So, here’s the big update straight from B-Town, and it’s about none other than Bhaijaan himself! After wrapping up the action-packed Sikandar, Salman Khan is marching into cinemas again – this time, guns blazing – with his highly anticipated war film, Battle Of Galwan.

And while fans were hoping for yet another classic Salman-on-Eid release, we’ve got some exclusive scoop for you. Battle Of Galwan won’t be arriving this Eid.

Wait, What? No Eid Release for Salman?!

Yep, you read that right. Normally, Eid = Salman Khan blockbuster, right? But this time, things are looking a little different.

A reliable source close to the project spilled the beans to us, saying:

“The makers are not looking at releasing Battle Of Galwan on Eid. The release calendar for March 2026 is already packed.”

Let’s break it down – March 19, 2026, is when Yash’s Toxic, Dhamaal 4, and the much-hyped Love & War (starring Ranbir-Alia-Vicky, directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali) are all gunning for release. Even if Love & War gets pushed, that still leaves two biggies.

And Salman, being the professional that he is, doesn’t want to step on toes or spark unnecessary box office clashes.

So, When Will Battle Of Galwan Hit Theatres?

Right now, two potential windows are being considered: January 2026 and June 2026.

That’s because:

Ramzan starts in late February (not ideal for film releases).
Too many films are lined up for the months in between.
And Salman’s team wants a clean, clutter-free window.

“The makers are planning a quick shoot – around 55 to 60 days,” another insider told us. “If post-production moves fast, a January release is very possible. If not, June will be the final call.”

So yeah, it all depends on how fast the team wraps things up – and we know Salman doesn’t like delays!

But Why Not Bakri Eid in May?

Good question! Many fans assumed the team might go for Bakri Eid (May 27, 2026). But here’s the twist – that date’s right around the IPL 2026 finale (May 31).

And let’s be honest, cricket fever in India? Nothing beats that.

Still, does Salman really need a festival release? Not at all.

As the insider rightly said:

“Salman Khan is a bona fide megastar. He doesn’t need a holiday release. If the film is solid and his role is powerful, fans will show up — festival or not!”

Here’s What We Know So Far About Battle Of Galwan

It’s a war film – an intense, gritty, patriotic drama.
Salman Khan will be seen in a never-before-seen avatar.
The first look poster already set the internet on fire.
The shoot will start soon and is planned to be wrapped within 2 months.

And judging by the buzz, this one’s going to be epic.

Here’s What You Need to Know

So, no Eid dhamaka from Salman in 2026? That’s okay, because Battle Of Galwan sounds like it’s going to be worth the wait. Whether it hits screens in the chilly January air or under the summer sun in June, Salman Khan’s star power won’t be dimmed.

It’s a war story. It’s emotional. It’s explosive. It’s Salman like you’ve never seen him before.

Bhaijaan doesn’t follow trends – he sets them. And when he arrives, all eyes will be on him, holiday or not.
