Director reveals most emotional part of 120 Bahadur
The film`s director Razneesh Razy Ghai, recently opened up on the most emotional part of the movie that moved him to the core. Talking to IANS, he said, “If you know about the battle, out of 120, most of them died fighting this battle. So we’ve captured a lot of scenes where, one by one, we start losing them. And those scenes have come out so emotional that when I was watching them in the edit, once or twice, I had tears in my eyes. I think the emotional part of it has really hit the right chord.”
He further added, “Those were also the most difficult ones to shoot, and when you’re feeling it and the scenes start coming out really nice, it touches you deeply. So, I would say I am really proud of the emotional graph of this movie. It runs throughout the film, but I think we have got those moments right. The camaraderie between the boys has come out really, really nice.”
Directed by Razneesh ‘Razy’ Ghai and produced by Ritesh Sidhwani, Farhan Akhtar (Excel Entertainment), and Amit Chandrra (Trigger Happy Studios), the film releases in cinemas on November 21, 2025, echoing the immortal line: “Hum Peechhe Nahin Hatenge.”
