Tubelight

Tubelight is an upcoming film of Bollywood superstar Salman Khan, releasing on June 23, 2017, ahead of Eid-ul-Fitr 2017. The film is a fictional story set in the backdrop of the 1962 Indo-China war and is written and directed by Kabir Khan, who last directed Bajrangi Bhaijaan, also starring Salman Khan. Pritam has composed the music of Tubelight. The film has been jointly produced by Salman Khan Productions and Kabir Khan. Salman Khan plays the lead role along with Chinese actress Zhu Zhu. Update: The first Tubelight movie review is OUT!

Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan appear in a cameo in Tubelight. The director obtained a no objection certificate from the makers of the Kannada film Tubelight, because of the similar title. The first schedule of filming started in July 2016 in Ladakh. The first schedule lasted for a month and was completed in mid-August 2016. | READ: BollywoodLife Review of Tubelight. | ALSO READ: India.com Review of Tubelight.

Salman Khan's character in Tubelight is named Laxman. He essays the role of a slow learner (hence called Tubelight) who rises above all his weaknesses to find his brother, army man Sohail Khan, who has gone missing post the war between India and China. The basic premise of Tubelight is inspired from Hollywood film 'A Little Boy' which narrated a little boy's journey to stop the on-going war between two countries and find his father who is missing from the war site. There is a little boy in Tubelight as well, played by child actor Matin Ray Tangu.

Tubelight will be the first Indian film to release in China side by side India. Films like Dangal, 3 Idiots, PK, Baahubali: The Beginning, Bahubali 2: The Conclusion, and Happy New Year saw a release in China around six to eight months after the release in India. The recent release of Aamir Khan's Dangal saw it take over the Chinese box office, beating local films as well as Hollywood releases.
