Salman Khan’s ‘Maatrubhumi’ Post Reignites Interest as Makers Deny CBFC Hold

The actor’s July 7 Instagram glimpse has pushed promotion forward while the production says the film has not been submitted for certification so no clearance delay exists.

Overview

  • Salman Khan posted scenic photos captioned “MAATRUBHUMI” on Tuesday, driving a fresh wave of fan questions about the film and its release timetable.
  • Salman Khan Films issued an official statement on July 4 saying reports that the Central Board of Film Certification had put the film’s clearance on hold were false and that the film has not yet been submitted for certification.
  • The project was renamed Maatrubhumi: May War Rest In Peace from Battle of Galwan and is directed by Apoorva Lakhia with Chitrangda Singh in a key role, and it is inspired by the 2020 Galwan Valley clash.
  • Theatrical release plans were postponed from an April date and no revised release date or formal certification update has been announced by the makers.
  • What to watch next: the production’s formal submission to the CBFC and any official release schedule from Salman Khan Films will determine when promotion escalates and when audiences can expect the film in cinemas.
