Farhan Akhtar’s War Drama 120 Bahadur Sees A Sharp Drop On 1st Monday, Stands At Rs 11.50 Crore

Farhan Akhtar’s latest project 120 Bahadur,

which chronicles the historic Battle of Rezang La fought by the 13 Kumaon Regiment, was one of the year’s most-awaited military dramas. The film marked his return to the big screen as Param Vir Chakra Awardee Major Shaitan Singh Bhati. Released on November 21, the film had high hopes, but it witnessed a steep fall in box office numbers on its first Monday.

Despite receiving rave reviews for its hard-hitting dialogues, emotional depth, and powerful performances, the film is struggling to maintain momentum after a modest opening.

According to early estimates by industry tracker Sacnilk, 120 Bahadur earned just Rs 1.40 crore on Day 4, marking its lowest single-day collection since release. With this, the

film’s total box office earnings now stand at Rs 11.50 crore.
