Another user noted, “The sets for Battle of Galwan and KBC are in Film City. Apoorva Lakhia may have met AB during the shoot. There are rumours that Govinda might also make a cameo. Since Salman is currently shooting only one film, he was likely referring to BOG.” Meanwhile, fans are also discussing the fascinating casting choices of the film, noting that Salman Khan, who is 60, will reportedly portray the role of Santosh Babu, an army officer who was 37 during the historic battle.
