The film, slated for an April 17 release, draws inspiration from the historic Galwan Valley events and goes beyond the battlefield. The new title change reflects that. Directed by Apoorva Lakhia, Maatrubhumi: May War Rest in Peace is based on the 2020 clash between Indian and Chinese troops. The Salman Khan film is set to clash at the box office with Kartik Aaryan’s fantasy thriller Naagzilla: Naag Lok Ka Pehla Kaand, directed by Mrighdeep Singh Lamba and produced by Dharma Productions.
