Does anyone know about the Tizen platform is it a popular platform to target??
No it isn't since they have no devices. They may change at some point when its embed into smart TVs.
They have just launched the Tizen Z1 phone in India.

It's hard to see it being successful when the price is more than many budget Android phones, but we shall see. It's early days.
i think Tizen will grow this year to what Firefox OS is at the moment, very very small.
Develop games in your browser. Powerful, performant & highly capable.
I believe some of Samsung's smartwatches use Tizen, but I'm not sure about the app-development possibilities for those devices.
Wasn´t there a big money-giveaway about a year ago for every app that was developed for tizen?
