Salman Khan recently announced the title of his upcoming film with AR Murugadoss on Eid. Although he won’t have an Eid release this year, he promised to return to the big screen on Eid 2025. Salman revealed that his next film with AR Murugadoss is titled Sikandar and is slated for an Eid release in 2025.
Taking to Instagram, Salman shared the title slate that read, “Sajid Nadiadwala presents Salman Khan in and as Sikandar.” Sharing the title, Salman gave a shoutout to this year’s Eid releases, Akshay Kumar and Tiger Shroff’s Bade Miyan Chote Miyan and Ajay Devgn’s Maidaan. “Iss Eid ‘Bade Miyan Chote Miyan’ aur ‘Maidaan’ ko dekho aur agli Eid Sikandar se aa kar milo…. Wish u all Eid Mubarak!”
A source close to the production told Mid Day that despite a problem with dates, the director seems to have found a way around it. Murugadoss is currently shooting an action film, tentatively titled SK23, with Tamil star Sivakarthikeyan, which is set to continue until June. This means he’ll have to juggle his time between the Hindi and Tamil projects for the next two months.
“Before Sikandar goes on floors, Murugadoss wants to wrap up maximum portions of SK23. After he shoots the first schedule of Sikandar in May, he will go back to finish Sivakarthikeyan’s movie in June. From July, he will be fully immersed in the Salman-starrer,” said a source.
In a recent interview with Times Of India, A R Murugadoss teased the film. He had said, “In addition to high-octane action sequences, it will be packed with emotions and also carry a powerful social message. It will be a pan-India film. Audiences can expect to see a new kind of Salman Khan in this film.”
He added, “Salman and I had discussed this project five years ago, but due to circumstances, we couldn’t proceed at that time. Recently, he asked for another narration. After that, he said that the script gave him a good vibe and asked if we could start working on it immediately.”
