In a bold move seldom seen in the Hindi film industry, the producers of *120 Bahadur*—Excel Entertainment and Trigger-Happy Studios—are releasing select paid previews across India on Tuesday, 18 November 2025. This is a full three days in advance of the film’s official theatrical release on 21 November 2025.
### Paid Previews Scheduled Three Days Before Official Release
The date isn’t arbitrary. The early screenings are timed to coincide with the 63rd anniversary of the Battle of Rezang La—one of the most heroic chapters in India’s military history and the film’s central inspiration—in 1962.
With this bold step, *120 Bahadur* joins an exclusive club of Hindi films that have dared to offer audiences paid previews days ahead of release—a strategy that signals supreme confidence from the makers.
### A Tribute and a Test
According to the producers, the idea behind these early shows is two-fold: a tribute and a test. The screenings are designed as a homage to the brave soldiers of Rezang La, giving viewers an advance opportunity to experience the film’s emotional depth, large-scale action, and patriotic intensity on a date steeped in historical significance.
At the same time, this move serves as a calculated gauge of audience sentiment, allowing initial reactions to organically build buzz ahead of the wider national release.
### Confidence and Authenticity
A source close to the production explains that this is not just a publicity stunt; it is an act of faith. The makers are confident that the emotion of the film will speak for itself, and that offering paid previews on such an important date further reinforces the authenticity and respect with which *120 Bahadur* has been crafted.
### Industry Buzz and Anticipation
With anticipation already building around the film’s ambitious scale and stirring narrative, this unprecedented preview strategy has only intensified curiosity within the industry. Whether this move proves to be a masterstroke or a high-risk experiment will become clear as audiences line up for these special early screenings on 18 November.
