Allu Arjun's Pushpa 2, which released in December 2024, emerged as one of the biggest blockbusters of recent time. Salman Khan's Sikandar lagged far behind the opening collections of Pushpa 2.

Salman Khan's Eid release opened to average reviews. Film critic Saibal Chatterjee gave the film two out of 5 stars and wrote, "The bloated actioner, which alternates between Rajkot and Mumbai, also aspires to be Salman Khan's version of Jawan. It opens too many fronts for its own good and ends up fluffing its lines.
