Sikandar’s Box Office Brawl! 🎬
Arey bhai, Salman Khan and Rashmika Mandanna’s latest flick Sikandar is out here trying to conquer the box office like a pro wrestler in a Bollywood ring. On its ninth day, the film raked in a solid ₹1.75 crore net in India, bringing its total to a respectable ₹104.25 crore. Meanwhile, the Malayalam juggernaut L2 Empuraan is hot on its heels with a ₹100.10 crore collection. Kya baat hai! Talk about a close contest! 😲
Released with the fanfare of Eid on March 30, Sikandar took off with a ₹26 crore opening, cruising past the ₹100 crore mark by day 8. But wait, the challenge is still on! Can it beat Salman’s previous non-Eid blockbuster Tiger 3, which roared to a whopping ₹464 crore worldwide? The suspense is killing us! 😅
The film isn’t just chilling at the top; it’s eyeing to outshine Chhaava, L2 Empuraan, and the Telugu titan Sankranthiki Vasthunam in the global earnings race. Kaun banega box office ka Sikandar? 🏆
About the Film:
In Sikandar, Salman plays the daring Sanjay Rajkot, while Rashmika dons the role of his loving spouse, Saisri. But hold your horses, the critics aren’t exactly throwing bouquets. The film’s storyline and performances have been, let’s just say, thoda average, ji. With a star filled lineup featuring Sathyaraj, Kajal Aggarwal, and more, one would expect fireworks, but alas, it’s more of a sparkler show. 🎇
And then there’s L2 Empuraan, the unexpected underdog giving our Bollywood biggie a run for its money since its release on March 27. The coming days will reveal if Sikandar can keep its crown or if it will be dethroned. 😬
