On the independence day of India, 15th August 2018 after flag-hoisting at university ground we have planned to watch “Lagaan – once upon a time in India” movie at our department. This movie was released in 2001. It is a sports-drama film, directed by Ashutosh Gowariker, produced by Aamir Khan and Mansoor Khan, written by Gowariker and Abbas Tyrewala. The setting of movie is British India. Patriotism is in the core of movie. The film has some hidden messages also. Here I’m interpreting film as per my understanding.
That movie analyse with the help of various literary theories , approaches and different perspective.
● Post colonialism
● Indianness
● Patriarchy
● Religion
● Nationalism
● Cricket as Metaphor
● Subaltern
● Rural India
● Feminism
● Teamwork and Leadership
● Goodness of Britishers
● Language
● Dance style
Plot:
The film based on religion context.
It is based on Radha , Krishna and Rukmani. So here Radha compared with Elizabeth, Krishna compared with Bhuvan and Rukmani compared with Gauri. But here Bhuvan never fall in love with Elizabeth. He only loves Gauri. So Here is slight diffence between Krishna and Bhuvan. Elizabeth loves Bhuvan and decide to not marry anyone. Elizabeth is like Radha.So the Base of the film is Religion.
