened to mostly positive reviews.[39] Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama gave 4.5 stars, and said "Salman is the lifeline, the real treasure of Tiger Zinda Hai. He sinks his teeth into the character and, in several sequences, peels off the mask of super-stardom and brings the actor to the fore. Katrina is in solid form, in action sequences specifically commands attention."[citation needed] Umesh Punwani of Koimoi gave 4 stars, and said "Katrina Kaif is brilliant! She has very few dialogues, and no, that's not the reason she's good. Working amazingly well with her expressions, she has turned into an athlete for this one. Performing a few major action sequences, she is flawless."[40][41]

Lasyapriya Sundaram of The Times of India gave 3.5 stars, and said "The film is visually stunning in parts and Salman Khan plays Tiger with roaring confidence and dialogues packed with punch. Of course, his fans get a true-blue Salman Khan moment when he bares his torso."[42] Rachit Gupta of Filmfare gave 3.5 stars, and said "It may look like a Hollywood action thriller, but at its heart, Tiger Zinda Hai is an unabashed masala movie. The heady mixture of an international looking action film and the regular tropes of Hindi cinema make it a pleasing watch."[43]

War (2019)[edit]

Main article: War (2019 film)

Anupama Chopra said "War is a popcorn entertainer and you can't ask too many questions but if you're willing to suspend disbelief, the twists and turns exert a solid grip."[citation needed] A writer for Bollywood Hungama gave the film 4 stars, and said "War is an action entertainer which has style as well as enough twists and turns to keep the viewers engrossed. At the box office, the extended weekend, dazzling action, stunning international locales and stylish execution will ensure mammoth footfalls for the film".[citation needed] Taran Adarsh gave it four stars out of five and called the film "[e]scapist cinema at its best".[44]

Komal Nahta of Film Information opined, "The film could prove to be the starting of a new franchise for the Yash Raj Films banner".[45] Writing for India TV, Sonal gave the film 3.5 stars, writing, "Hrithik Roshan, Tiger Shroff of Abbas-Mustan kinda twists, turns, characters, situations, logic, gravity, physics, chemistry, and some Ekta Kapoor-esque tricks all tossed together to make a visually spectacular concoction".[46]The Times of India rated it three stars out of five and felt the film had "lot of style, stunts and show, but lacking a solid storyline".[47]

Pathaan (2023)[edit]

Main article: Pathaan (film)

Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama rated the film 4.5 out of 5 stars and termed the film "complete entertainer replete with action, emotions, patriotism, humour, thrill, and of course, the star power of Shah Rukh Khan."[48] Sukanya Verma of Rediff gave the film a rating of 4 out of 5 stars and wrote "Shah Rukh Khan's weathered intensity, grizzly charisma and trademark wit lends Pathaan's all-out, devil-may-care antics a sense of purpose that evades mindless acts of mayhem".[49] Devesh Sharma of Filmfare rated the film 4 out of 5 stars and stated that the film is a "visual spectacle" and termed action choreography is "truly out of this world".[50] Saibal Chatterjee of NDTV rated the film 3.5 out of 5 and said that the film swings and strikes with all the "style" and "aplomb" in the world.[51]

Renuka Vyavahare of The Times of India rated the film 3.5 out of 5 stars and wrote "Pathaan has all the ingredients of a masala potboiler — slowmo entries, iconic battle of good versus bad and most importantly a sexy-smouldering Shah Rukh Khan, who can fight the good fight on and off the screen".[52] Himesh Mankad of Pinkvilla gave the film a rating of 3.5 out of 5 and termed it as "tentpole event film" which has right amount of action, thrill, emotion and drama.[53]

Graphic novels[edit]

  • A graphic novel titled Ek Tha Tiger: Mahasagar Ki Suraksha (English: Ek Tha Tiger: Saving The High Seas) was published in 2012 by Yomics. Post release, the comic failed to generate a positive word-of-mouth. Joginder Tuteja of Bollywood Hungama commended the comics' design but said that the main story failed to meet his expectations of a deeper plot, exciting narrative and a tighter script.[54]
  • Another graphic novel named Ek Tha Tiger: Caught In The Web has been published in 2012 by Yomics, which also features some Hum Tum characters.[55]

Games[edit]

  • An Android game base on the 2012 film has been released on the same year.[56][57]
  • Another game based on the 2012 film has been released on the same year, which is a Windows version game published by skf.[58]
