AR Murugadoss recently opened up about his upcoming Salman Khan actioner Sikandar and said that it is not a remake but an original story. It also stars Rashmika Mandanna and Satyaraj in pivotal roles.

Speaking about the film, the director said, "This is a completely original story. Every scene, every frame of Sikandar has been designed and executed with authenticity, offering a fresh narrative and experience. It’s not a remake or adaptation of any existing film.”

He added, “An essential part of the film's originality is its stunning background score, crafted by the immensely talented Santosh Narayanan. His music perfectly complements the film’s energetic tone and vibrant visuals, adding an emotional depth that enhances every scene.”

Sikandar features music composed by Pritam. Its teaser was unveiled recently giving a glimpse into over-the-top action and power-packed dialogues. Produced by Sajid Nadiadwala, the film will be released in theatres on Eid this year.
