Sikandar, starring Salman Khan and Rashmika Mandanna, is one of the most awaited films of the year. The action thriller is directed by AR Murugadoss, known for films like Ghajini, Darbar and Sarkar.
When asked if Sikandar would have a mix of emotional depth and thrilling action sequences, just like Ghajini. The director said, "Yes. This is not only a mass film; it has strong family emotions. Ghajini was about a boyfriend-girlfriend love story, but this is about a husband-wife relationship."
He added, "Sikandar explores how families function today, how couples treat each other, and what we might be missing in our relationships. That will be the highlight of the film. Though Ghajini seemed to be a psycho-thriller to the audience, the love story of Aamir and Asin was the surprise element. Similarly, here there's an element of love which will move the audience."
Sikandar is bankrolled by Sajid Nadiadwala under the banners of Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment and Salman Khan Films. The film will be released on March 30, a day before Eid.
