About the Film
Farhan Akhtar, after Bhaag Milkha Bhaag, came back to the realm of biopic with the intense historical war drama which was already expected a lot by the fans. The tale revolves around Major Shaitan Singh Bhati and his 120 men holding the India-China border, thereby holding back almost 3,000 enemy troops, and their ultimate sacrifice.
Though the storyline is a bit old, the film did receive a lot of compliments for the way it was shot, the battle scenes, and the actors. It is going to be a gripping movie for the war film lovers, however, to a certain extent, some of the audience might find it going through the same old story again.
With the free streaming only a few days away, 120 Bahadur will be able to get more people to see it and also, it will give a chance to the audience to get control over the military stories of India that were the most inspiring ones.
