Chitrangda Singh on collaborating with Salman Khan for Battle of Galwan: “Salman Khan remained true to his word”
Reflecting on her long-awaited on-screen collaboration with Salman Khan, Chitrangda shared, “It feels incredibly special to be a part of Galwan. Few years ago, there was a remake of a Marathi project where I was supposed to work alongside Mr Khan, directed by Mahesh Manjrekar. Unfortunately, the film never went on floors. I still remember Mr Khan saying there is always a next time to work together. After all these years, like he says, ‘Ek baar maine commitment kar di, toh main apne aap ki bhi nahin sunta,’ and true to his word, he honoured that commitment.”
Chitrangda also spoke about director Apoorva Lakhia’s decision to cast her in the film. “He could’ve cast any big star, but he placed his trust in my craft. I truly appreciate his faith in me and I’m proud to be part of a story as significant and powerful as the Battle of Galwan,” she added.
For Chitrangda, the role holds personal relevance. Coming from an army background, her father is a retired army colonel, she grew up hearing stories related to military life and patriotism.
Battle of Galwan focuses on the events surrounding the clash in Galwan Valley and features a cast led by Salman Khan and Chitrangda Singh.
