Bollywood superstar Salman Khan has begun shooting for his much-anticipated film Battle of Galwan.
He shared a picture on Instagram in which he can be seen in a military uniform.
The movie, directed by Apoorva Lakhia, is based on the Galwan Valley clashes at the India-China border in 2020.
Twenty Indian soldiers died during the Galwan Valley clash on June 16, 2020, while the Chinese side also faced heavy casualties.
Following the clashes, tensions between India and China rose, with the army deploying formations near the Galwan Valley, along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) in Ladakh, and undertaking a range of activities such as surveying border areas to stop possible Chinese aggression.
Since the clashes, India and China have disengaged from various border areas steadily and have also created a buffer zone in various areas.
Actor Chitrangda Singh has been paired opposite Salman in the film. In July, director Apoorva Lakhia shared the update via a press note.
In the first week of July, Salman took to social media and announced the project by unveiling a motion poster.
