Sikandar Ka Muqaddar

Overall, Sikandar Ka Muqaddar is a light, one-time-watch film. It relies on the mystery factor and fails to use talented actors to their full potential.

Not a typical chor-police film and never once will you feel frustrated because it is filled with wicked twists and turns.

Sikandar Ka Muqaddar is smartly packaged. What it needed more of was novelty in the matter of what it crams into its bag of contrived tricks.

For viewers seeking a nuanced, edge-of-your-seat thriller, this film might feel underwhelming.

Despite flashes of brilliance, Sikandar Ka Muqaddar fails to fully capitalize on its potential. The tension wanes as the story progresses, and the twists arrive too late to redeem the sluggish pacing.

All in all, this film is a good one-time watch. However, we just wished that it could rise above the limitations and be more taut to turn into a heist thriller rather than drama.

Neeraj Pandey has written an intelligent story which keeps the audience engrossed completely because it prompts them to keep thinking and playing the guessing game. The screenplay, penned by Neeraj Pandey and Vipul K.

Being on OTT means you can junk big stars in the pursuit of good story-telling. Or that’s what it was supposed to mean, before the streamers also got sucked into vacuous starry propositions with zero results.
