Bollywood’s beloved Bhaijaan, Salman Khan, made his grand return to the silver screen this Eid with Sikandar, an action-packed drama helmed by A.R. Murugadoss. The film was highly anticipated for two major reasons—Salman’s return to action and his fresh pairing with National Crush, Rashmika Mandanna. However, despite the hype, Sikandar failed to impress many, receiving mixed to negative early reviews. Rashmika, in particular, was criticized as the ‘weakest link’ in the film.

Salman Refuses to Repeat the Korean Heart Pose
However, in a recent promotional interview, Salman made it clear that he won’t be repeating the gesture. When asked about the viral video, Salman said, “Yeah, but I’m not going to do this anymore.” A surprised Rashmika questioned, “Why?” to which Salman replied, “Four people after that have asked me to do this. Doesn’t suit me.”
Rashmika, laughing, tried to change his mind, saying, “No, the kids are going to love it! They’ll think it’s adorable and enjoy seeing this side of you.” Despite her efforts, Salman remained firm on his decision.
Though Sikandar may not have met expectations, Salman and Rashmika’s off-screen bond has surely won over audiences.
