Salman Khan and Apoorva Lakhia partnered for their first work together on Battle of Galwan which is a war drama that depicts the Galwan valley clash between India and China.

The Ministry of Defence directed Salman and his crew to create a fictional film after the two countries experienced numerous changes during the movie production.

"The present officials didn't want to tamper with the equations between India and China. They requested Salman to reshoot the film and add a fictional spin to the story. Salman respected their decision and instantly reshot around 40 per cent of the film adding more romance and a backstory to his character. The film was submitted to the board for approval post the reshoot with a new title Maatrubhumi," a source shared.

Howeveron the latest news there seems to be another serious problem for the upcoming part 2 and that is, it certainly won't be coming in May as stated.

"Salman was keen to bring Maatrubhumi on May 15. But the troubles with Censor and approval make it an impossible task now. The war drama could now be released in June subject to the required approvals."

Salman will begin shooting actor Dil Raju's unnamed movie by mid April 2023 and intends to complete the film for release during the first quarter of 2027. He is losing weight for the film and is excited to sport a completely new look for the Vamshi directorial. The actor has a project which involves the Raj DK retired superhero film that will start production in August.

Salman stands as one of the strongest cinematic personalities who ever existed in Indian Cinema while film insiders believe he will discover a solution to the upcoming release of Matrubhoomi.
