India TV's review
Jaya Dwivedie of India TV wrote in her review, '120 Bahadur is a film with heart, hard work and determination. It salutes bravery, celebrates the sacrifices of soldiers, and brings a difficult chapter like the Battle of Rezang La to the big screen, but the film fails to fully capture the deep emotion and cinematic intensity that this story truly deserves. The visuals are superb, but the emotional connect is lost. Still, it's a film that must be seen, as it reminds us that real heroes stand on the border, not on screen.'
