Salman Khan Transforms for ‘Battle of Galwan’: A Tribute to Valor in Leh-Ladakh

Bollywood megastar Salman Khan is set to portray Colonel B. Santosh Babu in the upcoming patriotic drama Battle of Galwan, directed by Apoorva Lakhia.

The film, based on the 2020 Galwan Valley clash between Indian and Chinese forces, is currently being shot in the rugged terrains of Leh-Ladakh.

Salman’s striking physical transformation—marked by a leaner frame and disciplined fitness regime—has already caught fans’ attention.

He’s reportedly ditched oily and fatty foods and hired a personal trainer to prepare for the demanding shoot in high-altitude conditions.

The teaser has sparked excitement, with fans eager to see Salman return to an action-packed role. Viral images from the set show him in jeans and a blue shirt, standing confidently before the camera crew.

Joining him on screen are Chitrangada Singh, Jian Shu, Ankur Bhatia, and Harshil Shah. While the production team has remained tight-lipped, social media buzz confirms that filming is underway.

Industry analysts predict the Battle of Galwan could be a box office juggernaut, blending Salman’s star power with a story of national pride and sacrifice.
