Sikandar failed to meet expectations at the box office. Despite a festive release, a big star cast and a well known director but the film ended up as a major flop.
Recently Rashmika spoke openly about the film making and revealed that the script was changed during the film shoot.
Rashmika said the story she first heard from Murugadoss was very different from what finally came on screen.
She explained that such changes are common in films as many factors influence the final version. Actor performances, editing, audience expectations and release timing often lead to script changes.
Rashmika also said directors usually modify scenes after seeing how they work on set or during editing. Although Sikandar created strong buzz as her first film with Salman Khan and the final product failed to impress audiences, leading to poor box office results.
SIKANDAR SCRIPT CHANGED DURING THE MAKING.
