It
was
earlier
reported
that
Salman
Khan
and
Katrina
Kaif
were
supposed
to
head
off
to
Delhi
to
continue
shooting
for
the
remaining
portions
of
their
upcoming
film
Tiger
3.
The
espionage
flick
is
touted
to
be
one
of
the
most
awaited
films
of
the
year
and
the
Delhi
schedule
was
supposed
to
wrap
up
the
movie
reportedly.
However,
the
latest
development
suggests
that
due
to
the
increase
in
the
number
of
COVID-19
cases
in
the
country
again,
the
team
of
Tiger
3
has
decided
to
cancel
the
schedule.
According
to
a
news
report
in
Mid-Day,
Salman
Khan
and
Katrina
Kaif
was
supposed
to
shoot
for
Tiger
3
in
Delhi
this
month.
The
report
added
that
all
the
preparations
for
the
same
were
also
made
in
the
capital.
However,
with
the
COVID
cases
on
the
sudden
rise
and
the
possible
onset
of
the
third
wave,
the
makers
of
the
movie
including
producer
Aditya
Chopra
and
director
Maneesh
Sharma
have
decided
to
call
off
the
Delhi
schedule.
The
publication
also
quoted
a
trade
source
who
revealed
that
the
current
scenario
is
not
the
best
time
to
plan
big
outdoor
shooting
schedules
for
the
filmmakers.
The
source
said,
"It's
a
well-thought-out
decision
by
Adi,
Maneesh
and
the
team.
The
portions
in
question
will
be
shot
at
real
locations.
Since
the
Omicron
threat
is
looming,
the
makers
are
choosing
to
be
cautious.
While
[other]
challenging
schedules
were
completed
through
the
pandemic,
the
team
doesn't
want
to
take
any
unnecessary
risk
[now]."
The
source
went
on
to
say
that
the
January
schedule
of
Tiger
3
was
an
important
one
for
the
makers.
Salman
Khan
and
Katrina
Kaif
shooting
for
the
same
would
have
ensured
the
completion
of
the
movie.
This
has
also
made
it
dicey
whether
the
spy
flick
will
be
able
to
be
released
in
December
2022,
as
planned.
Earlier,
Salman
Khan
and
Katrina
Kaif
had
also
shot
for
the
movie
in
international
locations
like
Russia,
Turkey
and
Austria.
It
was
also
earlier
reported
that
the
superstar
will
also
be
shooting
an
important
sequence
with
Emraan
Hashmi
in
Mumbai
who
plays
the
main
antagonist
in
the
film.
The
reports
added
that
Salman
is
leaving
no
stone
unturned
to
make
the
environment
safe
for
the
shoot.
