Actor-filmmaker Farhan Akhtar just ramped up the anticipation for 120 Bahadur with a powerful new poster drop ahead of the teaser release slated for August 5, 2025. Captioned with grit and defiance — "Hum peechhe nahin hatenge. Teaser out tomorrow." — the poster sets a bold, determined tone for what’s shaping up to be one of the most awaited war dramas of the year.
Directed by Razneesh “Razy” Ghai, 120 Bahadur chronicles the heroic Battle of Rezang La — a pivotal moment during the 1962 Sino-Indian War where 120 Indian soldiers of the 13th Kumaon Regiment, led by Major Shaitan Singh Bhati, held their ground against over 3,000 Chinese troops. The film pays tribute to courage under fire and a legacy that too few know but all should remember.
Farhan, who makes a grand return to the silver screen, stars as Major Shaitan Singh, a role laced with gravitas and historical significance. Also featuring Rashi Khanna, Sparsh Walia, and Arhan Bagati, the film boasts a stellar ensemble and high-octane visuals — with war zones recreated at 14,000 feet in Ladakh.
Backed by Excel Entertainment and Trigger Happy Studios, and produced by Ritesh Sidhwani, Farhan Akhtar, and Amit Chandrra, 120 Bahadur is armed with an original score by Amit Trivedi and lyrics penned by Javed Akhtar and Sumit Aroraa, ensuring the film strikes not just visually but emotionally too.
With its teaser landing just ahead of Independence Day, 120 Bahadur is poised to remind us all what true patriotism, sacrifice, and brotherhood look like — not just in history books, but on the battlefield.
