Salman Khan's Maatrubhumi Cleared by Government After Revisions, Awaiting Certification

Salman Khan's Maatrubhumi Cleared by Government After Revisions, Awaiting CertificationPreviousNext

Salman Khan's war drama Maatrubhumi, originally titled Battle of Galwan and based on the India-China Galwan clash, has received a No Objection Certificate from the Information and Broadcasting Ministry after significant changes. The film underwent reshoots following Defence Ministry concerns about its initial anti-China stance and now portrays India-China relations more positively. Awaiting certification from the Central Board of Film Certification, the makers are reportedly targeting a November 13 release, post-Diwali, though this date is not yet confirmed.
