Salman Khan fans have finally received some clarity over his much-anticipated film Sikandar. Khan has been shooting for the film, directed by A.R. Murugadoss, for the past six months. Though the makers aim to wrap up the shoot only by January 2025, the fans are in for a late Christmas present. Pinkvilla has reported, according to a source close to the production, that Sajid Nadiadwala and AR Murugadoss are all set to officially release the teaser Sikandar on December 27 – Khan’s 59th birthday.
The source also claims that the first-look poster of Khan, in character, will be released along with the teaser.

Setting aside cameos in Singham Again and the upcoming film Baby John, this will be Khan’s first feature film release since starring in Tiger 3 (2023). Sikandar is slated for an Eid 2025 release.
The film, led by Khan and Rashmika Mandanna, is bankrolled by Nadiadwala. The film will mark the reunion of Khan and Nadiadwala, after their collaborations in films like Kick, Judwaa, and Mujhse Shaadi Karogi.
