20 years of Lagaan and Gadar | What Has Been Said:
Aamir Khan shared his experience in a statement about the film. He said: “Lagaan was, is, and continues to be a fantastic experience for me. It’s been a journey in which I’ve met fascinating new people, made new friends, begun relationships that have lasted more than two decades, shared so much with these beautiful individuals, learned so much, felt so many emotions, and experienced so much.
In so many ways, this adventure has shaped me. And along the way, I’d want to thank Ashu, the whole Lagaan crew, all of the numerous teams who helped bring the film to different audiences across the world, and all of you who have watched it.
We’ve all met along the way, some earlier than others, but we’re all fellow travelers. I’d want to express my gratitude to all of you for being my fellow travelers and for making this voyage so memorable and rewarding for me. Thank you so much for your time, affection, and emotional generosity.”
Lagaan director Ashutosh Gowariker said, “The box office response to my previous two films startled me. It also helped me to come up with a tale that I was confident in. A narrative that will appeal to a wide range of moviegoers. And the result was Lagaan’s script. And, despite our last film’s failure at the box office, I was lucky to have Aamir’s support on this one. It is exceedingly tough to get Aamir to make a film, but once he does, the filmmaker has achieved his goal. And I owe him a huge debt of gratitude.
For me, Lagaan has been a highly treasured and satisfying experience. I want to thank the audiences for showering Lagaan with so much love and adoration over the years. 20 to be exact!!”
