Mumbai, March 18 – The makers of Sikandar on Tuesday finally unveiled the new dance number “Sikandar Naache,” which showcases swag, style, and Dabke moves. The track takes things up a notch with its swag-filled hook steps, popularly known as the ‘Dabke’ dance form, along with a larger-than-life setup. Dabke is a traditional Levantine folk dance that originates in countries such as Lebanon, Syria, and Jordan, among many others. It is a highly rhythmic, communal dance usually performed at weddings and celebrations.
Salman took to Instagram, where he shared the music video of the song and wrote: “#SikandarNaache Out Now.” The hip-swaying track is a visual treat, with Salman owning the screen with his signature style and dance moves, while Rashmika adds extra spice and grace to the energetic number. The music video features a stunning backdrop, and the inclusion of special dancers from Turkey adds a unique flair to the already electrifying sequence.
The choreography for “Sikandar Naache” is by Ahmed Khan, with the Turkish dancers adding an additional spark to the performance. The song is composed by Siddhant Miishhraa, while Sameer’s lyrics add depth and flair to every beat. Amit Mishra, Akasa, and Siddhant Miishhraa have lent their vocal talents to the track. This song reunites superstar Salman Khan, producer Sajid Nadiadwala, and choreographer Ahmed Khan, following their successful collaboration on the blockbuster “Jumme Ki Raat” from Kick, which was released in 2014.
Talking about the previous track “Zohra Jabeen,” the song was choreographed by Farah Khan and marked her reunion with Salman after several years. Sharing her excitement on the collaboration, Farah had said that she goes a long way with both the “Dabangg” star and producer Sajid Nadiadwala. Farah knew “Zohra Jabeen” would be a “smash hit.”
Sikandar marks Salman Khan’s highly anticipated return to the big screen after more than a year. The actor was last seen in the 2023 action-packed film Tiger 3. Directed by A.R. Murugadoss, Sikandar features a star-studded cast, including Rashmika Mandanna, Kajal Aggarwal, Sathyaraj, Sharman Joshi, and Prateik Babbar. Sikandar will be released on the occasion of Eid on March 31.
