Salman Khan’s Battle of Galwan: Amitabh Bachchan Not Involved

The upcoming war drama, Battle of Galwan, featuring Salman Khan, has generated significant interest since its announcement. Recent speculation regarding a potential appearance by legendary actor Amitabh Bachchan was sparked by a photograph shared by director Apoorva Lakhia. However, Lakhia has now confirmed that Bachchan will not be part of the film.

The speculation began when Lakhia posted a picture on his Instagram Stories with Bachchan, captioning it with a playful inquiry about what the actor might be saying. This led fans to wonder if Bachchan would make a cameo or have a substantial role in the film. In a statement to Hindustan Times, Lakhia clarified, “No. He was shooting for a commercial in the opposite studio, so I went to meet him and said hello.”

This clarification puts an end to the excitement surrounding Bachchan’s involvement. Lakhia and Bachchan have previously collaborated on projects such as Ek Ajnabee (2005) and Mumbai Se Aaya Mera Dost (2003). Notably, the last time Bachchan shared the screen with Salman was in God Tussi Great Ho (2008), marking a 17-year gap.
