Actor Salman Khan dropped the second teaser for his upcoming film Sikandar on Thursday, packed with high-adrenaline action sequences. While many fans praised the teaser, some social media users drew comparisons to Prashanth Neel’s Salaar, starring Prabhas, sparking a flurry of debates online.
A Scene That Sparked Debate
The teaser showcases Salman in his signature style, effortlessly taking down multiple opponents in various action-packed settings, from outdoor fights to an intense plane sequence. However, one particular scene—where Salman is poised to strike with a group of people armed with sharp, sword-like weapons behind him—reminded viewers of a similar moment in Salaar.

Social Media Reactions
Social media was abuzz with mixed reactions. Some users criticized the teaser, calling it a copy of Salaar, while others defended Sikandar’s originality. One user on X wrote, “Every masterpiece & its cheap copy #SikandarTeaser #Sikandar.” Another Reddit user commented, “Dialogues mundane and that ‘saaf kardunga’ dialogue felt like a Ravikumar-style punchline. Action is bland, but the last shot was well done—gave me Salaar vibes.”
Others debated which film executed the scene better. Several users created side-by-side collages of both films, asking followers, “Who did this better—Salman Khan in Sikandar or Prabhas in Salaar?”
Eid 2025 Release with a Star-Studded Cast
Directed by AR Murugadoss, Sikandar boasts a stellar cast, including Kajal Aggarwal and Rashmika Mandanna. Salman Khan is expected to showcase a brand-new look in the film, though it has not yet been revealed in the teasers. The film’s plot remains under wraps, further fueling curiosity. Sikandar is produced by Sajid Nadiadwala under the banner of Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment and is set for a grand Eid 2025 release.
