On March 5, 2026, Bollywood superstar Salman Khan was spotted in a positive mood on the sets of his upcoming magnum opus, Battle of Galwan. The actor’s appearance brought a sigh of relief to fans, as it follows a week of concern regarding the health of his father, veteran screenwriter Salim Khan, who is currently recovering from a minor medical procedure.
The film, directed by Vishnuvardhan and produced by Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions, is one of the most anticipated releases of 2026, featuring Salman in the role of a high-ranking Indian Army officer.
