The second teaser of Farhan Akhtar headliner war-drama 120 Bahadur will be unveiled on the birth anniversary of Lata Mangeshkar on September 28.

The film also has a modern rendition of the Mangeshkar’s iconic song ‘Ae Mere Watan Ke Logo’, written by Kavi Pradeep and composed by C. Ramachandra. The song was created and released in 1963 with the sole purpose to honor the Indian soldiers who lost their lives in the 1962 India-China war. 120 Bahadur is based on the Battle of Rezang La which occurred during the 1962 war.

Talking about the release of the teaser on such an important day, Farhan said, “It is special to unveil Teaser 2 of 120 Bahadur on this day. The song was written for the brave soldiers and martyrs of the 1962 India-China war and sung live by Lata ji, the recordings of which continue to stir the soul of the nation even today. The message of our film is aligned with Kavi Pradeep ji’s heartfelt lyrics.”

120 Bahadur will tell the story of Param Vir Chakra awardee, Major Shaitan Singh Bhati and the soldiers of Charlie Company of the 13 Kumaon Regiment. The military action film is set against the backdrop of the 1962 Indo-China war and draws inspiration from the Battle of Rezang La, where 120 Indian soldiers fought against several thousand Chinese troops.

Directed by Razneesh ‘Razy’ Ghai and produced by Ritesh Sidhwani, Farhan Akhtar (Excel Entertainment), and Amit Chandrra (Trigger Happy Studios), 120 Bahadur releases in cinemas on November 21.
