Salman Ka Sikandar: 200 Crore Ka Budget, Flop Ka Result!

Salman Khan’s Sikandar: A Box Office Disaster
After the lukewarm response to Tiger 3, everyone was hoping for Salman Khan’s big comeback with Sikandar. But sadly, it seems like the magic is missing. The film failed to meet expectations and crashed at the box office. Let’s break down what went wrong.
Expectations vs. Reality
Directed by AR Murugadoss, who has given us blockbusters like Ghajini and Holiday starring Aamir Khan and Akshay Kumar respectively, Sikandar was highly anticipated. Everyone was excited to see what Murugadoss would do with Salman Khan. But the film failed to deliver, receiving negative reviews from critics and poor word-of-mouth from audiences.
Salman Khan’s Performance Criticised
Salman Khan himself was criticized for looking disinterested and lethargic throughout the film. The overall performance was considered dull and unengaging, which ultimately led to the film’s downfall.
Sikandar’s Box Office Performance
With a budget of 200 crores, Sikandar opened at a decent 30.06 crores, but the momentum quickly faded. After earning 115 crores in the first week, the film crashed at the Indian box office and couldn’t recover its costs. Despite running for over a month, it couldn’t compete with the newer releases and eventually left theatres.
Another Flop for Salman Khan
Sikandar marks Salman Khan’s fourth consecutive failure after Antim, Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan, and Tiger 3. This string of flops is certainly a cause for concern for the superstar.
Worldwide Collection
Sikandar managed to earn 153.34 crores gross in India and 58 crores overseas, resulting in a worldwide gross of 211.34 crores. Despite the overseas earnings, the film is considered a major flop.
Box Office Breakdown:
• India Net: 129.95 crores
• India Gross: 153.34 crores
• Overseas Gross: 58 crores
• Worldwide Gross: 211.34 crores
