EXCLUSIVE: Salman Khan kicks off a 45 day marathon schedule of Sajid Nadiadwala & AR Murugadoss’ Sikandar in Mumbai

Following the extraordinary triumph of Kick, Salman Khan and filmmaker Sajid Nadiadwala are teaming up once more for the AR Murugadoss-directed project titled Sikandar. This upcoming movie is slated to be a high-octane drama with a potent social message, and it’s planned to hit theaters on Eid 2025. The dynamic duo of Sajid and Murugadoss have assembled an impressive cast for this film, as it pairs Salman Khan with Rashmika Mandanna for the first time and includes renowned south actor Sathyaraj as the villain. Excitingly, Salman Khan is about to commence a 45-day nonstop shoot of Sikandar in Mumbai today.

Reports from reliable sources indicate that filmmaker Sajid Nadiadwala and his production team have constructed an expansive set within a studio in Mumbai. Essentially, they’ve recreated various local landmarks of Mumbai on a grand scale. The construction process took approximately 3 months to complete, and the makers have invested significantly to ensure every detail appears genuine. This particular schedule for the film Sikandar is crucial as the team will be filming not only action scenes but also intense emotional and dramatic sequences, according to our source.

As a lifestyle expert, I can share that I’m equally thrilled about the upcoming shoot schedule, just like Salman Khan seems to be! While “Sikandar” promises plenty of action sequences, the screenplay is rich with emotional and dramatic moments that I can’t wait to witness under the visionary direction of AR Murugadoss. It’s exciting to know that Rashmika, Sathyaraj, and Prateik Babbar will be joining us for this part of the production too.

Following the Mumbai leg of filming, the Sikandar team plans to capture another schedule at an Indian palace, expected to last between 15-20 days. They are currently scouting for a palace that offers grandeur and high-quality production values for the movie. The third shooting phase is tentatively scheduled for around November, according to our source.

For those not aware, the upcoming film Sikandar stars Salman Khan in the main character, who is reminiscent of a genuine Sikandar given his royal lineage and displays of anger and arrogance. Previously, we reported that Salman Khan revisited his “bad boy” persona through a subplot in Sultan, and it appears he will reprise this popular role for the audience on Eid 2025.
