  7. Jun 7, 2002 · "Lagaan" is an enormously entertaining movie, like nothing we've ever seen before, and yet completely familiar. Set in India in 1893, it combines sports with political intrigue, romance with evil scheming, musical numbers with low comedy and high drama, and is therefore soundly in the tradition of the entertainments produced by the Bombay film industry, "Bollywood," which is the world's largest.

  12. Mar 14, 2023 · The atmosphere was raucous. Deep into the third hour of Ashutosh Gowarikar's Lagaan, art imitates life. An unheralded spinner takes a hat-trick for the "home" team against the run of play. Kachra follows in the footsteps of 20-year-old Harbhajan Singh. It's a huge moment.

  14. Jun 19, 2022 · Lagaan could have the sort of impact on Indian cinema that Star Wars had on Hollywood; it's the first modern epic to emerge from its mother industry. True, it borrowed from Escape to Victory - the Pele starrer in which intrepid Allied POWs defeat the Nazis in a pulsating football game. Granted, it is not quite true to history - about the only analogous real-life event was the barefooted Bengalis of Mohun Bagan overcoming the East Yorkshire Regiment football team in the IFA Shield final in ...

  15. Jun 15, 2021 · Lagaan also clashed with another blockbuster, Gadar: Ek Prem Katha, which was released on the same day, a déjà vu for fans who’d seen a face-off of Aamir Khan and Sunny Deol before – Dil-Ghayal and Raja Hindustani-Ghatak. Aditya Lakhia remembers, “Gadar and Lagaan had a good competition. And I remember when they released, it was pouring. But I think Lagaan has stood the test of time and is remembered for changing many things in Bollywood.”

    Mar 14, 2023 · The second and perhaps most significant reason why everyone has a Lagaan story is that it turned single-screen theatres across the country into cricket stadiums. There was cheering, hooting, clapping, tear-shedding – the works. It was an electric atmosphere that we cherish more now as we grow accustomed to watching films alone on our phones or laptops.

  19. Jun 13, 2021 · Reema Kagti, Kiran Rao, Apoorva Lakhia worked on Lagaan.

  20. Lagaan cost a whopping Rs. 25 crore (250 million rupees, or roughly 6 million U.S. dollars), a huge risk for the seldom-profitable Bollywood genre of historical film. However, it is said to have achieved the unprecedented coup of recovering virtually its entire cost from the sale of music and overseas rights even before its release; it went on to become one of the biggest hits of 2001, and only the third Indian film (after Mother India and Salaam Bombay) to be nominated for a U.S. Academy ...
