Sikandar is coming on Eid on March 30, 2025. AR Murugadoss film has action, emotions and repeat value.
But here’s the catch—2 hours 20 minutes isn’t that short for a big film? Is Sikandar just another mass entertainer or there is more to it?

First half is 1 hour 15 minutes and second half is 1 hour 5 minutes. Compare that to films like Jawan (2h 49m) or KGF 2 (2h 48m) and Sikandar feels much shorter.
Murugadoss promises a tight narrative with authenticity and a “surprise element” like Ghajini. But can a shorter runtime give a big cinematic experience?

Sometimes shorter films work better. Vikram (2h 15m) and Mad Max: Fury Road (2h) were crisp and intense.

A Salman Khan Eid release is big deal. Expectations are high—fans want mass action, emotions and grandness.
If the film delivers on all fronts, runtime won’t matter. But if it feels light, some will walk away disappointed.
Trailer drops on March 22 or 23 and we will get to see Sikandar. Will it prove all the doubters wrong? Or is it just another commercial film?
