That the box office belongs to Salman Khan during Eid is an open secret. However, his latest Tiger Zinda Hai is slated to release during Christmas 2017. As if taking a cue, the makers of the Sanjay Dutt biopic have decided to push their release date to March 2018.

“This biopic is one of the most awaited films in recent times. We have to release it at a time when it can garner maximum eyeballs. We know Salman has a huge fan following, so it only made business sense to avoid the on-screen clash,” revealed a source.

However, there has been no official announcement about the date-shift from the production houses of Rajkumar Hirani or Vidhu Vinod Chopra. We just hope both films do stupendously well and get the cash registers ringing.
