Amid death threats, actor Salman Khan has returned to Hyderabad’s iconic Taj Falaknuma Palace to shoot for his upcoming film Sikandar. He jets off to Hyderabad to continue the next phase of shooting at the location.
Hyderabad’s Taj Falaknuma Palace, known for its regal architecture and rich history, serves as the backdrop for some key scenes in Sikandar. A video circulating on social media captures the palace’s courtyard and exteriors adorned with fairy lights, creating a magical setting for the shoot. Salman Khan’s connection to this location dates back to 2014 when his sister, Arpita Khan, married actor Aayush Sharma at the palace, making it a memorable venue for him and his family.
Meanwhile, the film revolves around a young street-smart boy who becomes a reluctant hero in his quest to protect his town from a villain. The role of the antagonist is portrayed by Sathyaraj, who rose to fame for his performance in the blockbuster Baahubali.
The film has been directed by AR Murugadoss and features Rashmika Mandanna, Suniel Shetty, and Kajal Aggarwal in key roles. Following the Hyderabad schedule, the team of Sikandar is expected to continue filming in Mumbai until the end of November.
The filmmakers have also planned a European schedule for later in the year to film two romantic tracks, rounding out the film’s narrative with diverse settings. Produced by Sajid Nadiadwala, Sikandar is set for release during Eid in 2025.
