Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar’s ‘Excel Entertainment’, in collaboration with Amit Chandrra’s ‘Trigger Happy Studios’, is honoured to present ‘120 Bahadur’, the story of Major Shaitan Singh PVC and the soldiers of ‘Charlie Company’, 13 Kumaon Regiment. This military action film, set against the backdrop of the 1962 Indo-China war, draws inspiration from the Battle of Rezang La, where our men in uniform displayed unparalleled courage, heroism and sacrifice. ‘Excel Entertainment’ and ‘Trigger Happy Studios’ dropped two intriguing motion posters, introducing Farhan Akhtar as Major Shaitan Singh PVC. The first shoot schedule of the film began on September 4 in Ladakh.
