Surprise!! I’m truly grateful and honoured to be a part of Sikandar.”
‘Sikandar’ marks another exciting collaboration between Salman Khan and producer Sajid Nadiadwala, following their previous successful films ‘Kick’, ‘Judwaa’, and ‘Mujhse Shaadi Karogi’. Directed by A.R. Murugadoss, known for his high-octane action films, ‘Sikandar’ promises to be a cinematic treat for fans when it hits theaters on Eid 2025.
In addition to ‘Sikandar’, Salman Khan has several other projects lined up. He will be seen in the much-talked-about ‘Tiger Vs Pathaan’, directed by Aditya Chopra. This film is another highly anticipated addition to Salman’s impressive filmography.
Rashmika Mandanna, meanwhile, is busy with a string of exciting projects. She will reprise her role in ‘Pushpa 2: The Rule’, alongside Allu Arjun and Fahad Faasil. This sequel, produced by Mythri Movie Makers and Muttamsetty Media, is set for an August 15, 2024 release. Rashmika will also star in ‘Kubera’, featuring a stellar cast that includes Dhanush, Nagarjuna, and Jim Sarbh. ‘Kubera’ is scheduled to hit theaters on December 31 this year, adding to Rashmika’s rapidly growing filmography.
As the shooting for ‘Sikandar’ kicks off, fans can look forward to what promises to be an action-packed spectacle. The combination of Salman Khan’s star power and Rashmika Mandanna’s rising popularity, under the direction of A.R. Murugadoss and backed by Sajid Nadiadwala, ensures that ‘Sikandar’ is set to be one of the biggest releases in 2025.
