Chitrangda Singh has joined the cast of Salman Khan’s upcoming film ‘Battle of Galwan’. The actor marks her debut in the Salman Khan film universe with the upcoming movie.
Speaking exclusively to India Today, she shared that the project also holds a very personal space for her. Coming from an army background, her father is a retired army colonel, and she grew up hearing stories of courage, sacrifice, and patriotism.
and her earliest memory of meeting Salman Khan, Chitrangda says, “I remember how coincidentally, I was shooting at a studio in Mumbai, right next to where Mr. Khan was working. We happened to cross paths and ended up chatting about our respective projects. During that brief but meaningful conversation, he encouraged me to explore more commercial and challenging roles, and he genuinely appreciated the kind of work I was doing and my approach to acting.”
She continued, “That interaction stayed with me. It gave me the confidence to take a leap when I was approached for ‘Battle of Galwan’ – a grounded, intense role that I may have hesitated to accept earlier. Sometimes, all it takes is a moment like that to shift your perspective.”
and Salman has been prepping for the film by getting physically ready for the film. He’s been working out with a trainer to lose weight and also increase muscle mass.
