Abbas Zafar Praises Salman Khan's Fan Power After Battle Of Galwan Motion Poster Goes Viral
Salman Khan's fierce new avatar in the motion poster of Battle of Galwan has taken fans by storm.
Salman Khan has once again seized the spotlight, this time with the electrifying unveiling of the motion poster for his upcoming film Battle of Galwan. Set amidst the brutal, icy terrain of Ladakh, the film will bring to life one of India's most unforgettable military standoffs — a high-altitude confrontation fought without a single bullet being fired.
The motion poster, released earlier this week, reveals Khan in a striking new avatar — a bloodied yet unbreakable army officer, eyes blazing with quiet fury and resilience. Backed by a haunting and powerful score, the first look evokes intense emotion and pride, hinting at the gravity and heroism that the film intends to capture.
Directed by Ali Abbas Zafar, the film marks another chapter in the successful creative partnership between the filmmaker and Salman Khan, following hits like Sultan and Bharat. Speaking about Salman's larger-than-life persona and his unique connection with audiences, Zafar said, 'Sagar khamoshi me sagar hi rehta hai… lehron se kehta hai woh zinda hai… he has the most earnest and powerful fan base." His words underline the actor's ability to move masses not just with his stardom but with the emotion and integrity he brings to the screen.
Battle of Galwan is already being dubbed as one of the most anticipated films in Salman Khan's illustrious career. Its subject — a tribute to the indomitable courage and restraint of Indian soldiers stationed in some of the world's most treacherous conditions — sets it apart from conventional war dramas. Unlike most tales of battle, this film chooses to honor a moment of conflict where valor wasn't measured in gunfire, but in grit, endurance, and human spirit.
The release date for Battle of Galwan has yet to be announced, but the buzz is undeniable. With its compelling narrative, emotional depth, and Salman Khan's magnetic screen presence, the film is poised to strike a powerful chord with audiences across the country.

When Salman Khan openly said no to intimate scenes and horror films: 'No sex..., i get scared of...'
When Salman Khan openly said no to intimate scenes and horror films: 'No sex..., i get scared of...' In a career spanning over three decades, Salman Khan has dominated Bollywood with his commanding screen presence and widespread appeal. From wacky comedies like Judwa and Partner , to fully-romantic dramas like Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam , and of course his power-pact action films, all have truly solidified his status as a superstar. However, Salman has purposely stayed away from two genres: explicit films and horror. When Salman Khan openly talked about his 'no kiss, no horror' policy Earlier, in an interview with Rediff, the actor had candidly revealed that he wouldn't be comfortable in doing intimate scenes or horror films. 'No. I get scared of horror films,' He admitted that he never himself explored this genre. Summing up with his trademark honesty, the actor said, 'No sex yet, no horror yet.' Another widely discussed aspect of his on-screen persona is his 'no-kissing' rule. Unlike other stars of his generation, Khan has consistently refused to do kissing scenes on-screen, regardless the role demands or other narrative requirements. What Salman Khan said about his 'no-kiss' policy on The Kapil Sharma Show? His long-standing commitment even became a topic on The Kapil Sharma Show, when he appeared with his brothers Sohail Khan and Arbaaz Khan. Kapil teased him about his no-kiss policy to which Salman humorously responded, 'Dekho kiss toh main karta nahi screen pe toh mujhe toh koi farak padta nai.' While some claim that Khan broke his policy for Karisma Kapoor in Jeet (1996). However, some state that it was only a chin kiss and not a proper kissing sequence. Salman reportedly refused to film a kissing scene with Katrina Kaif for Tiger Zinda Hai (2017) Meanwhile, Salman Khan will next appear in Apoorva Lakhia's Battle of Galwan. The film is based on Galwan Valley clash, a deadly fight between Indian and Chinese soldiers in Ladakh on June 15, 2020. The actor is expected to play the role of Colonel B Santosh Babu, the martyred hero who led the 16 Bihar regiment during the battle.
