Mumbai: Salman Khan, known for his unwavering dedication to his craft, is currently shooting for his upcoming film ‘Sikandar’, slated for an Eid 2025 release. The movie, already generating significant buzz, promises to be an action-packed blockbuster, featuring a star-studded cast. Fans of the Bollywood superstar are eagerly awaiting the film, especially after the success of ‘Tiger 3’.
The shooting of ‘Sikandar’ began in Mumbai, with a rigorous 45-day schedule already underway. Despite the excitement surrounding the film, concerns emerged when a video of Salman Khan at a recent event went viral. The video showed the actor visibly uncomfortable, repeatedly clutching his ribs, leading to speculation about a possible injury.
Reports later confirmed that Salman Khan is indeed suffering from a rib injury. However, the actor, known for his indomitable spirit, has continued shooting for ‘Sikandar’ despite the pain. This decision has further endeared him to his fans, who admire his commitment to his work.
In ‘Sikandar’, Salman Khan will portray a character described as arrogant and angry, a role that is expected to showcase the actor’s versatility. The first phase of shooting involves intense action sequences, with Salman collaborating with an action director from the ‘Mission Impossible’ series.

Adding to the excitement is the inclusion of Sathyaraj, famously known for his role as ‘Kattappa’ in ‘Bahubali’, who will be playing the antagonist in ‘Sikandar’. This casting choice has only heightened expectations, as fans look forward to seeing the dynamic between Salman Khan and Sathyaraj on screen.
Salman Khan’s leading lady in the film will be Rashmika Mandanna, who is quickly rising in the ranks of Bollywood. The on-screen pairing of Salman and Rashmika is another element that fans are eager to witness.
Despite his injury, Salman Khan’s determination to see through his commitments has set a new standard in the industry. His ability to push through pain and deliver high-quality work is a testament to his professionalism and passion for filmmaking.
