It's a happy new year for Salman, Katrina as 'Tiger Zinda Hai' crosses Rs 250 crore mark
Follow UsThe new year started on a positive note for Bollywood as Salman starrer "Tiger Zinda Hai" crossed the Rs 250 crore mark on December 31, 2017.
The action-thriller gave a much-needed relief to the Hindi film industry after the previous year saw some major, big-budget films flop at the box office.
"Tiger Zinda Hai" completed two successful weekends as director Ali Abbas Zafar's venture made its way past the Rs 250 cr milestone.
Film-trade analyst Taran Adarsh shared the news on his Twitter profile on the first day of the new year compiling the box-office figures of the film.
