'Sikandar' trailer: Salman promises Eid treat with explosive action drama
What's the story
The trailer for Salman Khan's much-anticipated film, Sikandar, is finally out!
Directed by AR Murugadoss (Ghajini) and produced by Sajid Nadiadwala, the film will hit theaters on Eid (March 30).
Rashmika Mandanna, Sathyaraj, Kajal Aggarwal, and Prateik Babbar are also part of the cast ensemble.
Khan was last seen in Tiger 3 in 2023.
Trailer
The trailer promises a bumper dose of action and emotion
Though the trailer is over three minutes long, it does not give away the storyline and does a good job of building suspense.
As expected, the clip is ripe with action sequences and showcases Khan as a messiah of the masses.
The narrative keeps Aggarwal's character under wraps, hinting at a surprise.
On the flip side, however, Khan's (59) dialogue delivery fails to fully impress and his age gap with Mandanna (28) is another drawback.
