What’s Next For Salman Khan?
On the professional front, Salman is currently focused on his upcoming action film Battle of Galwan, directed by Apoorva Lakhia and co-starring Chitrangada Singh. The film is in production and is expected to showcase Salman’s action-packed persona once again. Additionally, he continues to host Bigg Boss 19 Weekend Ka Vaar episodes, keeping audiences engaged with his signature charm and wit.
