Salman Khan starrer Sikandar was released in theatres on March 30, 2025. The action thriller received a mixed review from the critics and audience. It is Salman’s Eid release after 2 years. Directed by AR Murugadoss, the film also stars Rashmika Mandanna, Sathyaraj, Randeep Hooda and Prateik Babbar in pivotal roles.
On its opening day, Sikandar made a collection of approximately Rs 26 crore in India. On Monday, during Eid, the Salman Khan starrer witnessed a slight increase in its box office collections. The day 2 collection of Salman and Rashmika’s film was Rs 29 crore in India.
In two days, the mass actioner has earned Rs 55 crore at the box office. The movie was released in 5,500 screens in India. The worldwide collection of the movie ranges between 10-15 crore; this has taken the collection over Rs 60 crore so far. So compared to the wide release it had, the numbers are not up to the mark. But Sikandar has managed to surpass Vicky Kaushal’s Chhaava’s collection of the first Monday.
Vicky’s historical period drama had earned Rs 24 crore on its first Monday. With Salman’s film reaching Rs 55 crore on its first Monday, it makes it the only 2025 film with the highest first Monday in Bollywood. However, Salman’s films in the past have earned a lot better than his latest Eid release.
When the movie was released, it didn’t have a good response on social media. A lot of Salman Khan fans were quite disappointed with the weak story, poor acting and outdated CGI. It would be interesting to see how the film performs in the coming days.
After Sikandar, Salman will be next seen in Kick 2, directed by Sajid Nadiadwala. It is a sequel to his 2014 film Kick, and the superstar returns as the beloved character ‘Devil’ in the action thriller.
