With his involvement in the popular Salman Khan film Tiger 3, Emraan Hashmi has lately entered the YRF Spy Universe. As the film continues to do well at the box office, Emraan addressed questions about being part of a star-studded ensemble that included Katrina Kaif, Shah Rukh Khan, and Hrithik Roshan in a recent interview. He admitted that he never felt uneasy about his role in the film, although he did ponder turning it down when it was first given to him.
Emraan Hashmi confessed to Siddharth Kannan on his YouTube channel that he first considered declining the chance to be a part of Tiger 3, considering the existing brand with Salman Khan as Tiger. However, after reading the screenplay, all reservations vanished.
Although Emraan briefly pondered refusing the job after learning that he would be playing the antagonist in Tiger, he quickly welcomed the chance. The writing, particularly the representation of the character Aatish, piqued his interest, helping him understand the role's distinct and intriguing nature.
"There was never a time when I worried about not getting my turn in the sun." "Aditya Chopra told me that we will reveal you when the time is right," he said. The actor also stated that the choice not to overtly publicize his presence throughout the film's development was deliberate in order to maintain an air of mystery surrounding his role.
Tiger 3 is the fifth episode in the YRF Spy Universe, weaving into the broader storyline created by Tiger Zinda Hai, War, and Pathaan. Avinash Singh Rathore, or Tiger, is a RAW agent on a high-stakes operation to clear his name of treason allegations. The story thickens as he wrestles with the plot's complexity.
Emraan Hashmi has joined the YRF Spy Universe with the Salman Khan-starrer Tiger 3. In a recent interview, Emraan revealed that he was never "insecure of not getting my place in the sun" in the star-studded picture, which also stars Katrina Kaif, Shah Rukh Khan, and Hrithik Roshan. He did, however, consider declining the role when it was first given to him.
