Namaste, Bollywood buffs! đŹ Khabree Kiran is back with another juicy tidbit from the filmi duniya, where drama isnât just on the screen, but also behind the scenes! Get your chai and pakoras ready, because this oneâs a rollercoaster ride through the dusty sets of "Lagaan." đ
Now, picture this: an ambitious project by Ashutosh Gowariker, with our Mr. Perfectionist Aamir Khan at the helm. Originally planned as a quick 80-day sprint, the shoot turned into a marathon of almost a year! Kya baat hai! đ€ Youâd think they were trying to compete with the length of actual cricket matches! đ
Apoorva Lakhia, who was a young assistant director at the time, spills the chai on the madness of shooting "Lagaan." Gujaratâs Kutch region was no less than a tandoor in summers and a freezer in winters, testing the crewâs mettle. The "O Re Chori" sequence? Only possible when the sun decided not to roast them alive! đ
If battling the elements wasnât enough, director Ashutosh had to direct from a hospital bed due to a slipped disc! Imagine him, mic in hand, giving instructions while Lakhia played Chinese whispers on set. đ€ Meanwhile, a random animal incident brought the shoot to a halt, thanks to Maneka Gandhiâs intervention. Itâs like the universe conspired to see how much drama they could handle off-screen! đ
Financial hurdles? Oh, there were plenty! But fear not, Aamir Khan donned his superhero cape and swooped in to save the day (and the budget). Talk about being the true maseeha for the crew! đž
After all this, Lakhia was so drained he swapped film reels for culinary wheels, earning a degree in cooking. But letâs not forget, he pocketed quite the paycheck, even more than the filmâs cinematographer. Paisa hi paisa! đ°
Kiranâs Gyan: In Bollywood, the real drama often unfolds behind the curtain. From weather tantrums to hospital-bed directions, if you survive a film shoot, you can survive anything! So, next time youâre watching "Lagaan," remember the epic saga behind its creation. đŹ
