A Zoya spin off film cannot be complete without her Tiger. Superstar Salman Khan says he is totally game for Katrina Kaif headlining a solo action film of her spy character Zoya, but with a slight addition– he will also join the movie.

In Yash Raj Films’ Tiger series, Salman features in the titular role as RAW agent, while Katrina plays Zoya, a Pakistani spy.

The two characters, first appeared in Kabir Khan’s 2011 film Ek Tha Tiger, are married and continue to fight for the country. Salman and Katrina are currently seen playing their fan favourite characters in Tiger 3.

During a press conference to talk about his latest Diwali release, Salman Khan was asked his thoughts about a spin off film featuring Zoya. The superstar said the film can be about Zoya but will definitely also feature his character Tiger.

“Ya why not. But I think Zoya would be very incomplete without Tiger. So, Tiger will have to be there and save the day in the climax.

Even if he is not there throughout the film, but there has to be a Tiger introduction, a telephone call (to him), a hook in the interval.

Then in the climax, when Zoya needs Tiger, he lands up there to make sure that together they accomplish the mission,” he said.

Salman said the two characters have now become inseparable. The superstar joked that he can come in a Zoya spin off film, but Katrina wouldn’t be so keen to do a limited screen-time role if tables were turned.

“Tiger and Zoya have become so synonymous that me without Zoya or Zoya without me will feel empty.

But if we tell the same thing to Zoya, that there will be her introduction, then she will come in the interval then a bit in the climax, woh jhel nahi payegi (she won’t be able to take it).

Woh apna role badate jayegi (She will keep increasing her role),” he added.

Directed by Maneesh Sharma, Tiger 3 also stars Emraan Hashmi. The movie has been an underperformer at the box office, minting Rs 264 crore at the domestic box office.

It failed to live up to the gigantic pre-release expectations and will likely take a big hit at the box office this Friday when Ranbir Kapoor’s Animal releases.
