The makers of Salman Khan’s Maatrubhumi: May War Rest In Peace have addressed reports claiming the film has run into trouble with the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). Dismissing the speculation, the team shared a statement saying the claims are “false” and clarified that the film has not yet been submitted for certification.
The clarification came after several reports suggested that the CBFC had withheld the film’s clearance certificate until further notice. Refuting the claims, the makers said there was no truth to the reports and urged media outlets to rely only on official updates.
In a statement shared on July 4, the team said, “Any claims suggesting that Maatrubhumi: May War Rest In Peace has encountered issues with the CBFC or that its certification has been put on hold are false. The film has not yet been submitted to the CBFC for certification. Therefore, such reports are entirely baseless (sic).”
The statement further urged people not to circulate unverified information, adding that any official updates regarding the film would be shared only through Salman Khan Films’ official channels.
The film, previously titled Battle of Galwan, was originally slated for release in April but was later postponed. Since then, reports have linked the project to reshoots, creative changes and, more recently, an alleged delay in certification.
Following the postponement, industry reports suggested that the Salman Khan-starrer could arrive in cinemas during the Independence Day weekend in August. However, the makers are yet to announce a revised release date.
