Sikandar Movie / Salman's stardom also failed him, 'Sikander' earned the least on the sixth day

There was a time when Salman Khan's films used to become hits just on his name, but now the audience wants everything - story, action and music. 'Sikander' earned only 3.75 crores on the sixth day. Fans want Salman to show seriousness in choosing scripts now.

Sikandar Movie: There was a time when Salman Khan's name was considered a guarantee of success at the box office. Whatever the story, the film would run only on the basis of his charismatic personality and tremendous fan following. But now the era of cinema has changed, and so have the expectations of the audience. Now people focus on content, not just faces - the story should be strong, the action sensible and the songs heart touching.

In such a situation, Salman Khan's much-awaited film 'Sikandar' could not stand the test of the audience. Even though there was a lot of discussion on social media about his pairing with Rashmika Mandanna, in reality this film failed to bind the audience.

The battle from 100 crore to 1000 crore club

Salman Khan has made his place in the 100 crore club with 19 films so far. But now the eyes of the audience and the industry are fixed on the 1000 crore club - a milestone which Shahrukh Khan and Aamir Khan have recently touched. In such a situation, the fans had similar expectations from Salman, and they felt that 'Sikandar' would make this dream come true.

But the truth is that 'Sikandar' did a business of only 3.75 crores on the sixth day - which is the lowest figure of the film till date. The film has so far earned only 94 crores in India, and the figure has reached 150 crores globally. In such a situation, reaching 500 crores has also become a challenge.

The power of content and the responsibility of the star

The failure of 'Sikandar' has once again proved that stardom alone can no longer make films successful. The audience has now become wise. They do not want just action or glamour, but a solid story that keeps them glued to the screen.

Salman's fans are openly expressing their disappointment on social media. Some fans have even said that Salman should now focus on films with emotional and strong scripts like 'Bajrangi Bhaijaan' and 'Sultan'.

Will Salman Khan take a new turn?

Now is the time for Salman Khan to look at his career from a new perspective. His journey of stardom may have been amazing, but it is important for every star to adapt with time.

The failure of 'Sikander' is an opportunity to learn, understand and improve. Fans still love Salman immensely, but they want their superstar to be number one in terms of content as well.

If Salman Khan becomes more careful about the script in the coming times, then there is no doubt that he can once again become the 'Sikander' of the box office - this time not just with stardom, but with strong stories.
