Tiger 3 starring Salman Khan, Katrina Kaif, and Emraan Hashmi was released in November 2023. The film was a commercial success. Kaif played the role of Zoya and received a lot of praise. 

During the press conference, one of the media personnel asked the actress what it’s like to play a “nuanced character,” as opposed to “just a glamour role” that she did in her last film, Maneesh Sharma’s 2023 spy thriller Tiger 3.

To this Katrina replied, “I see things a little different perhaps. I actually think the character of Zoya is one of the strongest characters I’ve ever had the chance to play. Especially in Tiger 3, it was so nuanced and so well-written by Maneesh Sharma. I thoroughly enjoyed being able to play that character.”
