Revealing further details about the shoot of the film, a source told mid-day, “In Sikandar, Salman portrays a character that requires a high level of physicality and combat skills. While he began his physical prep last month focusing on agility and movement, Murugadoss utilised the time to rope in some of his favourite action choreographers. They have designed elaborate fight sequences that Salman needs to perfect over the next few weeks. This phase is critical not only for the actor, but also for the entire stunt team to coordinate and ensure safety during filming.” Apart from Chennai, some rehearsals will also take place in Hyderabad. Sikandar, which marks Khan’s first collaboration with the filmmaker, also stars Rashmika Mandanna.


As 'Sikandar' gears up for its first schedule, the excitement continues to build. This film is set to redefine action cinema, combining the talents of powerhouse producer Sajid Nadiadwala, superstar Salman Khan and visionary director A R Murugadoss. The ensemble is further strengthened with the addition of Rashmika Mandanna as the female lead, ensuring an even more dynamic and powerful cast.

Sajid Nadiadwala and Salman Khan have a 100 percent track record in their past films. The Duo gave Salman Khan’s first 200 crore film which was Kick directed by Sajid Nadiadwala. 

The title 'Sikandar' has already ignited a fervour of excitement and curiosity, leaving audiences eagerly anticipating the magic that will unfold on the big screen. Prepare for an extraordinary cinematic journey like never before—EID 2025 just got a whole lot more thrilling.
