The much-awaited teaser of Salman Khan’s upcoming film Sikandar was released on Saturday, packing all the punches of high-voltage action, combined with the inimitable style of the actor. It introduces Khan in all his larger-than-life persona, taking on the villains and promising an adrenaline-packed cinematic experience.
The teaser, which was scheduled to release on December 27, on Khan’s 59th birthday, was delayed due to the demise of former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh. It was rescheduled for 4:07 PM, and the fans were already drooling over it, as social media was filled with excitement.
Sikandar is special because it has brought Salman Khan and the producer Sajid Nadiadwala together again after Kick in 2014, which amassed an incredible ₹300 crore at the box office. With such a successful history, expectations are high for this new venture.
Helmed by AR Murugadoss, Sikandar boasts an ensemble star cast that includes Rashmika Mandanna, Sathyaraj, Prateik Babbar, Kajal Aggarwal, and Sharman Joshi. The much-anticipated movie will have a theatrical release during Eid 2025 and will mark the return of Khan to the coveted festival release calendar after a year or so.
In 2024, Salman Khan did not have a full-fledged release, though he was seen in cameo roles for Singham 3 and Baby John, thus keeping the momentum going for himself in the industry.
