The long-awaited movie Sikandar from Salman Khan met high anticipation because of its Eid premiere. The Indian audience failed to give the expected theatrical reception to this film. The negative audience feedback about Sikandar has led to disappointing earnings at the box office despite its big release date.
The Low Box Office Numbers
On its first Saturday, film collected 5.24 crores, according to day 7 figures. The first Saturday earnings of Sikandar represent Salman Khan’s lowest opening day performance in seven years. Tiger 3 exceeded movie by generating 18.75 crores during its initial Saturday release despite being a previous production by Salman Khan.
Is Sikandar Heading for Trouble?
The movie has performed better than Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan by crossing 115 crores during its initial week, although this success is not sufficient to recover the film’s 200 crore budget.
The film faces significant challenges to return its expensive 200 crore budget, although it established demand during its first week through 115 crore gross revenue. Film requires an additional 85 crores for profitability because it has earned only 57.5% of its production costs thus far.

What’s Next for Sikandar?
The motion picture is projected to decline substantially throughout the weekdays because it failed to demonstrate any improvement throughout the weekend. Analysts have suggested that the Sunday release strategy looked ineffective, much like during the Tiger 3 release. Movie faces an uncertain future to recover from its budget losses during the upcoming weeks.
