The magic of Türkiye unfolded on the big screen as the Türkiye Tourism Promotion & Development Agency, in collaboration with Türkiye Culture & Tourism Office in New Delhi, recently hosted exclusive screenings of the blockbuster film, Tiger 3. The event, held at PVR Director’s Cut in Ambience Mall, Vasant Kunj, Delhi, and PVR BKC in Mumbai, was a glamorous affair attended by over 130 esteemed guests, including prominent travel agents, influencers, and dignitaries from both cities.
The film, shot against the breathtaking backdrops of Istanbul, Antalya, and Cappadocia, showcased Türkiye’s grandeur to a global audience. The soirée drew the presence of delegates from Türkiye, including Cuneyt Yavuzcan, Consulate General of Türkiye in Mumbai, and Türkiye’s Ambassador to India, H.E. Mr. Firat Sunel in Delhi. Following the screenings, guests were treated to insightful presentations on Türkiye’s rich cultural history, tourism attractions, and its growing popularity among Indians, all accompanied by a delightful cocktail reception.
Adding a melodic touch to the celebration, the event featured the music video of “Leke Prabhu Ka Naam” from Tiger 3. Set against the mesmerizing backdrop of Cappadocia, Türkiye, the video captured lead actors Salman Khan (Tiger) and Katrina Kaif (Zoya) dancing amidst hot air balloons, Fairy Chimneys, and picturesque restaurants in Goreme. This musical interlude beautifully encapsulated the film's essence and Türkiye’s enchanting landscapes, creating a sensory delight for the audience.
Expressing gratitude for the overwhelming response, the Türkiye Tourism Authority remarked, “We express heartfelt gratitude to our esteemed guests for gracing this extraordinary celebration of Türkiye, showcased through the lens of Tiger 3. The exceptional response witnessed at these events towards our nation is a true reflection of the strong ties between India and Türkiye. The triumph of these events is also a reminder of the power of cultural exchange in fostering understanding and unity between our two countries. We look forward to continued collaborations that will further deepen the connection between the vibrance of Indian cinema and the enchanting landscapes of Türkiye.”
Türkiye has a rich legacy of being the ideal shoot location for Indian blockbusters like Race 2, Dil Dhadakne Do, and Ek Tha Tiger. Building on this, prominent Indian production houses are gearing up to film in Türkiye in 2024, marking a new chapter in the enduring partnership between the two nations.

Wyndham Hotels & Resorts reported its Q3 2025 financial results, showing steady growth across operations and financial metrics. Global system-wide rooms increased 4% year-on-year to 855,400, including 503,400 in the U.S. and 352,000 internationally, while the company awarded 204 new development contracts, up 24% from Q3 2024. The global development pipeline grew 4% to 257,000 rooms, with roughly 70% in midscale and above segments and 58% internationally.
Ancillary revenues rose 18% compared to the same period last year. Net income climbed 3% to $105 million, and adjusted net income reached $112 million, with diluted EPS increasing 5% to $1.36 and adjusted diluted EPS up 5% to $1.46. Adjusted EBITDA grew 2% to $213 million, while global RevPAR declined 5% in constant currency, mainly due to softer results in Asia Pacific and Latin America, partially offset by gains in EMEA and Canada.
Wyndham generated $86 million in net cash from operating activities and $97 million in free cash flow, ending the quarter with $70 million in cash and total liquidity of about $540 million, maintaining a net debt leverage ratio of 3.5x. In October 2025, the company refinanced its $750 million revolving credit facility, extending maturity to 2030, increasing capacity to $1 billion, and reducing borrowing costs by 35 basis points. Shareholder returns included the repurchase of 830,000 shares for $70 million in Q3 and year-to-date buybacks of 2.5 million shares for $223 million, alongside $31 million in dividends.
Looking ahead, Wyndham expects full-year global room growth of 4–4.6%, global RevPAR change of -3% to -2%, fee-related revenues of $1.43–$1.45 billion, adjusted EBITDA of $715–$725 million, adjusted net income of $347–$358 million, and adjusted diluted EPS of $4.48–$4.62, while maintaining a focus on portfolio expansion, strengthening its development pipeline, and delivering consistent shareholder value amid evolving industry conditions.

Alaska Air Group reported strong financial results for the third quarter of 2025, posting a GAAP net income of $73 million and adjusted earnings per share of $1.05. The airline’s growth is being fueled by new nonstop routes from Seattle to London and Reykjavik, set to launch in May 2026, and the introduction of the Atmos Rewards loyalty program, which exceeded premium credit card sign-up expectations.
In a major technological upgrade, Alaska Air is installing Starlink high-speed Wi-Fi across its fleet, offering complimentary access to Atmos Rewards members. The company is also progressing with the integration of Hawaiian Airlines and advancing its Alaska Accelerate strategy, aiming for significant growth and profitability by 2027.
