It then earned Rs 11.50 crore (USD 1.35 million) on Day 2 and Rs 6.35 crore (USD 0.75 million) on Day 3, bringing its three-day total to Rs 37.80 crore (USD 4.45 million).
The film is on track to reach the USD 5 million milestone by the end of its opening week. However, given the lukewarm response, it seems likely that Sikandar will finish its international run below Rs 60 crore (USD 7 million), which would be disappointing for a Salman Khan film.
In total, the movie has grossed around Rs 124 crore globally in just three days, with Rs 86.50 crore coming from domestic markets alone. It is expected to soon cross the Rs 150 crore mark worldwide.

The next few days will be critical for this Salman Khan feature. It will be intriguing to see how it performs moving forward, especially since it opened to negative reviews that have significantly impacted its earnings.
Fans are eagerly waiting for Salman Khan’s triumphant return. Sikandar, which also stars Rashmika Mandanna, Sathyaraj, Prateik Babbar, and Sharman Joshi, is currently showing in theaters.
The film’s performance has sparked discussions about the current landscape of Bollywood. With several high-budget films struggling to captivate audiences recently, the industry is facing challenges.
Sikandar’s lackluster performance serves as a reminder that even top stars can’t always ensure box office success. The film’s future will be determined in the coming days, and it will be interesting to see how it fares.
As box office figures continue to come in, one thing is evident—Sikandar has a long journey ahead to reach its potential.
