Sikandar box office update

As per the figures stated in the report, Sikandar collected ₹4.50 crore on its eighth day of release, taking its eight-day total to ₹102.25 crore net. The film saw a slight growth in collections owing to the weekend run. Sikandar opened at ₹26 crore, which was far less than Chhaava's ₹31 crore haul. By the end of its first week, Sikandar managed to collect ₹90.25 crore.

Meanwhile, Sikandar is inching towards the ₹200 crore club at the worldwide box office. As per the update shared by Sikandar’s production house, Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment, the film collected ₹187.84 crore gross worldwide in its seven-day run.

About Sikandar

Directed by AR Murugadoss, Sikandar is an action-thriller starring Salman Khan, Rashmika Mandanna, Sathyaraj, Kajal Aggarwal, Sharman Joshi, and Prateik Babbar in key roles.

Sikandar was leaked online mere hours before it was to be released. "The producer had the authorities pull the film down from 600 sites last night, but the harm had been done. The multiplication continued and is still continuing. Condemnable act which could cost the producer of the Salman-starrer dear," Nahta wrote.

An excerpt from the Hindustan Times review of the film read, “Salman still owns action scenes like a boss. You know he means business when he merely stands in a battlefield. Yet, Murugadoss’ direction is so below average, that it makes Salman appear even weaker an actor than he really is. And then there is Rashmika, whose dialogue delivery problems persist. She’s unconvincing, and virtually no scene allows her to redeem herself.”
