‘Sikander’: Salman Khan announces his next film on Eid

Superstar Salman Khan on Thursday announced that his next film has been titled Sikander and will be released in theatres across the country on Eid 2025.

Salman will play the titular role in the movie, which will be directed by A R Murugadoss.


The project will be produced by Sajid Nadiadwala’s banner Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment.

In a message posted on his official social media handles, the superstar sent his best wishes to his fans for the festival of Eid and asked them to watch Akshay Kumar-Tiger Shroff starrer Bade Miyan Chote Miyan as well as Ajay Devgn's Maidaan in theatres.

"Iss Eid Bade Miyan Chote Miyan aur Maidaan ko dekho aur agli Eid Sikandar se aa kar milo... Wish u all Eid Mubarak!” Salman, 58, posted along with an announcement poster.

Murugadoss is best known for directing Tamil and Hindi films such as Ghajini, Thuppakki, Holiday: A Soldier Is Never Off Duty, and Sarkar.

He had earlier penned the script of Salman’s 2014 movie Jai Ho, which was a remake of Murugadoss’ Telugu hit Stalin.

Salman was most recently seen in Tiger 3, the third part of his Tiger series.

Sequels often struggle to maintain momentum when production stretches over several years, but Kalki 2 continues to generate strong interest even without regular updates from the team.

Much of that anticipation comes from the world created by Nag Ashwin in Kalki 2898 AD, which ended with several unresolved story threads and set the stage for a larger cinematic universe. The scale of the film, combined with its mythology-inspired storytelling and ensemble cast, has kept conversations around the sequel alive.
