Salman wants controversy-free Sikandar release
Reflects on how controversies delay films
Promises deeper emotions than trailer shows
Reunites with Sajid Nadiadwala after Kick
While speaking to ANI, Salman was asked if controversies have become a trend with every film release. Responding to this, the actor made it clear that he does not want any controversy surrounding 'Sikandar'.
"Arey nahin chahiye bhai humko koi controversy. Bohot saare controversies se guzar chuke hain hum. Humko nahin chahiye koi controversy," the actor said.
"And I don't think controversies make a film a hit. We've seen, in fact, that sometimes a film's release is delayed due to controversies, for example, from Friday to the next Tuesday," he added.
"Abhi bhi hain time bhai. 3 4 din nikal jaane do aur picture release ho jaane do uske baad bhi koi controversy chaie nahi," he further said.
Talking about what fans can expect from Sikandar, Salman assured that the film has much more to offer beyond what is seen in the trailer.
He said, "This is just a 3.5-minute trailer. When you see a 2 hours 25 mins long film, you will understand that this trailer was nothing. We cannot put everything in the trailer. There are a lot of things in the film that you are going to like...For an action film, emotions are very important..."
On being asked about Film Producer and his father Salim Khan attending the trailer launch of 'Sikandar', Actor Salman Khan said. "The love and respect he has earned is still intact. When I was leaving from home to attend the trailer launch, he told me he would join me too. Every member of our family looked at Dad and asked what has happened to you? When he came there, he climbed more than 8-10 steps to sit behind. He wanted to see the reaction of the press."
The film is directed by A.R. Murugadoss, renowned for his Tamil and Hindi blockbusters like Ghajini and Thuppakki. Sajid Nadiadwala has produced the project, marking Salman Khan's reunion with him after their 2014 blockbuster, Kick.
'Sikandar' is set to release on March 30, 2025.

Love how Salman respects his father so much! That story about Salim Khan climbing steps at his age to attend the launch was heartwarming ❤️

Not sure if I believe him...Salman's films always have some controversy or the other. Let's see if this time is different.

The trailer was fire! If the full movie has even better action and emotions like he's promising, this could be his comeback after recent flops.

Murugadoss directing + Salman acting + Sajid producing = Box office gold. Can't wait for Eid 2025!
