Actor Salman Khan will reportedly begin shooting for his next film ‘Sikandar’ with AR Murugadoss in May.
This will mark Salman’s first collaboration with the ‘Ghajini’ director. Touted to be an actioner, ‘Sikandar’ will hit theatres during Eid 2025.
According to a report by MidDay, Salman Khan will begin ‘Sikandar’ in May. However, reports have also surfaced indicating that Murugadoss is presently directing an action film, tentatively titled ‘SK23’, starring Sivakarthikeyan. The shooting for the movie is expected to continue until June 2024.
The public quoted a source saying, “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.”
Salman Khan announced the film’s title on Instagram on April 11 and shared its poster with the caption, “Iss Eid ‘Bade Miyan Chote Miyan’ aur ‘Maidaan’ ko dekho aur agli Eid Sikandar se aa kar Milo (Watch Bade Miyan Chote Miyan and Maidaan on this Eid, next Eid, meet Sikandar) Wish u all Eid Mubarak!”
‘Sikandar’ marks the reunion of Salman Khan and Sajid Nadiadwala after their blockbuster collaborations in films like ‘Kick’, ‘Judwaa’, and ‘Mujhse Shaadi Karogi’. Meanwhile, AR Murugadoss made his Hindi debut with ‘Ghajini’, which crossed Rs 100 crore at the box office. He also helmed Akshay Kumar’s film, ‘Holiday: A Soldier Is Never Off Duty’.
