Nov 10, 2026

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], November 11 : The makers of Salman Khan-starrer 'Maatrubhumi: May War Rest in Peace' unveiled the much-awaited trailer of the film, offering a glimpse into an intense war drama inspired by the 2020 Galwan Valley clash. 
The trailer introduces Salman in a commanding Army avatar as Colonel Bikkumalla Santosh Babu, who led the 16 Bihar Regiment during the Galwan Valley clash. Sporting a rugged look and dressed in an Army uniform, the actor is seen leading his troops through a tense border confrontation, taking on the enemy in intense action sequences and hand-to-hand combat.
From war scenes to exploring the emotional realities and the sacrifices made by soldiers and their families, the trailer offers glimpses of the lives behind the uniforms, where every goodbye carries uncertainty and every moment spent with loved ones becomes precious.
Moving beyond the battlefield, the narrative highlights how war leaves an impact on people on both sides of the conflict, claiming lives, separating families and leaving behind pain that extends far beyond the fighting. 
Salman Khan makes a commanding impression with his action-packed portrayal of an Army officer, while his on-screen chemistry with Chitrangda Singh adds an emotional dimension to the story. 
Sharing the trailer in on X, Salman wrote,  "Aaj release karoon ya kal? Jo kal kare so aaj kar, Jo aaj kare so ab. Enjoy the trailer….."
