While it looks tough for Salman’s Sikandar to achieve this accolade, the film’s release date will heavily impact its first-day collections.
If the film aims for a traditional release on March 28 (Friday), it is expected to earn around 60-70 crores on the first day worldwide.
However, this number jumps to 75-80 crores if the film releases on March 30th (Sunday) on Eid.
It remains to be seen if the film will be able to achieve the unthinkable and give Salman his first film to join the 100-crore club on its first day.
