'Lagaan" has started the year on an upbeat note.

It virtually swept the Zee Awards last week - everything from the Best Actor to Best Director to Best Film to Best Newcomer to Best Music..........

Like the Golden Globe anticipates the Oscars so does the Zee Awards herald the Awards to follow - namely Filmfare and Screen.

At the moment the adorable Khan is in Los Angeles with his Director in an all out attempt to pull out all plugs for the Oscars. His fore most concern at the moment is to ensure "Lagaan' is visible to all the jury members.

Many a splendid films have died an ignomious death simply by maintaining a low-profile. Now that Aamir is within reaching distance of his most cherished dream - for him to sit back and practice meditation would be a sure recipe for future regret.

I do not think Lagaan deserves to be even mentioned for the Oscars. I am sorry, but the movies lacks several things.

I felt the same thing about "Caravan" (aka The Himalaya) but I was proven wrong.
