According to a report, the first schedule of Sikandar’s shooting in Mumbai is expected to wrap up today. The filming concludes with a major action sequence featuring Salman Khan at the Taj Lands End in Bandra. A source revealed to Mid Day that Salman will be filming a crucial action scene with actor Prateik Babbar at the Chitrakoot Grounds, involving a plane and a specially created exterior set.
After completing the action set-piece at Taj Lands End on Monday, the team will take a one-and-a-half-month break to allow for the construction of a new set at the SRPF Ground in Goregaon, expected to take about 45 days. The next filming schedule is planned for August, with AR Murugadoss’ team carefully planning to utilise the monsoon season for set construction. This upcoming schedule will involve filming action sequences and crowd-heavy scenes over a 40-day period.
In June, Salman Khan shared the first photo from the sets of the film, which quickly went viral. Fans were ecstatic and showered praises on the actor, eagerly waiting for the release. Sikandar is slated for a 2025 Eid release, with Rashmika Mandanna starring as the leading lady. Taking to his Instagram handle, Salman Khan had shared a photo where he was seen looking at the computer with a bright smile. “Looking forward to #Eid2025 with team #Sikandar #SajidNadiadwala’s #Sikandar. Directed by @a.r.murugadoss Releasing in cinemas EID 2025,” read the caption.
Murugadoss is currently managing several projects, including an action film featuring Tamil actor Sivakarthikeyan, tentatively titled SK23. To ensure a smooth transition to working on Sikandar, he plans to complete a significant portion of SK23 in advance.
Sikandar represents AR Murugadoss’s highly anticipated return to Hindi cinema after an eight-year hiatus following Akira (2016). This film also reunites Salman Khan with producer Sajid Nadiadwala, a duo known for their blockbuster successes such as Kick, Judwaa, and Mujhse Shaadi Karogi.
