Policymakers are watching closely a news: if Salman Khan and his family are not invited to the wedding of Katrina Kaif and Vicky “Not Just Donor” Kaushal scheduled for next week. There is no reason not to believe Khan’s sister, Arpita, who said the Khans had not received an invitation. So what should policymakers – who have always argued in these times of post-non-aligned movement not to sever diplomatic relations with entities with “special friend status” that have become simple entities – now? ? Make an effort behind the scenes to reach out to the Kaushal family, asking them to send a last minute invitation to – or better yet, meet – Matriarch Khan, Helen, and ask for her (and her) blessing. from anyone else)?

A wedding invitation list is, of course, the prerogative of the families of the bride and groom. But, in this case, a bigger problem is at stake – Tiger 3, slated for release in December 2022. To keep Tiger and Zoya’s adventures going with much-needed box office vigor in these times of a pandemic for Bollywood, their off-screen characters cannot have the “ex-es katti”. Or, will good policy actually be to let Sallu-bhai’s non-invitation to Katrina ki shaadi continue, thus creating a tension that only “Tiger aur Zoya (ka connection) zinda hain” can release? Watch this place.
