Salman Khan’s new moustache look sparks buzz, is it for his Galwan movie?

Superstar Salman Khan has once again grabbed headlines with a new viral photo showing him in a completely different look. In the picture, Salman can be seen sporting a thick moustache, which has sparked curiosity among fans and media alike. Many believe this new look is part of his preparation for his next big project — a movie based on the Galwan Valley clash, directed by Apoorva Lakhia.

After the lukewarm response to his last film Sikandar, Salman seems determined to bounce back with a strong and meaningful role. According to reports, he will be playing the role of Colonel B. Santosh Babu — a real-life hero who led the 16 Bihar regiment during the intense clash with Chinese forces in Galwan Valley in 2020. This will be the first time Salman is playing a full-fledged role of an Indian Army officer in a feature film.

Fans are thrilled with the actor’s new moustache look. Many took to social media to express their excitement. One fan commented, “Salman Bhai is looking like a true soldier!” Another wrote, “This look reminds me of Sultan. It’s powerful and serious.” Others praised his commitment, especially considering his ongoing fitness transformation to look like a real army man.

Salman is currently following a strict workout routine and diet to get into perfect shape for the demanding role. He has played patriotic characters before in movies like Heroes and Jai Ho, but this is his first lead role based on a real-life military hero.

The movie is inspired by the book India’s Most Fearless 3, written by Shiv Aroor and Rahul Singh. Filming is expected to begin in July 2025. The movie will be shot in locations like Leh, Ladakh, and Mumbai. Salman will be joined by three younger actors, though the casting process is still ongoing.

Fans are eagerly waiting to see Salman Khan in this serious and inspiring role. With this project, Bhaijaan is not just aiming for a box office hit, but also a tribute to real-life heroes of the nation.
