Bollywood enthusiasts have reason to be excited as reports suggest that iconic actor Amitabh Bachchan has joined the cast of Salman Khan’s upcoming film, Battle of Galwan. Speculation intensified after director Apoorva Lakhia posted a behind-the-scenes moment with Bachchan on Instagram Stories, describing him as a “legend on set today.”

If confirmed, this collaboration would bring together two of Bollywood’s most celebrated stars, Amitabh Bachchan and Salman Khan, who haven’t worked together on a major project in years. The news has generated considerable buzz on social media, with fans eagerly anticipating the pairing of these industry giants. Adding to the film’s appeal, veteran actor Govinda is also rumored to be part of the cast.

The film features Chitrangda Singh in the female lead role, with supporting performances from Abhilash Chaudhary, Ankur Bhatia, Vipin Bhardwaj, Abhishree Sen, Nirbhay Chaudhary, Siddharth Mooley, and Zeyn Shaw. Under the direction of Apoorva Lakhia, the film is being positioned as a patriotic action drama with high production values.
