new teaser for Salman Khan’s upcoming action thriller Sikandar was released on Thursday, offering a glimpse of the superstar in the titular role.
Directed by AR Murugadoss, the film promises to be a high-octane mass entertainer. It also stars Rashmika Mandanna and Kajal Aggarwal in pivotal roles and will hit the theatres on March 28.
The teaser begins with Salman narrating the story behind his name. As the video progresses, he announces that he is here to clean society. The teaser is packed with Hindi-film-style dialoguebaazi and also introduces Rashmika Mandanna and actor Sathyaraj.
Ahead of the teaser’s release, the film’s producers teased fans with an exciting update. “The wait is almost over. Set your reminders to see the film teaser of Sikandar tomorrow at 3:33 PM,” they wrote on social media.
A few days ago, the makers also unveiled a new poster featuring Salman Khan to mark producer Sajid Nadiadwala’s 58th birthday. “To all the amazing fans, your patience means the world to us. A little gift on #SajidNadiadwala’s birthday, after the love we’ve received on Sikandar!” they captioned the post.
Sikandar promises to showcase Salman in a rugged yet charismatic avatar and is touted to be one of the biggest films of the year. The film has been shot extensively in Hyderabad and Mumbai.
Sikandar also reunites Salman with producer Sajid Nadiadwala, known for delivering blockbusters like Kick and Mujhse Shaadi Karogi.
The film is crucial for Salman, whose last theatrical release, Tiger 3, struggled to draw audiences to cinema halls. The superstar also has Karan Johar’s The Bull and the highly anticipated Tiger vs Pathaan in the pipeline, where he will once again share the screen with Shah Rukh Khan.
