For the longest time there have been reports in the media that Emraan Hashmi has been roped in to play the main antagonist in Salman Khan-Katrina Kaif's Tiger 3.

Recently when the actor teased fans with his bulked up pictures from the film, there was a strong buzz that this is a part of his character prep for his role in this espionage thriller. It was even speculated that Mumbai Saga star has already started shooting for Tiger 3.
