Only months away from release Salman Khan’s Battle Of Galwan directed by Apoorva Lakhia has undergone a change of title. It is now called Maatrubhumi to give it a wider patriotic perspective.
The decision was taken unilaterally by producer-actor Salman who felt Battle Of Galwan to be a self-limiting title.
Sharing the reason why Salman changed the title, a source said, “It felt like an incident-specific title whereas Salman wanted the title to suggest a more epic landscape. The decision to change the title was entirely Salman’s.”
Salman’s team said that the title change hasn't been a sudden decision. “Changing the title may feel sudden to SK sir's fans, but it was never an overnight decision. From the start, we had registered two titles — Battle of Galwan and Maatrubhumi. As we went through the journey of making our film, we realised it was never just about a battle. At its heart, the film is about humanity, empathy, and the silent battles our soldiers fight.”
The new title, according to Salman’s team, is more in keeping with what the film has to say. “Maatrubhumi: May War Rest in Peace captures that emotion and sacrifice far more truthfully. It reflects the soul of the story — preserving humanity even in the face of conflict. There’s also a song in the film by the same name, and the love it has received from audiences made the title feel even more right.”
