On the eve of its premiere, the Delhi High Court granted relief to the Farhan Akhtar film "120 Bahadur," but instructed the petitioners who wanted the film's name changed to watch it first.
Justices Pratibha M. Singh and Shail Jain's bench believed that "it is too late now to change the title of the movie." The Sanyukt Ahir Regiment Morcha and its members filed the petition, claiming that "Ahirs" fought the fight portrayed in the movie. They requested that the film's title be altered to "120 Vir Ahir" and that the names of all 120 troops who fought in the conflict be mentioned at the conclusion.Gautam Jha, Morcha's attorney, said during the hearing that he would not pursue the motion to modify the title of the film.
Regarding the mention of the names of the Ahir soldiers, advocate Jay K. Bhardwaj, speaking on behalf of producer Excel Entertainment Pvt. Ltd., stated that all 120 names had been included as a memorial at the conclusion of the feature film. The order includes a screenshot from one of the credit scenes that was given to the court as an example.

The Court attempted "to find an equitable solution to the issue by which the Petitioners are aggrieved," pointing out that the movie was slated for release on November 21, 2025, and that it was too late to change the title. In order to confirm the identities of the 120 Ahir soldiers shown in the credits, it instructed the petitioners to see the movie. The producers must be informed of any necessary adjustments or changes, and they will see to it that they are made for the OTT release. It was made clear that only the Ahir troops' names and the accurate unit data would be revealed, even for the OTT distribution.
