Rashmika Mandanna has already proved her mettle in Bollywood with Animal. Mandanna, a rising star known for her roles in critically acclaimed films like “Geetha Govindam” and the blockbuster “Pushpa: The Rise,” has already established a strong fan base. Her pairing with Salman Khan is a fresh and exciting prospect, creating immense anticipation for their on-screen chemistry. Mandanna’s entry into Bollywood through such a high-profile project is a major step in her career, signifying her growing popularity across the nation.
She also shared her excited on social media which states “You guys for a long time have been asking me for the next update and here it is. Surprise!! I am truly grateful and honoured to be a part of #Sikandar.
“Sikandar” is slated for a grand release during Eid 2025. Salman Khan films traditionally perform exceptionally well during the festive period, and “Sikandar” is expected to be no different. The combination of Khan’s immense star power, Murugadoss’s proven directorial skills, Mandanna’s rising popularity, and a big budget sets the stage for a potential box office bonanza. “Sikandar” has all the ingredients of a blockbuster: a superstar cast, a renowned director, a high budget, and a promising script (according to reports). The addition of Rashmika Mandanna brings in a fresh perspective and a new wave of fans. With Eid 2025 as the target date, the excitement is sure to build in the coming months. This action-packed spectacle promises to be a visual treat and a fitting addition to Salman Khan’s impressive filmography.
