Salman Khan’s Star Power Still Unmatched
Despite its diminishing box office strength, Salman Khan’s Eid release Sikandar continues to leave a lasting mark. Even as Sunny Deol’s Jaat stirs buzz in theatres, it has yet to surpass two significant milestones set by Sikandar — a testament to Salman’s unwavering box office dominance.
Sikandar’s Decline But Records Still Intact
Sikandar had a thunderous start at the box office but soon found itself overshadowed by Vicky Kaushal’s Chhava and Sunny Deol’s Jaat. The film’s collection dropped considerably after the first week. However, Salman’s fan base and legacy ensured the movie created history in its initial run.
Day 17 Earnings Report
According to Saknlik.com, Sikandar earned approximately ₹16 lakh on its 17th day (Wednesday). The film’s total domestic collection has now reached ₹109.76 crore. While the numbers may have slowed, this figure keeps Sikandar ahead in crucial box office battles.
‘Jaat’ Still Trails in Two Key Areas
Though Jaat has been making waves, it has not managed to beat Sikandar in two key areas:
- Domestic Collection: Jaat still needs ₹43 crore more to surpass Sikandar‘s total of ₹109.76 crore.
- Worldwide Gross: Sunny Deol’s film must cross an additional ₹130 crore to beat Sikandar globally.
Final Word
Salman Khan once again proves that even when a film loses steam, his box office legacy remains strong. Sikandar may not be dominating screens anymore, but its early success and unbroken records are a reminder of the superstar’s unmatched presence in Indian cinema.
