Chitrangda Singh is set to deliver a heartfelt performance as the wife of a military man in the anticipated war drama ‘Battle of Galwan’. Her journey into the role unveiled the intricate emotional landscape of army wives— a powerful fusion of bravery and buried dread.
With her own father having served in the Indian Army, Chitrangda knew the drill of disciplined living and relocations. But embodying a spouse’s viewpoint was revelatory. After engaging with real army families, she said, ‘My dad’s stories were familiar, but this role made me connect deeply with my mother’s silent endurance, her pride intertwined with fear.’
She portrays women who cradle both power and panic within, refusing to let cracks show. Chitrangda’s nuanced take includes not just valor, but the quiet lessons in resilience when the heart aches.
The movie, under Apurva Lakhia’s vision, revisits the deadly Galwan Valley skirmish on June 15, 2020, part of escalating LAC tensions, where India lost 20 valiant soldiers to Chinese aggression.
As a beacon for supportive Indian women, Chitrangda anchors Salman Khan’s character with warmth, honor, and unwavering presence. Teaming up are Ankur Bhatia, Abhilaash Chaudhary, Vipin Bhardwaj, and Siddharth.
Theatrical release on April 17 will bring this tale of courage and quiet heroism to audiences, celebrating the invisible strength that bolsters our defenders.
