To compare YRF spy verse or dhoom series, the better comparison is a Mission Impossible series or a Fast and furious series, where the movie businesses solely depended on the stars of the movies followed by the quality, the stars or the makers are in constant pressure to churn out a better movie than the prequel, hence these action franchises are now more than a billion dollar assets, now let us come back to Dhoom series, yes money wise D3 did earn the most, but is there any curiosity or desire left in the audience for a Dhoom 4, unless they revive it in a better way? Aamir Khan brought the collections, but the movie itself sucked being a shameless copy of a Nolan movie, where the series was supposed to be about cool duded who are criminals isnt it?
Now Spy verse is bigger tha Dhoom series, given SRK, Salman and Hrithik lead the series, so the amount of money they are putting in the individual movies, if they put 50 percent of creativity, then maybe Tiger 3 would not underperform. YRF botched a movied which had Salman, Katrina, Emraan Hashmi and cameos from SRK and HR too, if that is not their responsiblity then I do not know how we justify this? I agree Pathan would not be a huge success had SRK not making a come back, so technically Pathaan's success did not do any good to it's follower Tiger 3, that means audience still do not care about the universe.
YRF should not scrap the idea, since War 2 is happening, the movie's success will tell what happens next, but I think to make a universe with such huge star factor, they did a good strategy instead of just giving uncapable directors or writers these movies and also the actors should see themselves and put effort, sleep walking in a movie like this big means the leads do not care much, which is the case of Salman in most of his movies these days.
