Mangal Pandey - The Rising

It’s finally here — the film that everyone’s talking about.The film for which Aamir Khan grew his hair and moustache; the film from which Aishwarya Rai was dumped; the film that was expected to be worth every bit of the four-year-long wait since Aamir’s last release.Mangal Pandet -the Rising , the most expensive film in the history of Bollywood, is all set to hit the screens on Friday.
Story
Aamir plays the lead role of the revolutionary, Mangal Pandey, who, in his own way, triggered a mutiny among the Indian sepoys working for the British army in 1857.The add-on characters come in the form of English actor Toby Stevens who plays Gordon, a kind-hearted British officer ,Heera (Rani Mukherjee), a prostitute Mangal falls in love with and Amisha Patel,a widow.

Interesting Points about Mangal Pandey

• The film was first planned in 1989 with Amitabh Bachchan as Mangal Pandey. When it was set to be revived in the 1990s, Sanjay Dutt was considered for the role.

• Aamir took six months to grow his moustache and 18 months to grow his hair since he didn’t want to use a wig for the film.
  
• The international version, called The Rising — The Ballad of Mangal Pandey, is just five minutes shorter due to the “tighter English language”, says Ketan Mehta.

Mangal Pandey in MSN spaces
A blog has been specially created by MSN India for Aamir Khan to interact with his fans on the making of the film.Amir will be posting some articles to the blog.In his words
" HI! I am in my space now and I am really enjoying reading what you guys have posted. To those of you who have been so appreciative of my work — thanks for all the love and support. Much appreciated. I’m going to pick now at random some of the blogs and react to them individually. Mangal ho! (May all be well)”.
In Bangalore
Some of my friends working in TATA Elxsi and TCS got tickets for free to watch the movie in selected theatres in the city.This came as Independence Gift.Unfortunatley none of them will utilise the oppurtunity,as all of us will be going to our native places for 3 day holidays.(Independence Day Fall on Monday).Hmmmmm.
