Based on the clues available, Shenoy locates Tiger and Zoya in the snowy area of [[Innsbruck]]. Several days later, Tiger is briefed by Shenoy, who informs him about the abduction of the nurses. However, Shenoy only tells Tiger about the 25 Indian nurses held in Iraq. Though Tiger is reluctant at first, he sets to carry the mission after Zoya's insistence.

<!--per [[WP:FILMPLOT]], plot summaries should be between 400 and 700 words-->
In [[Iraq]], an American journalist is killed by the ISC, a terrorist organization, while attempting to report their recent activities to the [[CIA]]. During a rally in [[Tikrit]], their leader, Abu Usman, is shot by the [[Iraqi Army]] and is taken to the local hospital, which also serves as a training center for [[Foreign hostages in Iraq#India|Indian and Pakistani nurses]]. Usman orders a heightened ISC presence around him for security, causing the CIA to prepare an airstrike on the hospital. During this, Maria, an Indian nurse, secretly calls the Indian Ambassador to Iraq and informs him about Indian and Pakistani nurses being held hostage; the CIA tells [[Research and Analysis Wing|RAW]] chief Shenoy that he has seven days to rescue the nurses before the airstrike is ordered.


Tiger travels to [[Syria]] and assembles his own gang of RAW members consisting of Azaan, an expert [[sniper]], Namit, an experienced [[bomb disposal|bomb disposer]] and Rakesh, a [[hacker]]. They reach an oil refinery controlled by Al-Amir Baghdawi ([[Sal Yusuf]]), ISC's second-in-command, but face difficulty after the arrival of Firdauz aka 'Tohbaan' ('snake' in [[Arabic]]), who checks the workers. One day, Tiger rescues Hassan (Jineet Rath), a child who is sent by Usman as a [[Suicide Bomber|human bomb]]. That night, Tiger and his gang set a [[controlled explosion]] in the refinery and pretend to get burned so that they are taken to the hospital.
Former spies{{refn|group=N|As depicted at the ending of ''[[Ek Tha Tiger]]'' (2012).}} Avinash Singh "Tiger" Rathore and Zoya Humaini-Rathore, now married with a son, live in hiding in [[Innsbruck]]. Shenoy and Karan Rao, a RAW agent, locate and inform Tiger and Zoya of the hostages; despite initial reluctance, Tiger accepts after Zoya's insistence. Tiger goes to Syria with his select team of RAW agents: Azaan, an expert [[sniper]], Namit, a [[bomb disposal]] expert, and Rakesh, a [[hacker]]. They travel to Iraq posing as illegal migrant workers for an oil refinery run by Tohbaan, an Indian sympathizer to the ISC, and Amir Baghdawi, Usman's second-in-command. Tiger then meets Pawan, his handler, in Tikrit to gather supplies, however, they are forced to rescue Hassan, a child [[suicide bomber]] sent by Usman.


En route, they are joined by ISI members Captain Abrar and Captain Javed. Zoya also comes along with Abrar and Javed and reveals to Tiger that along with 25 Indian nurses, 15 Pakistani nurses are held, hostage. Tiger then declares that ISI and RAW will work together to rescue the nurses. Meanwhile, Firdauz reveals that he is a secret RAW agent. They go to the hospital while Zoya leaves Tiger to first kill Baghdavi and his troops which she does with the help of some [[Syrians|Syrian girls]].
Pawan is shot by the ISC in the ensuing fallout and Tiger narrowly escapes with the unexpected arrival of Zoya. The couple decides that ISI and RAW should work together to save the nurses. Later that night, Tiger and his team set a [[controlled explosion]] in the refinery and fake burns so they are taken to the hospital. Tiger gets Tohbaan to reveal he is actually Firdaus, an undercover RAW agent tasked by Shenoy to spy on Tiger and his team. Tiger and Zoya agree to simultaneous, coordinated attacks against the ISC. Zoya goes undercover and is eventually recruited by Baghdawi, who keeps female slaves. On the day of the airstrike, she manages to kill Baghdawi. At the hospital, Rakesh poisons food the migrant workers are tasked to cook for the ISC.


At the hospital, Rakesh poisons the food. On the day of the airstrike, Usman's troops are [[food poisoning|food poisoned]]. Tiger fights the troops but finds Usman with Zoya, which causes him to surrender. Tiger is tortured in a [[gas chamber]] but later escapes and rescues the nurses. Azaan dies during the fight. As they escape, Firdauz and Karan, who is also a RAW member and Shenoy's most trusted person, crashes an oil tanker which kills ISC members.
Tiger's crew eventually succeeds in eliminating the majority of the ISC armies, but Azaan dies in the conflict. Tiger finds Zoya captured by Usman in the boiler room and surrenders. Tiger is initially tortured but stabs Usman (who manages to escape) and tries to free Zoya while the nurses are rescued by RAW and ISI. Firdaus eventually kills Usman as the hospital is blown up in the American airstrike. A year later, on [[Independence Day (India)|15 August]], Shenoy is called by Tiger from [[Greece]]. Having adopted Hassan, Tiger informs him his family has returned to hiding, knowing that RAW and ISI would not leave them in peace. However, he assures Shenoy that he will be there for his country if they need him.


Tiger stabs and wounds Usman along with Sayem Noman in a fierce encounter and moves to rescue Zoya, who insists Tiger leave her for the sake of Junior. A missile, launched by American drones, blows the chamber. Tiger dresses everyone in the execution robes for a safe passage out of Ikrit. Javed raises Indian and Pakistani flags above the bus with the nurses keeping Azaan's promise while Firdauz takes Usman to a desert and shoots him.

One year later, Shenoy is called by Tiger from [[Greece]]. A flashback shows that Tiger broke the chain and rescued Zoya and escaped, knowing that RAW and ISI wouldn't leave them if they returned with the nurses. It's revealed that Tiger and Zoya have adopted Hassan. Though Tiger goes into hiding once again, he assures Shenoy that he will always be there for his country.

A sequel was conceived following the success of the Ek Tha Tiger, but faced a number of delays after the writer and director of the first film, Kabir Khan, refused to return for a sequel; Zafar was subsequently hired to write and direct, and the film's story draws inspiration from the 2014 abduction of Indian nurses by ISIL.[8] By 2016, pre-production had begun on the film, and filming concluded by 2017, with filming locations including Abu Dhabi, Austria, Greece, and Morocco.[9] With a budget of 150 crore (US$23.03 million)[2][3] it was one of the most expensive Hindi films ever made at time of its release.

Tiger Zinda Hai was theatrically released worldwide by Yash Raj Films on 22 December 2017. It received generally positive reviews from critics for its action sequences and cast performances.[10][11] Like its predecessor, it set numerous box-office records during its theatrical run, grossing over 600.1 crore (US$92.15 million) worldwide,[12] becoming the 14th highest-grossing Indian film. It also set the record for highest opening weekend for a Hindi-language film, with 114 crore (US$17.51 million). At the 63rd Filmfare Awards, Tiger Zinda Hai won for Best Action.[13] The third installment in the franchise, Tiger 3 is slated to release on Diwali 2023.

Plot[edit]

In Iraq, an American journalist is killed by the ISC, a terrorist organization, while attempting to report their recent activities to the CIA. During a rally in Tikrit, their leader, Abu Usman, is shot by the Iraqi Army and is taken to the local hospital, which also serves as a training center for Indian and Pakistani nurses. Usman orders a heightened ISC presence around him for security, causing the CIA to prepare an airstrike on the hospital. During this, Maria, an Indian nurse, secretly calls the Indian Ambassador to Iraq and informs him about Indian and Pakistani nurses being held hostage; the CIA tells RAW chief Shenoy that he has seven days to rescue the nurses before the airstrike is ordered.

Former spies[N 1] Avinash Singh "Tiger" Rathore and Zoya Humaini-Rathore, now married with a son, live in hiding in Innsbruck. Shenoy and Karan Rao, a RAW agent, locate and inform Tiger and Zoya of the hostages; despite initial reluctance, Tiger accepts after Zoya's insistence. Tiger goes to Syria with his select team of RAW agents: Azaan, an expert sniper, Namit, a bomb disposal expert, and Rakesh, a hacker. They travel to Iraq posing as illegal migrant workers for an oil refinery run by Tohbaan, an Indian sympathizer to the ISC, and Amir Baghdawi, Usman's second-in-command. Tiger then meets Pawan, his handler, in Tikrit to gather supplies, however, they are forced to rescue Hassan, a child suicide bomber sent by Usman.

Pawan is shot by the ISC in the ensuing fallout and Tiger narrowly escapes with the unexpected arrival of Zoya. The couple decides that ISI and RAW should work together to save the nurses. Later that night, Tiger and his team set a controlled explosion in the refinery and fake burns so they are taken to the hospital. Tiger gets Tohbaan to reveal he is actually Firdaus, an undercover RAW agent tasked by Shenoy to spy on Tiger and his team. Tiger and Zoya agree to simultaneous, coordinated attacks against the ISC. Zoya goes undercover and is eventually recruited by Baghdawi, who keeps female slaves. On the day of the airstrike, she manages to kill Baghdawi. At the hospital, Rakesh poisons food the migrant workers are tasked to cook for the ISC.

Tiger's crew eventually succeeds in eliminating the majority of the ISC armies, but Azaan dies in the conflict. Tiger finds Zoya captured by Usman in the boiler room and surrenders. Tiger is initially tortured but stabs Usman (who manages to escape) and tries to free Zoya while the nurses are rescued by RAW and ISI. Firdaus eventually kills Usman as the hospital is blown up in the American airstrike. A year later, on 15 August, Shenoy is called by Tiger from Greece. Having adopted Hassan, Tiger informs him his family has returned to hiding, knowing that RAW and ISI would not leave them in peace. However, he assures Shenoy that he will be there for his country if they need him.

Marketing and release[edit]

The film's trailer was released on 6 November 2017. Within 24 hours, it broke many records for Hindi film trailers on YouTube, with more than 29 million views, 480 thousand likes and 250 thousand shares.[21] On 11 November, it became the most liked film trailer on YouTube with 700 thousand likes, surpassing Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015) then.[22] The record was later surpassed by the trailer of Avengers: Infinity War (2018) with about 2 million likes.[23]

The film was released on 22 December 2017 worldwide. The film received a U/A certificate from Central Board of Film Certification.[24] Despite having a song featuring Pakistani singer Atif Aslam, the film has not been given No-Objection Certificate by Central Board of Film Censors in Pakistan, stating the reason as was said for Ek Tha Tiger that "The image of Pakistan and its law enforcement agencies" have been compromised.[25][26]

Tiger Zinda Hai was in controversy on its release and faced protests from the Valmiki community,[27] when Salman Khan allegedly made a casteist slur, where he compared his dancing skills to a sanitation worker, "or "bhangi" in a dance show. Shilpa Shetty also laughed along with him, and said that she also looked like one.[28] Valmiki group is made up of a cluster of dalit communities — a few of whom are Bhangi, Mehtar, Chuhra, Lal Beghi and Halalkhor. Valmiki community filed a legal case against both actors for hurting their sentiments.[29]

Maharashtra Navnirman Sena also unsuccessfully protested urging Mumbai multiplexes to promote Marathi film Deva instead of Tiger Zinda Hai.[30] Their leaders raised issue about the loss of screens to Marathi films like Deva and Ek Atrangi which released alongside.[31]

Reception[edit]

Critical response[edit]

Tiger Zinda Hai opened to mostly positive reviews.[10] Template:Rotten Tomatoes prose 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."[32] 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."[33] Aarti Jhurani of The National gave 4 stars, and said, "While logic is not a very important factor in Khan's films, emotions certainly are, and the director made sure to hit all the soft spots – from patriotism to Indo-Pakistan bonding to a multitude of cheesy dialogues – which is a smart move, and sure to bring in both Indian and Pakistani audiences."[34] 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."[35] 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."[36]

Rohit Bhatnagar of Deccan Chronicle gave 3 stars and said, "Ali Abbas Zafar smoothly takes Ek Tha Tiger franchise ahead by telling a real story and inserting a whole lot of drama and thrill. The film also touches upon relationships between India and Pakistan but subtly. The biggest hiccup of the film is its length."[37] Rajeev Masand of News 18 gave 3 stars, and said "The film has some thrilling action, while logic and subtlety are sacrificed at the altar of spectacle and sentiment. Katrina gets some terrific action moments, and she executes them well, but make no mistake, the heavy lifting here is left to Salman Khan, and he's clearly up for the challenge."[38] Richa Barua of Asianet News gave the film a rating of 4.5 stars, and states that the film "keeps you glued to the seats."[39]

Raja Sen of NDTV India gave 2.5 stars, and said "Tiger Zinda Hai breaks for intermission at a point when most self-respecting action films would have rushed into the climax. Long before the finish eventually rolled around, I found myself wishing Tiger would croak just so I could make it out alive."[40] Rohit Vats of Hindustan Times gave 2.5 stars, and said, "It's better for the filmmakers to set a character trajectory that matches the star's current image rather than basking in the glory of the past."[41] Anna M. M. Vetticad of Firstpost gave 2.5 stars, stating that both Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif delivered fun with equal parts swag, silliness and schmaltz.[42] Shubhra Gupta of Indian Express gave 2.5 stars, and said "Only once in a while, the film gives in and provides us with a killing which sobers us up, but very quickly it's back to the base, with Bhai taking over, and everyone including Nurse Poorna and Zoya making way for him. But you can see she enjoys kicking butt: you wish she had more to do."[43] Anupama Chopra of Film Companion wrote, "Tiger Zinda Hai is fun in bits and spurts, but there isn’t enough buoyancy to make it a slam dunk."[44]
