Following the lukewarm performance of Tiger 3, Salman Khan is aiming for a grand box office revival with Sikandar. Read on for details
The countdown has begun for the much-awaited release of Salman Khan’s Sikandar, set to hit theaters this Eid.
After a series of lukewarm box office performances in the post-pandemic era, the superstar is gearing up for a potential comeback with this action thriller. As excitement builds, let’s take a closer look at the earnings the film needs to achieve to secure its status as a hit.
Sikandar’s Budget
Tiger 3 holds the title as the most expensive film in Salman Khan’s career, boasting a staggering budget of Rs 300 crores. While not reaching the same level, his upcoming action-packed venture, Sikandar, ranks close behind in terms of production cost.
Reports suggest that the film is being made with a hefty budget of 200 crores, cementing its place as one of Salman’s most ambitious cinematic undertakings.
With a hefty budget, Sikandar faces a challenging path to secure the “success” label at the Indian box office. To achieve this feat, the film will need to surpass Salman Khan’s previous box office records and emerge as his highest-grossing film to qualify as a clean hit.
What Box Office Milestone Must Sikandar Achieve to Be a Hit?
As per box office benchmarks, a movie must generate twice its production cost to achieve clean hit status. For Sikandar, this translates to an impressive Rs 400 crore net collection at the Indian box office.
If it manages to hit this target, it won’t just secure a hit label but will also become Salman Khan’s highest-grossing film in India.
Tiger Zinda Hai remains Salman Khan’s top-grossing film in India, boasting a net collection of Rs 339.16 crores. For Sikandar to secure a hit status, it will need to outperform this benchmark by 17.93%, setting a higher target for box office success.
It’s a challenging target, but not impossible to achieve if the film resonates with the audience and garners strong word-of-mouth.
In the post-pandemic era, Tiger 3 holds the title of Salman Khan’s highest-grosser, with a net collection of Rs 286 crores. All eyes are now on Sikandar to see if it can surpass this milestone and secure a clean hit status.
