Salman Khan's Maatrubhumi: Still Stuck Due to China?

Despite recent online speculation suggesting an imminent screening for the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC), Salman Khan's film Maatrubhumi is still awaiting clearance. Sources confirm that the movie's release continues to be stalled due to its "China connection." Efforts are underway by the production team to resolve the issues, involving discussions with relevant government officials before the film can be presented to the CBFC for approval.

The war film, previously known as Battle Of Galwan and based on the 2020 India-China conflict, has seen its release date shift multiple times. Initial reports in July 2026 indicated a potential delay to 2027, but a subsequent poster release confirmed a 2026 theatrical debut. However, this is contingent on the resolution of ongoing issues, with a potential shift to 2027 if delays persist or if 2026 theatrical slots are unavailable.
