story of the film
Farhan Akhtar is playing the role of Major Shaitan Singh in the film ‘120 Bahadur’. The story is based on the historical battle of Rezang La, where 120 Indian soldiers fought bravely against 3,000 Chinese soldiers. This is a chapter of Indian history, which is considered a symbol of bravery and sacrifice. Regarding this film, Farhan also said that not many people know about this fight. It is important for all of us to know about Shaitan Singh ji and the 120 brave soldiers standing with him. If the film becomes tax free, the story will be able to reach further.
Makers of the film
This war drama has been directed by Rajneesh Ghai. Also, Ritesh Sidhwani, Farhan Akhtar’s Excel Entertainment and Amit Chandra’s Trigger Happy Studios have produced ‘120 Bahadur’. The budget of this Farhan Akhtar film is said to be Rs 85 crore. However, the opening collection of the film was only Rs 2.35 crore, which was much less than expected. In such a situation, if the film becomes tax free, then perhaps the makers will get some relief.
