Mumbai was buzzing with excitement as the release of the highly-anticipated teaser for Sikandar was expected today, December 27. Fans were eagerly waiting to celebrate Salman Khan's 59th birthday with the first glimpse of the action-packed film. However, the plans had to be altered due to some unfortunate events.
On December 26, the nation mourned the loss of former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh. In light of this, the makers of Sikandar, directed by AR Murugadoss, decided to postpone the release of the teaser. It will now be unveiled online on December 28 at 11:07 AM, as announced by the official X handle of Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment.
A statement was released by the production house, expressing their regret for the delay. It read, "We are deeply saddened by the passing of our esteemed former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh Ji. In light of this, we have decided to postpone the release of the Sikandar teaser to 28th December at 11:07 AM."
Sikandar, produced by Sajid Nadiadwala and starring Salman Khan, has been creating a lot of buzz ever since its first-look poster was revealed on social media. The film is a perfect blend of action, drama, and emotion, making it one of the most-awaited projects of the year.
The Central government declared a seven-day national mourning period to honor the late former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh. The Ministry of Home Affairs notified all states and Union Territories to observe this period of mourning until January 1, 2025. The last rites of Dr. Singh will be conducted with full state honors.
The news of Dr. Singh's demise was confirmed by the hospital late Thursday night. The statement released by the hospital stated, "It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of former Prime Minister of India, Dr. Manmohan Singh, at the age of 92. He was undergoing treatment for age-related medical conditions and had a sudden loss of consciousness at home on December 26. Immediate resuscitative measures were taken, and he was rushed to AIIMS, but unfortunately, he could not be saved and was declared dead at 9:51 PM."
