Army Daughter Chitrangda Happy To Be Part Of Salman’s Film On Border Clash

MUMBAI- For Chitrangda Singh, some opportunities arrive without planning, pitching or even expectation, and that’s exactly what made ‘The Battle of Galwan’ so special. The actress admits she never imagined she would find herself part of a film with Salman Khan, despite having known the superstar socially for years.

Sharing her first reaction to being roped in for ‘The Battle of Galwan’ opposite Salman, Chitrangda said, “I got a call from Apoorva Lakhia (director) and I was like, ‘Really?’ I wasn’t so sure that I’d ever end up doing a Salman Khan film because, I mean, I don’t even think I ever pitched myself for some work with him, even though I’d known him socially for a long time.”

“We never discussed it or I never approached him for work. But yeah, it’s definitely something which was a huge surprise,” she added.

 ‘The Battle of Galwan’, starring Salman Khan, is based on the 2020 India-China border clash in the Galwan Valley, depicting the bravery and sacrifice of Indian soldiers during the high-altitude confrontation.

Chitrangda noted, “I’m very proud to be the daughter of an army man. So yeah, it’s very exciting.” (IANS)
