Salman Khan's latest release Sikandar is holding up decently at the box office. Though the movie is not performing to its full potential, it has recorded a reasonable opening weekend.

Sikandar earns Rs 72 crore in opening weekend; ranks at the 6th spot among other Salman Khan's Eid releases 

Directed by AR Murugadoss, Sikandar released in cinemas on March 30 (Sunday), coinciding with the Eid festival. The action drama couldn't impress the audience much and met with negative word-of-mouth. However, it managed to net over a good sum of Rs 72 crore in its opening weekend, with its third day minting in the vicinity of Rs 19 crore to Rs 20 crore. 

The movie is heading towards the Rs 100 crore club soon. It will be interesting to see how far it can go from there on. Though it is an underwhelming figure for a Salman Khan starrer, however one must note that it’s only Bhaijaan whose movies are hitting the century-mark every time, no matter how bad the movie is! That's what we call real stardom. 

When it comes to comparing the first three days collection of Sikandar with previous Salman Khan’s Eid releases, it grabbed the 6th spot among 11 movies that were released from 2010 to 2025. 

To be precise, Sikandar performed better than Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan in its opening weekend but remained far behind the likes of Race 3, Sultan, and Bajrangi Bhaijaan in its first three days of release.

Opening weekend box office collections of Salman Khan's Eid releases in India (2010-2025):

  • Sikandar: Rs 71 crore
  • Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan: Rs 59 crore
  • Bharat: Rs 90.50 crore
  • Tubelight: Rs 61.50 crore
  • Race 3: Rs 100 crore
  • Sultan: Rs 105 crore
  • Bajrangi Bhaijaan: Rs 101 crore
  • Kick: Rs 80 crore
  • Ek Tha Tiger: Rs 56 crore
