Sikandar vs Singham Again: UAE Advance Booking Breakdown
According to Koimoi, Salman Khan’s Sikandar has achieved:
–799 tickets sold across 253 shows at VOX Cinemas
-AED 45.76K (₹10.71 lakh) in opening-day advance sales
In contrast, Ajay Devgn’s Singham Again had:
-AED 28.9K (₹6.76 lakh) in advance bookings
–67 shows only, significantly lower than Sikandar’s 253
Is Sikandar Really Performing Better? The Show Count Factor
While Sikandar’s numbers are higher, there’s an important catch—it has 73% more shows than Singham Again.
🔹 Singham Again: 67 shows in UAE
🔹 Sikandar: 253 shows, more than 3x the number of screenings
This suggests that while Salman Khan’s film is leading in pre-sales, its per-show performance may not be as strong as expected. Given the star’s massive UAE fan base, the current booking trends are considered underwhelming for an Eid release.
Final Thoughts: Who Will Win the Box Office Battle?
With Salman Khan’s star power and a festival release, Sikandar still holds high box office potential. However, its real test will be whether it can match or surpass Singham Again’s overall performance despite its larger show count.
