Being Salman

Bollywood fans have started counting days for Salman Khan’s forthcoming movie “Sikandar” to be released this Eid. The film has already created excitement with its songs and dance moves. Fans of Salman are waiting to see their star on the screen after a little gap. This is a typical Salman film. The film also has national hearthrob Rashmika Mandanna in it. People have high expectations also because of A.R.Murugadoss, who is known for making blockbuster films like “Ghajini” with Aamir Khan.

But of late, Bollywood films have not been able to strike a chord with the audience. So film critics and financial groups are bothered about Bollywood films not doing very well barring a few. Therefore, I feel, “Sikandar” will have a tough time definitely. Let’s see how the film goes with the audience this Eid. But I am sure come what may, Salman has his own strong and loyal fan base and they will root for their actor. Though, I am a Salman fan but I am waiting for the release of his film. I am curious to know how Salman and Murugadoss come up in this film. I want to see how Murugadoss manages to sail with his film.

Naseem Zaidi,
