The trailer launch also gave Salman a chance to address all the rumours surrounding the film. There had been reports of delays, reshoots and alleged issues with government clearances. But Salman was quick to dismiss them. Calling the reports “bakwas", the actor said that the film is about soldiers and their families, and there is no hidden agenda behind it.
“Bakwas hai. It’s not true at all. Humne picture banayi hai soldiers ke upar, on what they go through, what their families go through. Isme koi negative forces nahi hai. Bas haalaat hai negative," he said.
The film was earlier titled Battle of Galwan and is inspired by the India-China clash in the Galwan Valley in June 2020. The project has been in the news for its subject and changes to its release schedule.
