If Mohanlal is the man of mystery and megawatt swagger in Malayalam cinema, then Salman Khan is Bollywood’s eternal poster boy for charisma-over-craft. Sikandar, his Eid 2025 offering, is yet another high-octane spectacle that leans heavily on his star power and machismo. Directed by Ghajini’s A.R. Murugadoss, Sikandar is positioned as a romantic action thriller in which Khan plays the titular hero, a larger-than-life figure. Expect stylised action, heavy drama, and — predictably — a much younger love interest. Rashmika Mandanna stars opposite the 58-year-old Salman, and the age gap is, well, unmissable. The supporting cast includes Kajal Aggarwal, Sathyaraj, Sharman Joshi, and Prateik Babbar, adding further weight to what promises to be an Eid entertainer packed with punchlines, punches, and patriotic fervour. Whether you’re there for Salman’s shirtless slo-mo fights or just to bask in the madness of his mythical hero persona, Sikandar looks like pure masala mayhem — unapologetic, over-the-top, and made for fans who like their heroes invincible and undeterred by age.
