Sikandar, starring Salman Khan and Rashmika Mandanna was one of the most highly anticipated releases of 2025. However, it seems that it has struggled to meet the expectation of the audience. The AR Murugadoss directed action thriller had generated decent amount of pre- release buzz. However, despite high expectations, the film’s opening day collection failed to match the standards set by Salman’s previous Eid blockbusters.
Box Office Collection Day 6
According to Sacnilk, Sikandar collected Rs. 26 crore on its first day but given Salman Khan’s track record of delivering massive Eid openings, the numbers appear underwhelming. On its second day Sikandar saw a slight growth in numbers and earned Rs.29 crores, on day 3 the film managed to earn Rs.17.81 crores and on fifth and sixth day the film collected Rs.5.7 crore and Rs 3.5 crore which brought its total collection to approx Rs.93 crore.
Star Cast
Apart from Salman Khan and Rashmika Mandanna, the film also features the talented Kajal Aggarwal, Prateik Babbar, Satyaraj, Kishore and Sharman Joshi. Directed by A.R. Murugadoss the film is expected to be a massive box office hit!
Bhaijaan’s Previous Eid Releases
Salman Khan has always ruled the Eid box office, with some of Bollywood’s biggest openers. His 2016 blockbuster Sultan opened with ₹36.54 crore and Tiger 3 (2023) raised the bar even further with a whopping ₹53.3 crore opening. For comparison, Sikandar’s ₹26 crore opening is well below that, indicating that the film might not be able to match the same level of success.
