Salman Khan’s ‘Sikandar’ reviews are mixed to negative

The much-anticipated Bollywood biggie “Sikandar,” starring Salman Khan and directed by A.R. Murugadoss, hit theaters today ahead of the Ramzan festival. The film features Rashmika Mandanna as the leading lady, with Kajal Aggarwal in a minor role.

Blending mass appeal with a social message, “Sikandar” has sparked polarized reactions. While some critics found its narrative weak and execution outdated, others dismissed it as a formulaic attempt. However, Salman Khan’s star power ensured a strong opening, though the numbers fall short of his previous blockbusters.

Adding to the film’s challenges, “Sikandar” suffered a pirated leak before its official release, prompting swift action to curb piracy.

This marks Rashmika Mandanna’s first collaboration with Salman Khan, but early reviews suggest her role left little impact, offering her little to celebrate with “Sikandar.”
