New Delhi: It was 20 years ago on June 15 when Aamir Khan’s Lagaan had hit the theaters. The film successfully made it to the Oscars shortlist in the Foreign Language category.
Here is how Twitterati remembers Aamir Khan’s masterpiece:
20 years ago… 15 June 2001 witnessed the biggest clash then: #Lagaan vs #Gadar… While the industry talk was clearly divided – some favouring #Gadar, some #Lagaan – the audience showered love on both films… And the love continues to pour in to this date. #AamirKhan #SunnyDeol pic.twitter.com/KneYVKMVbG

#AamirKhan played a naive village guy in Lagaan,
In the very next movie ‘Dil Chahta hai’, he did urban and cool rich guy character.
Both the roles was contradictory
Only a Superstar like him could do this.

Rare clip of audience reaction in the theatre for Lagaan.
I’ve watched this movie in theatre and this is exactly what was happening.
Have seen theatre turned into stadium.#AamirKhan ??

“Karan and Adi were concerned for me. They said, ‘We heard you are planning it as a single-schedule shoot and sync sound.’ They advised me against both ideas, stating that no one has used sync sound for years. But I went ahead.”- Aamir Khan on #20YearsOfLagaan#AamirKhan #Lagaan

Hope #Lagaan goes for #4krestoration with #DolbyVision with perhaps enhancement for sound with an upgrade to #DolbyAtmos #AamirKhan #AshutoshGowariker #20YearsOfLagaan pic.twitter.com/D0uYgsjYEA

When his contemporaries were doing regular romantic masala movies, #AamirKhan did Lagaan and the rest is history.
