Salman Khan's Battle of Galwan Mumbai schedule scrapped? Know what went wrong

Salman Khan's much-awaited Battle of Galwan, despite being prepped for Mumbai schedule, might just skip the city altogether when it comes to shooting in the movie. This is despite the sets being mounted in Bandra since July. Salman Khan's film is now likely to be shot in Ladakh, as per a new report on Mid-Day. The shoot could be scheduled between August 22 and September 3.

Why was Battle of Galwan's Mumbai schedule scrapped?

Calling it a creative decision, the insider shared that the makers would start with the action sequences. "Salman sports a distinct look, and for continuity purposes, there couldn’t have been a 30-day gap between the Mumbai and Ladakh stints. Apoorva felt that the sequences would need to be shot in succession. So, for now, the film’s Mumbai schedule is postponed indefinitely," the little birdie shares, adding that the makers might shoot for a song or do some patch work in Mumbai in the last leg of shoot. This source also confirms that the dismantling of sets has commenced.
