Salman Khan is back in uniform, and this time the mission is not just about winning a battle — it is about stopping one. The first trailer of Maatrubhumi: May War Rest In Peace is finally out, and it puts Bhaijaan front and centre as Colonel B. Santosh Babu, commanding officer of the 16 Bihar Regiment, in a film inspired by the military confrontation between Indian and Chinese troops in Galwan Valley on June 15, 2020. Directed by Apoorva Lakhia and produced under the Salman Khan Films banner, the film follows the colonel who volunteers to head to the front lines to push for peace talks — a move that is not taken kindly by the Chinese troops, and quickly escalates into a brutal brawl. The trailer, shared by Salman on November 10, balances large-scale action in the snow with the quieter, emotional cost of war — the sacrifices and struggles faced by soldiers and their families back home. Chitrangada Singh plays the colonel’s wife, anchoring the emotional core of the story, with Mukesh Rishi, Tenzin Bodh and Ankur Bhatia among the supporting cast. The music, by Himesh Reshammiya along with Meet Bros, Sajid Khan, Shamir Tandon and Ayaan Lall, leans into full patriotic mode. After multiple delays, Maatrubhumi: May War Rest In Peace will release in theatres on December 4, 2026 — and going by the trailer’s response, this is shaping up to be one of the biggest releases of the year-end season.
