Actor-filmmaker Farhan Akhtar’s war drama 120 Bahadur is set for a November release. And, we have exclusively learnt that besides Farhan, the film also stars Raashii Khanna.

A source says, “Raashii proved herself with The Sabarmati Report and Yodha (both 2024) by playing two starkly different characters. The makers of 120 Bahadur felt that she’d be able to hold her ground in a story that is so patriotic and hard-hitting, and bring added depth.”

The movie, which revolves around the Battle of Rezang La during the 1962 Sino-Indian War, will see Farhan step into the shoes of Major Shaitan Singh, who was awarded the Param Vir Chakra for his sacrifice for the country. Farhan, also the film’s co-producer, shot in Ladakh, which marked his return to the place for a full-fledged film 20 years after filming the Hrithik Roshan-starrer Lakshya (2004).
