Salman Khan’s Film Sikandar to Release on Sunday, March 30, 2025
Bollywood fans are super excited about Sikandar, as the film is just two weeks away from release. The main reason for the craze is that it stars superstar Salman Khan in the lead role. Plus, the movie is releasing on Eid, which has now become a festival linked with Salman’s big releases.
Earlier, the film’s posters and promotions only mentioned “Eid 2025” as the release time. There were many guesses about the exact date, with reports suggesting it could be March 28 (Friday), March 29 (Saturday), or March 30 (Sunday). Now, Bollywood Hungama has confirmed that the film will release on Sunday, March 30, 2025.
Why Sikandar is Releasing on March 30
A source told Bollywood Hungama:“Sikandar’s release date is locked for Sunday, March 30. The makers believe this is the perfect day for release. Sunday will be a big holiday, especially in Maharashtra, because of Gudi Padwa. Ramzan Eid will be celebrated on Monday, March 31. Many cities will see a post-Eid holiday effect on April 1 (Tuesday) and April 2 (Wednesday). The film’s box office collections will also get a boost from Friday, April 4, making it strong till Sunday, April 6.”
Similar Strategy Like Tiger 3
This is not the first time Salman Khan’s film is releasing on a Sunday. His last movie, Tiger 3 (2023), was released on Sunday, November 12, which was Diwali day. The strategy worked well, as the film got good collections throughout the week.
Official Announcement & Trailer Release
On March 16, Bollywood Hungama also reported that the official release date would be announced by Wednesday, March 19. The trailer of Sikandar is expected to come out next weekend, and advance bookings will start around the same time. There are also reports of a grand event planned for the promotions, which will increase the excitement even more.
Star Cast & Director
Apart from Salman Khan, Sikandar also features Rashmika Mandanna, Kajal Aggarwal, and Sharman Joshi in important roles. The film is directed by A R Murugadoss, known for making high-action films.
With Eid release, big stars, and festival holidays, Sikandar is set to be a massive blockbuster at the box office!
