Maatrubhumi

On the work front, Salman Khan will be next seen in the upcoming movie Maatrubhumi. It also stars Chitrangada Singh.

The film was earlier titled Battle of Galwan, and said to be based on the real life clash in Galwan Valley between India and China.

However, references to China and the Galwan Valley were reportedly removed from the film later due to a controversy.

Bollywood Hungama reported that the changes in the film was made as per the direction from the Ministry of Defence.

“Earlier, the film was inspired by a real event. But as per the request of the Ministry of Defence, Salman Khan and director Apoorva Lakhia reshot the film by adding a fictional spin to the story. Accordingly, he reshot nearly 40% of the film as he added some romantic scenes, backstory, etc. The makers submitted the new cut, hoping that they would get the NOC. But the Ministry still has apprehensions,” a source told the portal.

Reportedly, the Ministry requested to not mention China in the film at all. The source added, “One of the requests to Salman Khan is that China shouldn’t be mentioned in the film. This was communicated to the makers in advance. The cut of Maatrubhumi, which was submitted earlier this month, has no mention of China.”
