Why is Yash Raj Films not enthusiastic about making 'Tiger 4'?

These days, when the discussion is about the controversy over Aamir Khan's son Junaid Khan's OTT film 'Maharaj', people have forgotten to discuss another Yash Raj Films film 'Tiger 4' which is about to start. Salman Khan has been the hero of all the films of this series ('Ek Tha Tiger', 'Tiger Zinda Hai' and 'Tiger 3'). Now when the talk of sequels of Yash Raj Production's spy films 'War 2' and 'Pathan 2' comes up, at the same time the thought of making a sequel of 'Tiger 4' comes to mind, but it seems that now the discussion of this film has been put on hold.

These days, there is a lot of talk that Salman Khan has decided not to work in guest roles in the upcoming films 'War 2' and 'Pathan 2' of Yash Raj Films' spy universe. (Although this decision is not firm, the stars' views also change). The next news related to this is that Yash Raj Productions does not want to rush into giving films of the Tiger series, or is not even thinking of making the film. That is, work on 'Tiger 4' will not start now. Why is this so? Let's talk about this why first.

YRF banner has given 5 films in the framework of spy space - 'Ek Tha Tiger', 'War', 'Tiger Zinda Hai', 'Pathan', and 'Tiger 3'. Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif were the main stars in all three films of the Tiger series. 'War' was made with Hrithik Roshan and the biggest successful film of this spy space was Shah Rukh Khan- Deepika Padukone starrer 'Pathan'. Now, news has started coming about two films 'War 2' and 'Pathan 2' made in the same framework as Yash Raj. The thing to notice in these films is that all three male stars have shown their glimpse into each other's film in guest roles. There was a special discussion when the audience saw Salman Khan in Tiger's getup in the film 'Pathan' and Shah Rukh Khan in Pathan's getup in the film 'Tiger 3' supporting each other by entering in a special dangerous scene. The audience liked the way two warrior Indian spies were seen helping each other in difficult times on foreign soil. Among them, people praised Salman Khan's entry as Tiger in Shah Rukh's film 'Pathan'. It is said that the matter got spoiled because of the praise.

These days, the morale of Shahrukh Khan's camp is at its peak. After 'Pathan', 'Jawaan', and 'Dunki', his success in IPL has created records of earnings. On the other hand, Salman Khan's enthusiasm is believed to have diminished. Salman Khan's film 'Tiger 3' has given less business than expected. Critics associated with Shahrukh Khan's camp believe that the film 'Tiger 3' has barely recovered its cost, while there are some critics who are calling the film a hit by the reputation of Yash Raj. It is also being said that the film started to collapse in the fourth week itself. And, this is the thing that is the reason for Salman's trouble. Salman's supporters believe that 'Pathan' was ridiculed in the beginning. The audience got angry over Deepika's Kesariya Rang song. Then Salman appealed to watch the film and Salman's strong entry made Pathan a success.

Salman Khan to Avoid Cameos; YRF Delays 'Tiger 4' Release

Now that the slow pace of 'Tiger 3' has come up, people believe that the special entry ate up all the charm of Tiger and made the entire 'Tiger 3' sluggish. This has warned Salman Khan to avoid doing cameo roles. Yash Raj Productions has kept Salman in special roles for both its upcoming spy films 'War 2' and 'Pathan 2'. But, Yash Raj has also agreed with Salman's thinking that he should not do a cameo role because after seeing Salman in a cameo role, 'Tiger 4' will not have that charm. However, this is their immediate decision. Yash Raj Films (YRF) has gone a step ahead and decided to delay its upcoming 'Tiger 4' as well.

On top of that, the controversy over the Yash Raj banner's film 'Maharaj', made with Junaid Khan, has forced Aditya Chopra to think about which project to move forward with and which to delay. Hence, it is understood that there is uncertainty about 'Tiger 4'.
