Sikandar’s Box Office Performance
Salman Khan's Sikandar has crossed Rs 75 crore at the box office but is expected to see a further drop on Wednesday. The film, which had high expectations, has struggled to maintain momentum after its initial release.

The Indian Motion Picture Producers’ Association (IMPPA) condemned the illegal act, stating that it caused significant financial losses. Despite efforts to curb piracy, such leaks continue to impact the film industry negatively.
