Sikandar Box Office Collection Day 3: With 32% dip, Salman's film enters Rs 100 crore club
Sikandar Box Office Collection Day 3: Salman Khan and Rashmika Mandanna recently headlined a family entertainer, which arrived in theatres on March 30. Touted to be an Eid and Ugadi offering, the film was released on Sunday, affecting the numbers predominantly. Though Sikandar has finally managed to enter the Rs 100 crore club, its numbers are only dropping. Read on!
According to Sacnilk, Sikandar earned Rs 19.5 crore on Day 3 (1st April), which is about a 32% drop from its previous day’s collection - Rs 29 crore. This takes the film’s domestic net to Rs 74.5 crore and with an overseas net of Rs 34.75 crore, Sikandar’s worldwide total currently stands at Rs 120 crore. The numbers are expected to increase since there’s no competition arriving anytime soon.
The Times of India rated the movie 2 out of 5, and a part of their review read, “This actioner suffers from an underwhelming plot and clichéd narrative. The story and the narrative are the biggest letdown of this larger-than-life movie; even if they are trying to draw in die-hard Salman Khan fans, we wish they had taken the action notches higher. A few standout punches and stunts here and there could have probably salvaged this one.”
Sikandar’s plot overview
Sanjay Rajkot (Salman Khan), the kind-hearted king of Rajkot, loses his wife, Saisri (Rashmika Mandanna), after a clash with a powerful minister (Sathyaraj). Before her death, she donated her organs to three people in Mumbai. The minister, seeking to erase her memory, targets these organ recipients— a young boy in Dharavi, a CA student, and a heartbroken college girl.
Sanjay vows to protect them, helping improve their lives while battling the minister's attempts to harm them. He helps save thousands in Dharavi, empowers a homemaker (Kajal Agarwal), and aids the college girl in moving on from her pain, all while fighting the minister's henchmen. The story is about love, sacrifice, and Sanjay’s fight to preserve his wife’s legacy.
Written and directed by A. R. Murugadoss, Sikandar is produced by Sajid Nadiadwala.
