On December 27, 2025, Salman Khan turned 60, and the teaser of his upcoming war drama The Battle of Galwan was released the same day. The teaser quickly sparked discussion around your expectations and the film’s box office potential.
Directed by Apoorva Lakhia, The Battle of Galwan draws inspiration from the 2020 Galwan Valley clash between Indian and Chinese troops. You see a focus on hand-to-hand combat, sticks, and raw confrontation rather than stylised war visuals.
While trade circles raised doubts about its commercial strength, Bollywood trade analyst Rohit Jaiswal listed eight strong factors backing the film. He shared these points on his X handle, explaining why the film can still surprise at the box office.
He pointed out that the film secured a prime release date on April 17, 2026. This places it nearly three to four weeks after major releases like Dhurandhar 2 and Toxic, giving it clear breathing space in theatres.
According to the analyst, the teaser left a positive impression on many reviewers. You can notice a fresh tone in the visuals, and Salman Khan appears more energetic and focused compared to his recent films.
The subject also adds relevance, considering the ongoing India-China tensions. This angle gives you something serious to engage with and increases curiosity around the film’s narrative.
Rohit Jaiswal predicts a box office collection of around Rs 200 to 250 crore. That figure stands out because the film has been made on a relatively modest budget.
Despite favourable external factors, the analyst flagged one key concern. You will expect the film and its script to fully live up to the buzz created by the teaser.
After the teaser dropped, social media saw mixed reactions. While some users trolled Salman for his looks and expressions, others praised his effort, energy, and commitment at the age of 60.
The Battle of Galwan holds major importance for Salman’s career. Trade analysts feel he needs a strong comeback film to reinforce his star value in the industry.
As things stand, this war drama remains one of the most closely watched films of the coming year. Its performance will likely shape how audiences view Salman’s future projects.
