Actor-director Farhan Akhtar, a stalwart in the Indian film industry, has once again captivated audiences with a tantalizing preview of his upcoming project, ‘120 Bahadur’. Taking to Instagram, Farhan shared a collection of mesmerizing photographs from the outdoor set located in the picturesque region of Ladakh. These captivating images offer a glimpse into the highly anticipated film in which he plays the role of the valiant army officer, Major Shaitan Singh PVC.
The scenic snapshots reveal a landscape dominated by majestic tents set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Ladakh mountains, all beneath the expansive canvas of the clear sky. Accompanying these visuals, Farhan shared a poetic caption, “A quiet base #bts #120Bahadur #ladakh #faroutdoors,” further heightening the anticipation surrounding this project.
As the images went public, Farhan’s posts were met with an outpouring of admiration from fans and industry colleagues alike, who descended upon the comment section with fervent enthusiasm. Shibani Akhtar, Farhan’s wife, succinctly summed up the awe with a simple yet powerful “stunning”. Farah Khan Kunder couldn’t help but marvel at the natural beauty captured in the photographs, exclaiming, “Look at this sky.” Meanwhile, Zoya Akhtar described the scene as nothing short of “Heaven.”
These comments underline the widespread excitement for Farhan’s venture, not only among his fans but also within the close-knit community of his peers. The fervor is not unwarranted, as this project marks an important chapter in Farhan’s illustrious career.
In September, Farhan officially announced the launch of ‘120 Bahadur’, a film that honors the valor and spirit of Indian soldiers. The movie is rooted in the historic backdrop of the 1962 Indo-China war and takes inspiration from the Battle of Rezang La, a poignant moment in history where Indian soldiers showcased extraordinary bravery and sacrifice. Farhan’s role as Major Shaitan Singh PVC, a decorated and revered figure from this battle, places him at the heart of the narrative.

To amplify the buzz around this project, Farhan also unveiled the first poster of the film on social media. The poster is a striking composition featuring the silhouette of a soldier, likely Major Shaitan Singh, majestically standing amidst the snowy, rugged terrain of Ladakh, perfectly setting the tone for the film’s portrayal of resilience and heroism.
The directorial helm of ‘120 Bahadur’ is in the hands of Razneesh ‘Razy’ Ghai, with production managed by the reputable Excel Entertainment. As the project officially commenced filming, expectations soared, with audiences eagerly awaiting the film’s depiction of historical events that continue to resonate with patriotic fervor.
On a parallel path, Farhan is also in the throes of creativity as he prepares to direct the much-discussed third installment of the ‘Don’ franchise. With Ranveer Singh cast in the titular role alongside Kiara Advani, the anticipation for ‘Don 3’ is palpable. This film will see Ranveer step into the role made iconic by Shah Rukh Khan and Amitabh Bachchan in earlier versions. The ‘Don’ series is renowned for its gripping storytelling and high-octane action sequences and has consistently delivered unforgettable cinematic moments.
Farhan Akhtar’s recent projects underscore his versatility and commitment to evolving as both an actor and a filmmaker, constantly pushing creative boundaries and delivering stories that captivate and inspire. As fans eagerly await the release of ‘120 Bahadur’, the industry buzzes with excitement, anticipating a narrative that promises to honor the valor of soldiers while simultaneously offering a visual spectacle.
