Salman Khan's Sikandar preps for major shoots—from high-flying action to explosive stunts

Both Salman Khan and AR Murugadoss excel in action films. Therefore, their first joint venture, Sikandar, is shaping up to be an action extravaganza. The upcoming roster includes three battle sequences that Murugadoss plans to do, despite the fact that the pair had already begun filming in June. The squad is getting ready to begin the pivotal leg at Chitrakoot Grounds on August 26, according to Mid Day.

Upcoming battle sequences in Sikandar

These high-intensity stunt sequences seem to be Murugadoss's crowning achievement, and he intends to stage them on a massive scale. According to a source, the first aerial action set-piece features Salman suspended from a height engaging in hand-to-hand combat. The choreography will seamlessly integrate aerial acrobatics and close-quarters combat. Because of special effects, this sequence should be one of the most visually stunning in the film.

The second sequence involves a high-speed automobile chase that ends in explosions and accidents, while the third sequence is the pivotal battle. In this scene, the main adversary and Salman's character will engage in a vicious brawl. The insider goes on to say that the filmmaker has expressed a desire for a more violent and graphic look.

Following this schedule, the unit will relocate to Goregaon's SRPF Ground.

Director's vision for Sikandar

According to reports, the director's goal in making Sikandar was to create an emotional roller coaster that was visually stunning. An exciting jetfight between Khan and the villain's (Sathyaraj) son was supposedly part of the original filming schedule.

In order to devote himself fully to this film, Salman has turned down other projects in the previous two months. This encompasses his non-appearance on the hit reality programme Bigg Boss OTT Season 3. Despite the superstar's best efforts, the biopic of Ravindra Kaushik, India's most renowned spy, originally conceived by Rajkumar Gupta, never came to fruition.

Salman will play a present-day good-hearted businessman who has a troubled past in the 2025 Eid offering, which also stars Rashmika Mandanna and Sathyaraj.
