Tiger Zinda Hai (transl. 'Tiger is alive') is a 2017 Indian Hindi-language action thriller film written and directed by Ali Abbas Zafar from a story by himself and Neelesh Misra. A sequel to the 2012 film Ek Tha Tiger, it is the second instalment in the Tiger franchise, and stars Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif. In Tiger Zinda Hai, Tiger (Khan) and Zoya (Kaif), are forced to come out of retirement to save a group of hostages held by a militant terrorist organization in Iraq.
A sequel was conceived following the success of the Ek Tha Tiger, but faced a number of delays after the writer and director of the first film, Kabir Khan, refused to return for a sequel; Zafar was subsequently hired to write and direct, and the film's story draws inspiration from the 2014 abduction of Indian nurses by ISIL. By 2016, pre-production had begun on the film, and filming concluded by 2017, with filming locations including Abu Dhabi, Austria, Greece, and Morocco. Tiger Zinda Hai also features Sajjad Delafrooz, Angad Bedi, Kumud Mishra, Nawab Shah, Ivan Rodrigues, Girish Karnad and Paresh Rawal. With a budget of ₹210 crore, it is the one of the most expensive Hindi films, and one of the most expensive Indian films ever made.
Upon release, Tiger Zinda Hai received generally positive reviews, with praise for its action and Khan's performance, while there was criticism for its length and dialogue. The film has grossed over ₹565.1 crore, becoming one of the highest-grossing Indian films. It was the highest-grossing Indian film of 2017, and at the 63rd Filmfare Awards, won the Filmfare Award for Best Action. A sequel is currently in development.
