Talking about the film, Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif definitely kept the audience at the edge of their seat as their terrific performance just blew our mind.
A sequel to the record-breaking blockbuster Ek Tha Tiger, Tiger Zinda Hai continues the story of super-spies Tiger (Salman Khan) and Zoya (Katrina Kaif) eight years later.
Thespian Girish Karnad, who plays Tiger's boss and mentor, brings Salman Khan's character back for a mission.
Tiger, who is living his retired life in Austria with wife Zoya (Pakistani undercover agent played by Katrina), enters the film fighting off a pack of wolves as he goes camping with his son.
The mission takes the couple to a section of Iraq occupied by terrorist group ISC, who have taken around 40 Indian and Pakistani nurses hostage. How Tiger fights the terrorists with Zoya is something one needs to watch out for.
