On the professional front, Amitabh will lend his voice to narrate the opening scene of Farhan Akhtar's film ‘120 Bahadur’, which is based on the real events of the 1962 India-Sino war.
The announcement of Big B's involvement was made during an episode of the quiz-based reality show ‘Kaun Banega Crorepati’. The episode featured Farhan and his father, the esteemed screenwriter Javed Akhtar, who also celebrated Amitabh's birthday on set.
Farhan discussed the Battle of Rezang La and the valor of soldiers who faced overwhelming odds against 3,000 Chinese troops. He later asked Amitabh if he would narrate the film's opening sequence.
Farhan expressed, “Our film starts with a narrator’s voice detailing the events of Rezang La. It would be an honor if you could narrate our opening.”
‘120 Bahadur’ was filmed in the stunning landscapes of Ladakh and is inspired by the true events of the 1962 India-Sino conflict. Farhan stars as Major Shaitan Singh Bhati, who, alongside his comrades from the 13 Kumaon Regiment, stood resolute against overwhelming enemy forces.
Directed by Razneesh ‘Razy’ Ghai and produced by Ritesh Sidhwani, Farhan Akhtar of Excel Entertainment, and Amit Chandrra of Trigger Happy Studios, the film is scheduled for release in theaters on November 21, 2025.
