Lagan is absolutely useless

Haqueekat is a great film which has the inimit able Balraj sahni . who can match him .
Hindustaan Ki Kasam acted by the great actor Raj Kumar and off course Purab aur paschim/Upkar are the greatest patriotic films. Modern films are uselss , boring with out any thing only but exposure

You missed a lot of classics

Haqeekat to start with,

Sarfarosh .thats ,one better than many you looked upon

I have a poor memory of movie names but there are a lot of them...(a couple had young dharam paji in them)

and HINDUSTHANI could also be added

Yup Yup Yup , I agree !

Yup!! Yup !!
I agree, one of the most complete movie ever screened on India Screen. Aamir Khan's (my fav actor, SRK? huh) splendid, excellent, extra-ordinary, outstanding performance ever. Though no doubt his performance is good in every of his film. But the best in Lagaan and DCH.

Hats off to you aamir...!

lagaan was a great bore
by john billayya on Dec 06, 2003 10:07 PM

i found this movie tobe terribly boring.none of the characters were believable.in the early 60's b.r.chopra made "naya daur" which was more realistic and extremely entertaining with interesting characters and great performance.the theme of "lagaan" is similar but the execution is very anaemic compared to "naya daur".

Lagaan.....who says it is not a patriotic film ?
by rajiv sinha on Nov 22, 2003 04:19 AM

do u people mean that patriotism only means fighting at the war front...!
I am sorry for this knowledge of yours.

Patriotism is fighting the evil in your land , irrespective of all...

In the aforesaid film , the charachter - 'Bhuvan' doesn't fight for his own self but for the entire fraternity (He treats the villagers as his own family)
what more ...the best form of patriotism is protecting the common man from the evil , whether accross the border or in your neighbourhood.
Please grow up, and at least try to do what 'Bhuvan' did.

and mind you, cricket was not there for the sake of it...it was used as an medium to convey the message.
and i m quite sure , you people know how powerful this medium is..

Hats off to amir khan production

Thank you all for the comments
by Dr Taher Kagalwala on Aug 20, 2003 07:55 AM

I thank all those who have posted on my article. Firstly, let me say that I have given full credit, but no marks to Mother India. It was the best for over five decades, Mr. Manjunath. Life has to move on..

I have mentioned Kranti in two places and I have also paid a tribute to Manojji in general terms.

I think anyone who says that Lagaan is all about cricket and has no patriotism has missed the magic of the movie totally. FYKI, I do NOT play cricket at all, Soumya!

I admit I missed out Border.

Thanks once again to all.
