Shah Rukh Khan broke all the records this year with ‘Pathaan‘ and then later ‘Jawan‘ which set a new benchmark all together. It indeed was SRK’s year with three releases. He ended 2023 with ‘Dunki’ but the film didn’t live up to expectations that were set his previous two releases. Meanwhile, another biggie which came in 2023 was Salman Khan starrer ‘Tiger 3’. The film was a big Diwali release and fans were waiting for Katrina Kaif and Salman to re-unite on screen.While ‘Tiger 3’ did good business at the box office, it didn’t match up to ‘Pathaan’, ‘Jawan’, ‘Gadar 2’. However, cinegoers felt it was quite a good film.
Now ‘Kaante’ director Sanjay Gupta is of the opinion that things would have been different for ‘Tiger 3’ had it released before ‘Jawan’. The director took to X (formerly Twitter) and wrote, ““I strongly feel that had TIGER 3 come before JAWAN things would have been different. It’s just that Atlee set a whole new benchmark with every scene he shot.”
‘Tiger 3’ had made Rs 450 crore at the box office worldwide after its release. Meanwhile, both ‘Jawan’ and ‘Pathaan’ have crossed Rs 1000 crore worldwide gross. ‘Jawan’ was directed by Atlee and was the highest grossing Indian movie of 2023. Meanwhile ‘Tiger 3’ was helmed by Maneesh Sharma. The Salman-Katrina starrer which also stars Emraan Hashmi has now begun streaming on OTT.

‘Jawan’ also starred Nayanthara, Vijay Sethupathi, Sanya Malhotra among others. The film had Deepika Padukone and Sanjay Dutt in cameos. Fans loved to see SRK-DP’s chemistry which was one of the major highlights of the movie, despite the fact that Deepika was just seen in a cameo.
With these three releases, SRK had a fantastic 2023. In an interview with a portal from Dubai, SRK had said that he is set to begin shooting his next movie from March/April 2024. While he didn’t confirm the film he’s going to shoot for, reportedly, he’ll be starting with Sujoy Ghosh’s next which sees him alongside daughter Suhana Khan.
