Hrithik Roshan’s target was released 21 years, a special story is to become soldier from a young man’s thinking
The 2004 ‘Lakshya’ is still considered one of the most heart -touching war films. This is not just a fight, but the story of a boy becoming a young man, in which the power of the purpose and the spirit of doing something for the country is hidden. This film made under the direction of Farhan Akhtar was not from the heart, but it looks equally special today.
Lakshya ‘Lakshya’ showed the story of Karan Shergill (Hrithik Roshan) that touched the heart, linking the inner battle of a wandering young man with a big field of military life. How a careless boy became a true soldier by working hard. The acting of Hrithik Roshan, Preity Zinta and Amitabh Bachchan was strong in the film.
The dialogues that came out of the heart of Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy and the heart written by Javed Akhtar killed it. This film does not talk about showing, but it is perhaps this is why it seems equally effective today. As soon as the film has been full 21 years, director Farhan Akhtar shared a message from a heart remembering this opportunity on social media.
He wrote, looking for a purpose, celebrating 21 years of the story of moving slowly. #21yearsoflakshya ”
‘Lakshya’ was not just a war film but it was the practice of a cinema made on identity, duty and inner strength. Its depth, true feelings and beautiful visuals still inspire every generation.
Now that Excel Entertainment is ready for its next war drama 120 brave – which is based on the real war of Rejang La – then feels a simple link. While Lakshya showed a spiritual journey of a fictional soldier, 120 will be seen in Bahadur, the true courage of Major Shaitan Singh and 120 soldiers of Charlie Company who made their place in the most memorable battles of the military history of India.
