Lagaan: Difference between revisions

* [[The Dragon]]: Technically Russel's entire team, but special mention goes to Yardley, who bowls the ball straight at his opponent's <s> body</s> head. Twice.

* [[Did Not Get the Girl]]: Or rather, guy - Elizabeth realises she's the odd woman out, and returns to England where she remains unmarried for the rest of her days (considering this is Victorian England, that's saying something).

** It even happens before then. {{spoiler|The crippled Kachra is batting on what is supposed to be the final ball. He fails to hit the ball over the boundary, meaning they've lost the game. The umpire then declares "no ball" because Yardley the bowler stepped over the line, but it's never clear whether he actually did or if the umpire was lying in favor of the Champaner team. This puts the much-more capable Bhuvan at bat for the actual last ball.}}

** Which is [[Truth in Television]] - a lot of European and Asian citizens view cricket tournaments as a ground where their countries can put aside their political and dogmatic differences and compete on a sportsmanly field.

* [[Gorgeous Period Dress]]

* [[Kick the Dog]]: In Russel's first appearance, he shoots a rabbit just to make a point.

** Russel does this roughly once an hour.

* [[Love Triangle]]: Bhuvan, Gauri, and Elizabeth.

** Also Lakha, Bhuvan, and Gauri.
