Salman Khan is deep in the mountains of Ladakh right now, hard at work on his next big film, Battle of Galwan.
In the war drama, he takes on the role of Colonel Bikumalla Santosh Babu — a real-life hero whose story holds immense emotional weight. As excitement builds around the film, new pictures of Salman from the set have taken the internet by storm.
A fan recently posted photos on X, showing Salman in full military gear, posing warmly with local residents and army personnel. The actor’s striking new look — rugged, intense, and entirely transformed — has quickly gone viral. And it’s easy to see why.
There’s something raw and powerful about the way he’s carrying this role.

Adding to the buzz, Salman also shared a behind-the-scenes photo himself. He’s only partially visible behind a clapperboard, dressed in uniform, with a blood mark on his face and a steely look in his eyes. It’s a simple image, but it says a lot. He captioned it, “#BattleOfGalwan,” letting the visual do all the talking.
According to a report by India Today, the team is now diving into one of the most crucial parts of the film — the climactic scenes, which they’ll be filming across Leh and Ladakh over the next few weeks.
A source revealed, “Galwan’s climax is among the most important parts of the film, both visually and emotionally. Given Leh and Ladakh’s unpredictable weather, the makers want to ensure the quality of these sequences is not compromised. That is why they are planning to complete as much as possible during this schedule itself."
Salman Khan posted his movie appearance on Instagram two days ago. He wore a full military uniform, had a tough beard, and had a fierce, determined face that radiated patriotism.
The captivating avatar is already generating a lot of buzz among fans, which heightens their anticipation for the impactful story that will unfold.
He captioned the post as, "#BattleofGalwan."
Salman Khan's depiction of the Battle of Galwan is expected as to be one of his most moving and patriotic roles, highlighting a period of recent history made by incredible bravery in the face of incredible hardship.
