Despite high expectations and a festive launch, Sikandar fails to sustain momentum, barely scraping past ₹100 crore as collections crash in Week 3.
April 15, 2025: Salman Khan’s Sikandar, which was expected to mark a grand box office comeback for the superstar this Eid, is now gasping for air at the ticket counters. On its 16th day (third Monday), the action-packed film managed to earn just ₹26 lakh, bringing its total domestic collection to ₹109.36 crore, according to early estimates by Sacnilk.
Despite a strong opening day of ₹26 crore and a ₹29 crore haul on Day 2, Sikandar has witnessed a sharp and steady decline in footfalls, with the third week showing clear signs of exhaustion. The underperformance is even more glaring given the absence of significant competition in its first week and the festive timing.

Despite crossing the ₹100 crore mark, the film’s sharp decline in earnings has put its long-term theatrical prospects in doubt. Trade analysts predict that the release of Kesari: Chapter 2 on April 18 could seal the fate of Sikandar, pushing it out of most screens.
With mixed reviews and underwhelming word-of-mouth, Sikandar now joins the list of Salman Khan releases that failed to capitalize on a promising start.
