Moviegoers slam Salman Khan’s film

When asked how he liked the movie, one of the moviegoers said, “Sar dukhne laga, chodho” (I got a headache, forget it). Another said, “Kuch bhi samajh nahi aaya, start se end ho gaya par kuch samajh nahi aaya” (I didn’t understand anything, it started and ended, but I didn’t get it). Another person called the film gandi (terrible), and when asked why, he said, “Story hi nahi hai kuch, aisa laga kab khatam ho rahi hai” (There’s no story, I was just waiting for it to end).

Another moviegoer exclaimed, “Salman Khan ka role nahi samajh aaya” (Couldn’t understand Salman Khan’s role). Another said, “Film will go flop. Today was Eid and theatre was still empty. It’s a flop.”

Public criticises Salman Khan’s acting

People also criticised Salman’s acting in the film, with one saying, “Yeh sabse wahiyat movie thi life ki. Salman ki jo acting hai ekdum wahiyat hai” (This was the worst movie of my life. Salman’s acting was absolutely terrible).

Another viewer claimed that the film was nothing extraordinary and that even the theatres were empty. One joked, “Salman ne jaloos kata liya apna. Take Rahul Gandhi also in the film and it will be a hit” (Salman has embarrassed himself. Take Rahul Gandhi in the film, and it will be a hit). While some viewers refused to comment, others called it bakwas (nonsense) and said there was no head or tail to the film. A shocked fan also quipped, “Kya banaya hai yeh? Salman Khan ne aisi movie bana di?” (What has he made? Did Salman Khan really make such a film?). Another said, “I want my money back.”

About Sikandar

The film, which was released on March 30, had a disappointing start considering it was a Salman Khan film. It managed to earn only ₹26 crore on its first day despite being released on a holiday. It failed to surpass Vicky Kaushal’s Chhaava, which earned ₹31 crore at the box office on its opening day.

Directed by AR Murugadoss and produced by Sajid Nadiadwala, the film also stars Rashmika Mandanna, Kajal Aggarwal, Prateik Babbar, Sharman Joshi, and Sathyaraj in key roles. While the action scenes in the film were praised, it has been criticised for its weak storyline and lack of emotions.

During the trailer launch event, Salman guaranteed Sikandar’s success, saying, “Eid, Diwali, New Year, festive, non-festive, it’s the love of the people, and picture acchi ho ya buri ho, woh sau ( ₹100 crore) toh paar kara hi dete hain” (Whether the film is good or bad, it will at least earn ₹100 crore). He then corrected himself and said this film would cross the ₹200 crore mark, “ ₹100 crore bohot pehle ki baat hai” ( ₹100 crore is a thing of the past).
