Ever since the emotional teaser of 120 Bahadur dropped, audiences have been buzzing with excitement and curiosity.
Now, that anticipation has finally been rewarded. On Thursday, the makers released the powerful and deeply moving trailer of Farhan Akhtar’s upcoming war drama — a film that promises to stir both hearts and patriotic pride.
The trailer has already received immense love online. Superstar Salman Khan was among those who praised it, sharing on his Instagram Stories: “Bahut kamal trailer hai. Congratulations @faroutakhtar and the entire team of #120bahadur. Yeh kahani har Indian ke dil mein utregi.”
Replying to Salman Khan's tweet, Farhan Akhtar wrote, "Thank you so much Salman. Big Big Hug..."
The trailer opens with the familiar and commanding voice of Amitabh Bachchan, instantly drawing viewers in.
His remarks recall a period when China and India were viewed as "brothers," a notion that was destroyed in 1962 when betrayal replaced trust. The tone of the story is established by the narration, which is based on suffering, resiliency, and the determination to protect one's homeland at all costs.
Major Shaitan Singh Bhati, whose name is inscribed in Indian military history for his valour at the Battle of Rezang La, is played by Farhan Akhtar.
Farhan's powerful portrayal of a soldier who knows the odds are against him but refuses to give up is glimpsed in the trailer.

He says, "Main ladey bina haar nahi manna chahta (I don't want to accept defeat without fighting)," which perfectly encapsulates the man's character and the film's message: true heroism is standing your ground even when victory seems unattainable.
The images, which include soldiers fighting in bitterly cold and unfeasible conditions, explosions reverberating through the mountains, and silent moments of emotion that serve as a reminder of the real stakes, are both heartbreaking and breathtaking.
As Farhan's love interest, Raashii Khanna makes a fleeting but memorable appearance, providing a window into the humanity of a man destined for historical immortality.
Directed by Razneesh “Razy” Ghai and produced by Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar under Excel Entertainment, along with Amit Chandrra’s Trigger Happy Studios, 120 Bahadur has been filmed across Ladakh, Rajasthan, and Mumbai.
Set to release in cinemas on 21 November 2025, 120 Bahadur looks ready to be one of the year’s most impactful stories of courage and sacrifice.
