The much-awaited action thriller film Tiger 3, starring Salman Khan, Katrina Kaif and Emraan Hashmi, has undergone a slight change in its run time, due to added scene of Hrithik Roshan as Kabir in the film. Here we bring details of Hrithik Roshan’s cameo scene in the film.
Hrithik Roshan shot for his cameo in Tiger 3 on November 4
It was earlier reported that only Pathaan will make an appearance in Tiger 3 and they will bring Kabir back in Spy Universe only in War 2. But few days back, the film’s buzz got a boost when it was reported that Hrithik Roshan’s character from War (2019), Kabir, will also be seen in Tiger 3. Now it has come to light that Kabir’s addition to Tiger 3 was planned last minute after makers realised the buzz is not living upto the expectations.
A source told Bollywood Hungama, “The scene was shot very recently, on Saturday, November 4, at Mumbai’s Yash Raj Studios. Hrithik Roshan seemed excited to be back in the Kabir zone and had a blast shooting the scene.”

The source further added, “Since the censor process was already completed on October 27, the producers, Yash Raj Films, had to once again request CBFC (Central Board of Film Certification) to pass the additional scene. The CBFC did so on November 6. The run time of Tiger 3 is now 156 minutes (2 hours 36 minutes), up from the earlier duration of 2 hours and 33 minutes.”
