About Maatrubhumi

Maatrubhumi, which was first conceived as Battle of Galwan, was supposed to show the aftermath of the 2020–2021 China–India border skirmish. In that version, Salman had been cast as Colonel B Santosh Babu. But that version was changed later. The makers revised the story, changed the title and went back for reshoots, turning the film into its current version ahead of release.

What Salman Khan said about Maatrubhumi

At the trailer launch, Salman said the film is a story about soldiers and their families rather than a political statement.

He rejected suggestions of political pressure. “This narrative that we are going against China or that our government has pressured us to change the script or rewrite it…this is all nonsense. It’s not true at all.” He also explained what the film is trying to show. “We have made a film about soldiers and what they and their families go through. We have shown that side and this side too. So, there are no negative forces here. Only their circumstances are such. And for these soldiers, the nation comes first. They like each other, but when a situation arises, both sides try to resolve it,” Salman said.

Maatrubhumi will hit the screens on December 4, 2026.
