Salman Khan’s action thriller Sikandar, released on March 30, 2025, has been a focal point for box office analysts, especially with its strategic Eid release aligning with the superstar’s legacy of festive blockbusters.
As of Wednesday, April 2, 2025, the film has completed its fourth day, and the Sikandar 4th Day Collection offers insight into its performance trajectory. Based on early estimates and available info, here’s a detailed box office income report for its fourth day:
India Net Collection (Day 4)
Early estimates from industry tracker Sacnilk indicate that Sikandar earned approximately ₹11-12 crore net on its fourth day. This marks a significant drop from its Day 3 collection of ₹23.01 crore net, a decline consistent with the expected post-Eid slump on a weekday.
India Gross Collection
Applying a standard gross multiplier (inclusive of taxes), the Day 4 gross collection in India is projected to be around ₹13-14 crore.
Worldwide Collection
While precise overseas figures for Day 4 are yet to be fully reported, the trend from prior days (e.g., ₹11.80 crore overseas gross on Day 2) suggests an overseas contribution of ₹5-6 crore. This places the worldwide gross for Day 4 at approximately ₹18-20 crore.
Total India Net (4 Days)
The film’s cumulative India net collection after four days is as follows: Day 1 at ₹30.06 crore, Day 2 at ₹33.36 crore, Day 3 at ₹23.01 crore, and Day 4 estimated at ₹11-12 crore. This brings the total India net to roughly ₹97.43-98.43 crore.
Total Worldwide Gross (4 Days)
Factoring in overseas earnings, Sikandar’s worldwide gross collection by the end of Day 4 is estimated to range between ₹125-130 crore.
Performance Overview
Sikandar, which hit theatres on March 30, 2025, kicked off with a solid ₹30.06 crore net in India, followed by a slight increase to ₹33.36 crore on Day 2, boosted by the Eid holiday on March 31. However, collections dipped to ₹23.01 crore on Day 3 (April 1), with a further decline on Day 4 (April 2), reflecting a typical weekday drop post-festivities.
The film’s occupancy on April 2 stood at 10.77% for Hindi shows, with morning shows at a mere 5.29%, afternoon at 11.67%, evening at 15.35%, and night shows nearly negligible. This sharp fall in audience turnout underscores the post-Eid slowdown.
Despite crossing ₹100 crore worldwide in its first two days (with the makers claiming ₹105.89 crore), Sikandar’s performance has been deemed underwhelming compared to Salman Khan’s previous Eid triumphs like Tiger 3 (₹53.3 crore opening) or Sultan (₹36.54 crore opening).
Factors Influencing Day 4
- Post-Eid Drop: The Eid holiday surge on Day 2 failed to carry forward, with regular weekdays reducing footfalls.
- Mixed Reviews: Negative critical reception, including 2/5 stars from Times of India and 2 stars from Taran Adarsh, coupled with poor word-of-mouth, has likely hampered its momentum.
- Piracy Impact: An HD leak of the film prior to its release may have further eroded its earnings potential.
Final Thoughts
While Sikandar is poised to surpass ₹95 crore net in India by Day 4, its current trajectory suggests it may fall short of Salman Khan’s ambitious ₹200 crore prediction made during promotions. The film’s staying power will be tested over the first full weekend and beyond, especially with no significant competition until mid-April.
Final figures may adjust slightly once official numbers are released, but these estimates offer a clear picture of the Sikandar 4th Day Collection on April 2, 2025.
