December of 2017 will see two of the most awaited films of this year battle against each other. A Sanjay Leela Bhansali directed historical drama and one action-packed spy thriller featuring crowd puller Salman Khan, both in the race to make it as the highest grosser.

While Salman’s much-hyped film ‘Tubelight’ tanked at the box office, trade analysts expect ‘Tiger Zinda Hai’ to fare better.
Tiger Zinda Hai has Salman reprising his role as a RAW agent named Tiger with a Pakistani spy as his lover. Working with the tagline ‘This Christmas, there will be peace’, the movie is set to release at the end of December, unlike the epochal ‘Padmavati’ which will hit the screens early on, on 1st December.
The Deepika Padukone starrer ‘Padmavati’ has already got quite a fan following and with the recent news of the grand film being released in 3D, the expectations of it winning the pit against ‘Tiger Zinda Hai’ are even higher. Actor Shahid Kapoor, who is the male lead of the film, talked about ‘Padmavati’ in a recent chat as said that he “really [feels] it’s a film that everybody will be proud of because it celebrates India, our culture and what we stand for”. Bollywood is looking forward to ending the year with a mass vs class battle at the box office.
