The wait is finally over and the box office is all set to erupt! Salman Khan's highly-anticipated film ‘Sikandar’ has kicked off its advance booking with a bang, raking in a whopping approximate ₹2.5 crore for the shows on day 1. In this article, we'll dive into the details of Sikandar's advance booking numbers.
While the initial numbers may seem modest, industry experts expect the film's advance booking to pick up steam in the coming days. With over 90,000 tickets sold for around 10,190 shows in India, as per Sacnilk’s data, the film is poised for a strong opening.
The advance booking numbers for the film do seem promising but the film's box office prospects will depend on various factors, including word-of-mouth and competition from other releases. However, with Salman Khan's massive fan following and the film's impressive cast, ‘Sikandar’ is expected to perform well at the box office.

‘Sikandar’ boasts an impressive star cast, including Rashmika Mandanna, Kajal Aggarwal, Sharman Joshi, Prateik Babbar, and Sathyaraj. Directed by A R Murugadoss, the film is expected to be an action-packed entertainer.
Sikandar is expected to face stiff competition from Mohanlal's Malayalam action thriller, ‘L2: Empuraan,’ which is scheduled to release on March 27, just days before Sikandar's release. ‘L2: Empuraan’ has already sold over 4.5 lakh tickets, with a collection of ₹9.02 crore.

However, during a press conference in Delhi, Prithviraj Sukumaran, director of ‘L2: Empuraan,’ said that there is “no competition” among the two films. “Salman Khan is one of the biggest stars in the country, and there is no competition between the two movies. I hope it becomes a blockbuster… I will have no complaints if you watch L2: Empuraan at 11 am and Sikandar at 1 pm,” he added, as per a report by Hindustan Times.
