Yash Raj Films’ romantic thriller, 'Ek tha Tiger', which was scheduled for a 1st June, 2012 release will now release in theatres worldwide on EID 2012.

Since Aamir Khan wanted to release his next film 'Dhuan', directed by Reema Kagti, on 1st June, he requested Salman Khan and Aditya Chopra to shift the release of 'Ek tha Tiger' to accommodate this release. Given the close relationship and mutual respect they share for one another, both Adi and Salman were happy to oblige and shift the release to Eid.

Directed by Kabir Khan and produced by Aditya Chopra, the film stars Salman Khan & Katrina Kaif in the lead roles.

The film is based on a story by Aditya Chopra and the screenplay and the dialogues have been written by Kabir Khan and Neelesh Misra. Aseem Mishra, who has worked with Kabir on New York, is the DOP. The music will be scored by Suhail Sen.

The film is being currently shot in Dublin from where it moves on to Turkey for its next schedule.
