Salman Khan is currently busy wrapping his upcoming war drama Battle of Galwan. While Salman had already wrapped up the shoot in December, it has been reported that the actor is back on the sets for an additional
shoot.
As per a source informed Bollywood Hungama, Salman Khan and the rest of the team are now finishing the patchwork of the film. “Salman Khan, director Apoorva Lakhia, and the team are doing patchwork for the film. At the same time, they’re also adding a few new scenes, some of which feature action. It’s a 15-day schedule,” the source shared.
While informing that the additional scenes were added after the makers and the superstar realised their importance, the source explained, “The patchwork was always intended to be done. The additional filming happened because the makers and Salman realised that those scenes are crucial to the narrative and that they would add to the impact. Salman doesn’t want to leave any stone unturned and wants to ensure that Battle of Galwan turns out to be a great experience for the viewers. Accordingly, he wholeheartedly agreed to the additional shoot.”
While there are changes to be made in the film, the source confirmed, “Thankfully, the makers also have time, since Battle of Galwan releases nearly three months away. They are confident that the final product will be ready well before its scheduled release on April 17.”
About the Film
Directed by Apoorva Lakhia, Battle of Galwan revisits the harrowing 2020 Galwan Valley clash between Indian and Chinese troops, a rare border skirmish that turned deadly without any firearms being used. Instead, soldiers resorted to hand-to-hand combat with sticks and stones, making it one of the most emotionally charged stories in recent Indian history.
With its stirring subject and powerful cast, Battle of Galwan is poised to be one of the most impactful cinematic tributes to India’s armed forces in recent years.
Amitabh Bachchan Also Part of Battle of Galwan?
Recently, filmmaker Apoorva Lakhia shared a few photos showing Bachchan on the sets of Battle of Galwan. The post only added fuel to the frenzy, with fans and gossip pages alike wondering if the Sholay icon had joined the cast. However, the filmmaker later clarified that Bachchan’s presence had nothing to do with the movie.
