The trailer gives a glimpse into the intense action scenes from Battle of Rezang La (1962), a defining moment in Indian military history when 120 soldiers of India's Charlie Company stood their ground against over 3000 Chinese troops. The trailer opens with a voiceover by Amitabh Bachchan who gives a background about Indo-China relations and how the latter betrayed India, leading up to tension on the border. Farhan, who plays Major Shaitan Singh Bhati, PVC, is then seen leading his team of soldiers in the icy terrains. At one point, he says to someone that they will not give up without a fight. Another soldier says that he is willing to take the lives of 100 people for his country. The trailer ends with all the soldiers preparing to shoot their guns as they chant the war cry together.
