On March 12, 2024, Salman Khan hinted at an upcoming collaboration with AR Murugadoss and Sajid Nadiadwala. Finally, on the occasion of Eid-ul-Fitr, the superstar revealed the title of the forthcoming film, i.e., Sikandar. However, that’s not all. To keep the fans on the edge of their seats, Salman Khan also revealed Sikandar’s release date window.
Salman Khan’s Sikandar to release on Eid 2025
Salman Khan has once again stirred fans’ excitement by announcing his upcoming action-packed thriller, Sikandar. Scheduled for release during Eid 2025, this film is already generating excitement, especially with its acclaimed collaboration.
In his signature style, Salman Khan took to social media to release the first poster of Sikandar while extending warm wishes for Eid to his fans. He tweeted, “Iss Eid ‘Bade Miyan Chote Miyan’ aur ‘Maidaan’ ko dekho aur agli Eid Sikandar se aa kar milo…. Wish u all Eid Mubarak! #SajidNadiadwala Presents #Sikandar. Directed by @ARMurugadoss @NGEMovies @WardaNadiadwala #SikandarEid2025.”
The announcement of Sikandar comes after much anticipation, with reports suggesting that discussions between Salman Khan and Sajid Nadiadwala about a potential collaboration had been brewing for some time.
Described as a global action entertainer, Sikandar is gearing up to start production on an international scale. After all, according to the reports, the film will be shot in Portugal and several other European countries. The film is reportedly touted as Sajid Nadiadwala’s next big entertainer, with a massive budget of $47 million.
Hence, Salman Khan aims to make a grand comeback and reclaim his throne as the king of Eid releases.
While Salman Khan’s absence from the Eid release roster this year may have broken the pattern, Sikandar’s announcement assures his fans of an Eid celebration like no other next year. Currently, Akshay Kumar’s Bade Miyan Chote Miyan and Ajay Devgn’s Maidaan are dominating the coveted release date slot.
