Expectations Remain High

While Sikandar has witnessed a modest start, distributors remain optimistic. PVR INOX CEO Gautam Dutta called the film a “grand celebration,” citing its perfect mix of “action, emotion, and inspiring storytelling.” He added, “With Salman returning after a year and Rashmika riding high on hits like Pushpa 2 and Chhaava, we expect Sikandar to collect around ₹50 crore over its opening weekend.”
