courtesy: telangana todayAlmost a decade after his last stint at Hindi movies, director AR Murugadoss is making his Bollywood comeback with Salman Khan starrer Sikandar. The movie shall also bring back Salman to the silver screen after he remained away from it for a year.
During his interview with Times of India, Murugadoss revealed a similarity between his blockbuster Ghajini and Sikandar. He explained that both the movies are not just entertainer but also carries “very strong family emotions” and focuses on the dynamics of husband and wife.
“It explores how families function today, how couples treat each other, and what we might be missing in our relationships. That will be a highlight of the film. Though Ghajini seemed to be a psycho thriller to the audience, the love story of Aamir (Khan) and Asin was the surprise element. Similarly, here there’s an element of love which will move the audience.”
“Initially, people thought Ghajini was just an action but the love story became its emotional core. Similarly, Sikandar has that surprise element – an intense, relatable husband-wife story at its heart,” he added.
When asked about what makes Sikandar stand out, Murugadoss said, “It will be a significant film in Salman Sir’s career. It’s not just an Eid entertainer-it has a mix of action, emotion, and mass appeal that will connect with audiences of all backgrounds. We’ve made a film that everyone, from hardcore Salman fans to family audiences, will enjoy.”
Aside from Khan, the film will feature Rashmika Mandanna, Kajal Aggarwal, Suniel Shetty, and Sharman Joshi. Sikandar will hit theatres on March 28, coinciding with Eid al-Fitr.
