Madness in the Desert

My Rating : 8/10

Wonderfully put-together by Satyajit Bhatkal (Aamir Khan's friend) who captures the spirit of one of the most unconventional Bollywood movies ever made.

I enjoyed this documentary just as much as the film - it's a journey and has the passionate genius of Ashutosh Gowariker with the pragmatic and calm approach of Aamir Khan - together it's magic!

A must-watch for Bollywood cinephiles, a work of intense love and dedication.

Such a motivational documentry I think if you get a great success you might be free to the conclusion.

This is an excellent documentary about the struggle and planning that making a movie like Lagaan demands, something that can translate into our lives with our ambitions and goals. It very excellently potrays what honest intentions and intense & dedicated work can result into, yet it manages to leaves you feeling humbled by one's achievements. Excellent work and a fitting complement to the movie and it's experience.

I enjoyed this as much as I enjoyed the film. The challenges of making a brilliant movie is beautifully depicted. There are many good things about this. I have not given 9/10 liberally. So that sums up whatever I am trying to express. This making reinforced my belief that the Indian film industry is awesome. Thank you for making the making of Lagaan.

I saw this documentary today itself and I must tell you that it was an experience which I will cherish forever. This documentary showcases what actually went through in making a movie worth an academy award nomination. It starts off with the vision of Gowariker and his attempts to convince aamir khan to be on-board with the project. This documentary was made with the very intensity the actual film was made and is captured brilliantly by Sanjay Bhatkal. I was in complete awe after watching what goes through a team of people to go to an isolated place for 6 months trying to bring a script of paper on a celluloid. Hats off to the production team of Lagaan (Lagaanites) of creating a millennial movie which will remain in the hearts of every Indian for generations to come.
