Sikandar Trailer: AR Murugadoss Sticks to an Outdated Formula

Sikandar Trailer: A Familiar Storyline?

Bollywood superstar Salman Khan collaborates with renowned director AR Murugadoss for the much-anticipated film Sikandar. While the film has already generated buzz, it has also faced criticism over its plot. The theatrical Sikandar trailer, released yesterday, suggests that Murugadoss has once again relied on a familiar formula, making the film look like a routine commercial entertainer.


A Predictable Storyline

The trailer hints at a typical mass-action narrative:

Salman Khan’s character is aggressive, constantly landing in trouble while trying to help others.
The story revolves around his mission to seek justice, targeting a corrupt politician.
This formula, once a staple in South Indian cinema, is now being phased out due to overuse.

Despite being a high-budget project, the film lacks freshness in its approach.


Murugadoss Admits to Compromises

At the trailer launch event, AR Murugadoss himself admitted that:

He struggles to stay true to the script when working with big stars.
He had to compromise on storytelling to include commercial elements.
These changes were made to satisfy Salman Khan’s fans and boost box-office openings.

This confession has further fueled mixed reactions from fans and critics.


Star Cast and Expectations

The film features a star-studded cast:

  • Rashmika Mandanna and Kajal Aggarwal play the leading ladies.
  • Sathyaraj portrays the antagonist.

However, despite its big names, the film lacks positive buzz, raising concerns about its reception.


Sikandar Trailer: Will Audiences Accept Sikandar?

With its commercial-heavy approach, Sikandar seems to rely on Salman Khan’s star power rather than innovation.

🎬 The film is set to hit theaters on 30th March.
👀 It remains to be seen how audiences will react to Murugadoss’ repetitive storytelling.

Stay tuned for more updates and box-office reactions!
