At the teaser launch event of his upcoming film 120 Bahadur, Farhan explained why he stayed away from acting for so long. He said he takes films very seriously and doesn’t want to act in just any project. According to him, a film should offer more than just entertainment. While fun and enjoyment are important, he believes a movie should also carry meaning and connect with the audience in a deeper way.

Farhan admitted that some people might call him “fussy” or “picky” when it comes to choosing scripts. But for him, it’s important to feel passionate about the story. He shared that the last time he felt this kind of connection was when he worked on Bhaag Milkha Bhaag, the 2013 film based on the life of Indian athlete Milkha Singh. That movie was a huge success and became a special milestone in his career.
Now, Farhan is making his acting comeback with 120 Bahadur. The movie is based on a true story of 120 Indian soldiers who bravely fought during the 1962 Battle of Rezang La. The battle is known as one of India’s most heroic military moments. The film is directed by Razneesh ‘Razy’ Ghai and is set to release on November 21, 2025. Farhan is also one of the producers of the film.
