Movie Review: Experts’ Take
Trade analysts highlight weak scripting and pacing issues for the film’s underperformance. Despite Salman’s star power, the plot fails to engage fans, with daytime occupancies dropping sharply by the second week. Critics note the lack of novelty in the action sequences and emotional beats.
Will Sikandar Cross ₹250 Crore?
With upcoming releases creating competition, Sikandar needs a stronghold to hit breakeven. The film’s current trajectory suggests a lifetime collection of ₹150-160 crore, falling short of its budget.
