Talking about Salman Khan, his latest Bollywood movie 'Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan' released in the theatres last week. After witnessing a good weekend, the movie is now seeing a drop in collections and it needs to be seen whether the Salman-starrer goes past the Rs 100 crore mark at the domestic box office.
'Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan' will face tough competition from 'Ponniyin Selvan 2' this week as the Mani Ratnam-directed magnum opus will be releasing in the cinemas this week.
Salman Khan will next be seen in 'Tiger 3' which is slated for a Diwali 2023 release. The movie will also star Katrina Kaif and Emraan Hashmi. Shah Rukh Khan is also expected to have a cameo in the Yash Raj Films production.
