Initially nervous, the 49-year-old actress expressed that she is now quite content that Khan’s huge fan following accepted her with their hero, as he always has eyes around him. "So you get to hear a lot of responses on what his fans think about his work. I am glad that they kind of accepted me with their Salman, their hero. I am happy that it’s been good so far,” she said in the conversation with Hindustan Times.


Singh claimed that the production for the film has been going on a massive scale. Recently, the film charted the headlines over a conflict over Ladakh, which led to a meeting between Khan and Defense Minister Rajnath Singh. The actor assured that China won’t be defamed in the film, in addition to explaining why Ladakh is the ideal location for the story.

“There is a lot of prep, of course, that has gone into this, as it’s about the Battle of Galwan. But it is also delving into the soldiers’ emotional lives, them as husbands and fathers, as sons,” she said about the film, adding that the makers took care of a lot of perspectives and people who were part of the battle. Moreover, there were a lot of variables required to shoot at night, and everything worked out.
