For the unaware, Brigadier Bulsara spearheaded Operation Cactus in 1988, a crucial military intervention in the Maldives. During this operation, he led the Indian Armed Forces to support the Maldivian authorities in reclaiming control of the nation. The intervention became necessary following a coup attempt led by businessman Abdullah Luthufi, supported by armed mercenaries from a Sri Lankan Tamil secessionist group known as the People's Liberation Organisation of Tamil Eelam (PLOTE).

Salman Khan was last seen in Tiger 3 alongside Katrina Kaif and Emraan Hashmi. The film has crossed the Rs 450 crore mark at the box office.
