Salman Khan announces shootingTwo days ago, the actor shared on social media that the film’s shooting had started. The post showed him standing behind a clapperboard with the title ‘Battle of Galwan.’ The movie, directed by Apoorva Lakhia, is about the 2020 Galwan Valley clash between India and China.Salman talks about physical challengesEarlier, Khan spoke with news agency PTI about how challenging the film is physically. He said, "It is physically demanding. Every year, every month, every day it gets more and more difficult. I’ve to give more time now (for training). Earlier, I would do it (train) in one or two weeks; now I’m running, kicking, punching, and all that stuff. This film demands that.”Recent film failures‘Battle of Galwan’ has a lot of expectations because some of Salman Khan’s recent big films did not do well. ‘Tiger 3’ and ‘Sikandar,’ released earlier this year, were not successful at the box office. There were talks about Salman working with Sooraj Barjatya again on an action film, but Barjatya said the project is cancelled.
