Our verdict
Sikandar is a straightforward action drama with Salman Khan as a man pushed into fighting corruption after a tragedy. The 133-minute runtime and supporting cast including Rashmika Mandanna and Sathyaraj give it enough weight, though the familiar revenge-against-greed setup may feel routine. It works best for viewers who enjoy Khan's screen presence and director A. R. Murugadoss's action style.
