Chitrangda Singh’s First Look in “Battle of Galwan has struck a chord
The first look of Chitrangda Singh from the upcoming war drama Battle of Galwan has struck a strong emotional chord, setting the tone for a performance rooted in restraint and authenticity. Revealed through the patriotic track ‘Maatrubhumi’, the visuals introduce Chitrangda in the role of an army wife — a portrayal that consciously steps away from glamour in favour of grace, simplicity, and lived-in emotion.
Dressed in modest traditional attire with minimal makeup, Chitrangda’s look reflects the quiet strength of the countless Indian women who stand firmly behind soldiers serving the nation. Her character is positioned as the emotional anchor to Salman Khan’s soldier, embodying stability, dignity, and resilience while the narrative unfolds along the harsh realities of life at the border.
As Salman Khan’s on-screen partner, Chitrangda brings warmth and depth to the story, representing the often-unseen sacrifices made by families of armed forces personnel. The film highlights how service to the nation extends beyond the battlefield, with the soldier’s wife emerging as a pillar of emotional support back home. Their pairing has already sparked positive reactions, with many calling it one of the most compelling and refreshing casting choices in recent times.
Weighing in on Chitrangda Singh’s casting and screen presence, trade expert Taran Adarsh praised the actor’s long-standing talent and suitability for the role. “Chitrangda Singh has always been a fantastic actress with strong command over performance. Casting her opposite Salman Khan is a smart and solid move, and I’m glad to see this pairing finally on screen. She looks simple, beautiful and extremely convincing in the visuals released so far. Frankly, she should have received her due far earlier since she has been an amazing actress.”
Battle of Galwan is shaping up to be a large-scale war drama that blends patriotism with emotional storytelling. With Salman Khan leading the narrative as a soldier on the frontlines and Chitrangda Singh portraying the emotional core at home, the film promises to strike a balance between spectacle and sentiment.
As anticipation builds around the film, Chitrangda’s understated first look and the strong industry endorsement have further heightened expectations. The film not only marks a significant casting moment for the actor but also positions her in a role that underscores strength through subtlety — a portrayal that many believe could become one of the most memorable performances of her career.
