From Amitabh’s angry young man to Salman’s righteous warrior, Bollywood has seen many types of masculinity.
Animal introduced a darker, rawer version—one that Salman’s characters have never been. His heroes fight for justice, respect women and family values. Sikandar seems to be reinforcing that very image.

Animal is breaking records, darker characters are in demand. But they also get flak for glorifying toxic masculinity.
Sikandar might be Salman’s way of offering an alternative—an alpha who fights with honor not chaos. Whether intentional or not it’s a smart contrast.

Two alphas, two different ideologies—who will the audience side with? One thing’s for sure, this debate isn’t going away anytime soon.
