For the unversed, The Bull revolves around Brigadier Bulsara's leadership during the pivotal Operation Cactus in the Maldives in 1988. Previous reports suggested that Salman has even started a rigorous training routine to prepare for his role in the film. The film has been stalled multiple times owing to the Maldives vs Lakshadweep controversy. It is to be noted that the makers of the film have yet to release an official announcement about the movie being shelved.
