SCOOP: Salman Khan’s Sikandar expected to go the Tiger 3 way; might release on Sunday, March 30

March is here and Salman Khan fans are an excited lot as the much-awaited film Sikandar will be out this month. The announcement video was unveiled a day after Salman Khan’s birthday, in December 2024, and it was unanimously loved. On February 27, the makers dropped the teaser which gave a brief idea about the film and its world. The teaser simply mentions that the film will be out on Eid 2025, without giving information about the exact date. It has led to speculations whether Sikandar would release on Friday, March 28 or a couple of days later. This is because Ramzan Eid is expected to fall on Monday, March 31.

SCOOP: Salman Khan’s Sikandar expected to go the Tiger 3 way; might release on Sunday, March 30

Bollywood Hungama has learned that Sikandar is expected to arrive in cinemas on Sunday, March 30. A source told us, “Releasing a film in the pre-Eid period, on March 28, will not be a wise decision as a section of the audience will keep away from cinemas. Hence, March 30 works best as it’s a Sunday. The collections in Maharashtra will see a boost as Gudi Padwa falls on the same day. The next day, Monday, it will be the Eid holiday and the celebrations will continue until a few more days in certain centres, leading to higher footfalls. This will be followed by the next weekend where collections will again rise.”

Interestingly, Salman Khan’s last film Tiger 3 (2023) also went for an unconventional Sunday release. It arrived in theatres on Sunday, November 12, 2023, on the day of Diwali. It had the advantage of the post-Diwali holiday effect throughout the week.

The source, however, maintained, “The final call on the release date is yet to be taken. Once it’s done, the makers will announce it in the forthcoming assets of Sikandar.”

Meanwhile, many in the industry are confident that Sikandar will arrive on March 30. The popular ticketing website in Germany, Mykinoplex, has begun selling tickets for Sikandar from March 30 onwards.

Besides Salman Khan, Sikandar also stars Rashmika Mandanna. It is produced by Sajid Nadiadwala and directed by A R Murugadoss.
