Salman Khan’s ongoing star power has received harsh reviews from both viewers and critics, but expectations for “Sikandar” are expected. The film won 85 Rs in just three days and is on track beyond the 100 croix mark to become Salman’s 18th film.
Industry reaction to “Sikandal”
A viral clip from one of Khan’s interviews sparked new debates about selective support in Bollywood. In an interview with the Bollywood Bubble, the host said the industry is largely silent about “Sikandar,” despite Salman’s often promoting his colleagues’ films.
Salman’s perspective
Salman responded by suggesting that others might believe they don’t need their support. However, he emphasized that everyone, including himself, needs support.
Supporting fellow actors
Khan has shifted his focus to upcoming recent releases, showing his continued support for fellow actors. He highlighted Sunny Deor’s upcoming mass action film “Jaat,” which is scheduled for release on April 10, 2025.‘, starring Mohanlal and Prithviraj Sukumaran, premiered two days before “Sikandar”, and has already achieved an incredible success.
Industry support for “Sikandar”
In particular, Sunny Deol is the only Bollywood star publicly promoting Sikandar, sharing a supportive post on social media for Salman’s Film. Aamir Khan appeared in a promotional video with Salman and director AR Murgados, but the overall lack of support across the industry is very clear.
