“Sajid Nadiadwala was on the lookout for a fresh pairing as the script demands that at the writing level. He narrated the subject to Rashmika and the actress was excited by not just her part, but also the overall approach of AR Murugadoss and Sajid Nadiadwala to mount the film,” earlier a source revealed to PinkVilla.
As per the source, Sikandar is a lot more than just an action film. “There’s a strong story that results in an outflow of drama and emotions. The wholesomeness that the script has to offer is what has excited both Salman and Rashmika for the film, and the duo is all excited to take it on floors in June,” the source added.
According to the source, it’s a very well-written author-backed role for Rashmika, playing a key catalyst in the conflict of the tale.

Rashmika has a strong line-up of films in her kitty which include Pushpa 2 alongside Allu Arjun, Chavva with Vicky Kausal , Kubera with Dhanush and The Girlfriend.
