LAGAAN - After the rebellion of 1857, every uprising, large or small was swiftly crushed by the British. The freedom movement was all but extinguished as no one dared to raise their heads. These were times when most of India had come to accept that the British would rule for another 100 years. The Rajahs had gradually lost most of their legendary power and wealth and were now only normal rulers – in some cases mere tax collectors on behalf of the British. Lagaan is a story of extraordinary circumstances thrust upon ordinary people. Adversity faced with fortitude and injustice with dignity. Faith and courage come face to face with arrogance and ruthlessness.
