The Ladakh schedule is expected to be intense, involving night shoots, battle scenes, and combat training. An insider revealed that Salman has been preparing for the role since May.

In an earlier interview, Salman spoke about how demanding the prep has been. “It’s physically intense. With every passing day, it gets tougher. I used to get into shape in a week or two, but this time I’m running, kicking, punching, doing it all,” he said.
