Salman Khan’s latest release, Sikandar, directed by AR Murugadoss, had a disappointing start at the box office. The film opened with just a 25 Cr net collection in India on the opening day despite the Sunday/holiday advantage. The surprising thing is, no Eid boost for Sikandar.
Today is the most anticipated Eid day, and the film did not take the expected jump. The early estimates are just in the range of 27 Cr net, which means it is not even a 10% jump on the festival day, which is shocking, and it also says that the movie will not sustain from here after.
Salman Khan’s Sikandar Fails to Capitalize on the EID Festival
Sikandar had no boost on Eid, and maybe tomorrow it might see a decent collection as the post-Eid day will also be like a holiday for Muslim people, but from Wednesday, it is likely to go with a single digit.
We need to see whether the film will go near the 150 Cr net in its full run. For 2 days, the film’s net is around 52 Cr, and reaching the 150 Cr net is certainly a Herculean task for Sikandar.
