It’s almost impossible to not be stirred on hearing the opening lines of Aye Mere Watan Ke Logon in Lata Mangeshkar’s voice. It has the same effect on Mitul Pradeep, whose father Kavi Pradeep had penned the iconic song. She is touched that six decades after the song was created to salute the soldiers and martyrs of the 1962 India–China war, it has found a special place in the teaser of 120 Bahadur, the Farhan Akhtar-starrer that depicts the Battle of Rezang La.
