The much-awaited trailer of Maatrubhumi: May War Rest in Peace, starring Salman Khan, has been released. Directed by Apoorva Lakhia, the film is inspired by the 2020 clashes between Indian and Chinese soldiers in the Galwan Valley. The trailer gives a glimpse of the intense border conflict while also showing the personal life of a soldier who puts his country’s safety above everything else.
Salman plays a soldier from the 16 Bihar Regiment. The trailer presents two different sides of his character. On one hand, he is seen facing difficult situations on the battlefield and fighting to protect the country. On the other, the film shows him as a caring husband and father who shares a close bond with his family. These emotional moments bring a personal side to the story, which otherwise focuses on the challenges faced by soldiers at the border.
Chitrangada Singh plays Salman’s wife in the film. Her character adds an important family angle to the story, showing the emotional side of a soldier’s life away from the battlefield.

The music has been composed by Himesh Reshammiya, Ravi Basrur and Ayan Lal, while Fasahat Khan is in charge of cinematography. Several songs, including the title track Maatrubhumi, Main Hoon, Chand Dekh Loon and Jai Hind, have already been released.
