Besides Salman Khan, several celebrities took to social media to extend warm wishes on 79th Independence Day. Akshay Kumar, Ananya Panday, Mrunal Thakur, Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Varun Dhawan, Arjun Kapoor, Raveena Tandon and more celebrated the day with full vigour. Bollywood’s Independence Day celebrations in 2025 were a blend of love for the nation and personal expression.

Meanwhile, Salman Khan is gearing up for his upcoming film, Battle of Galwan, which is based on the 2022 India-China Galwan Valley conflict. Directed by Apoorva Lakhia, the film will show Salman Khan in intense action sequences and challenging shooting conditions in Ladakh. Talking about it, the actor shared, “It is physically demanding. Every year, every month, every day it gets more and more difficult. I have to give more time now for training. Earlier, I would do it in one or two weeks, now I’m running, kicking, punching, and all that stuff. This film demands that.”

Salman also confirmed that Battle of Galwan will release in January, unlike his traditional Eid releases. He also hinted towards a sequel to his 2015 film Bajrangi Bhaijaan which is also in the works.
