120 Bahadur: After Delhi, Rajasthan Becomes Second State To Grant Tax-Free Status To War Drama Movie

Excel Entertainment and Trigger Happy Studios’ war epic 120 Bahadur has finally hit cinemas, igniting an electric wave of excitement nationwide. Among the year’s most anticipated releases, the film is earning glowing early praise from both the media and celebrities. With its grand theatrical debut, 120 Bahadur has quickly become the nation’s biggest talking point. Amid its amazing run, the film was declared tax-free in Delhi, and now, achieving yet another milestone, it has been declared tax-free in Rajasthan as well.

120 Bahadur is the story of our brave soldiers’ sacrifice, soldiers who refused to step back and faced the opposing army to protect our nation. As a powerful and significant story that every Indian should witness, the film is being granted tax-free status across several states. After Delhi, it has now been declared tax-free in Rajasthan too. This is yet another remarkable salute to the courage and sacrifice of our soldiers.

The film depicts the heroic story of Major Shaitan Singh Bhati, who was posthumously awarded the Param Vir Chakra—India’s highest military honour—for his courage during the Battle of Rezang La. Released in theatres on 21 November 2025, the movie was also showcased in the Gala Premiere section of the 56th International Film Festival of India (IFFI). Notably, the 1964 film Haqeeqat had earlier portrayed the same historic battle from the 1962 war.
