From Battle of Galwan to Maatrubhumi
Initially, Salman Khan’s film was titled ‘Battle of Galwan’, and it was scheduled to release on April 17, 2026. However, it was reported that there were additional shoots and production delays that resulted in the postponement of release. Recently, the makers rebranded the project as Maatrubhumi due to current diplomatic sensitivity between India and China, as it added a fresh identity to this high-profile war drama.
Few promotional assets have been unveiled, but the official release of the new Salman Khan movie is yet to be confirmed. This has led to growing curiosity among fans, who have been actively seeking updates on social media.
Why May 15 Is Under Consideration
According to sources, the additional shoot for the film Maatrubhumi is now complete, and the film is almost ready. Keeping this in mind, the makers are considering the possibility of releasing the film earlier instead of delaying the project further.
May 15 is now being considered as the most likely date because the window is relatively clear. The film was earlier expected to release between July and October 2026. However, the window is already filled with other big-budget releases, and hence, the window is not as favorable as the other date.
Independence Day Slot Ruled Out
Earlier, the makers had considered releasing the film Maatrubhumi around the Independence Day slot. However, the slot is now ruled out because the Independence Day slot is already booked by another big project related to the actor Aamir Khan, related to the film Lahore 1947.
