About Salman's films

This comes as Salman is busy shooting for his next film, the upcoming war drama Battle of Galwan. Directed by Apoorva Lakhia, the film is based on the 2020 Galwan Valley conflict between India and China. In an earlier interview with news agency PTI, the actor called the film "physically demanding."

"It is physically demanding. Every year, every month, every day it gets more and more difficult. I've to give more time now (for training). Earlier, I would do it (train) in one or two weeks; now I'm running, kicking, punching, and all that stuff. This film demands that," he had said.

"For instance, in Sikandar, the action was different, the character was different. But this is physically difficult. Besides, shooting in Ladakh, in high altitude and in cold water (is another challenge)," he had added.

Salman was last seen in Sikandar, which released in March. It was directed by AR Murugadoss. The film also featured Rashmika Mandanna, Kajal Aggarwal, Prateik Smita Patil, and Anjini Dhawan. Salman is currently hosting the reality show Bigg Boss 19, which premiered on August 24 on JioHotstar.
