Salman Khan is back with a bang, and his latest Eid release Sikandar is setting the box office on fire! Directed by AR Murugadoss, this high-octane action entertainer has collected a massive ₹84–86 crore in just three days, making it the second-highest-grossing Eid release post-COVID, only behind Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan (₹91 crore). With just two more days to go before it enters the ₹100 crore club, Sikandar is proving that Salman Khan still rules Eid at the box office. On Day 3 (April 1, Tuesday), the film earned an impressive ₹22 crore despite a 33% drop from the weekend — a dip that’s typical, but still far superior to many post-pandemic releases.
What makes this achievement even more exciting is that Sikandar has already outperformed the lifetime collections of recent Eid releases like Runway 34 (₹32 crore), Heropanti 2 (₹26.5 crore), Maidaan (₹53 crore), and Bade Miyan Chote Miyan (₹66 crore). In fact, Sikandar has also surpassed the three-day collections of Salman’s own blockbusters Dabangg and Kick, cementing its place among his top openers.
With audiences loving the thrilling action, gripping storyline, and Salman’s magnetic screen presence, the film has struck a chord with both mass audiences and multiplex-goers. According to trade analysts, if the momentum continues, Sikandar could very well dethrone Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan to become the highest-grossing Eid film post-COVID. Bollywood hasn’t seen many Eid releases since 2020, but Sikandar has breathed new life into the festive box office season, emerging as the film everyone is Googling — from “Sikandar box office collection” and “Salman Khan Eid movie 2025” to “top post-COVID Eid releases.”
With strong word of mouth, massive footfalls, and growing buzz, all eyes are now on the Day 4 collection as Sikandar races towards the century mark. This is not just a movie — it’s a box office celebration, and Salman Khan is once again the reason behind it!
