Mangal Pandey... doing better than Lagaan?

AAMIR KHAN may have kept the media waiting, but the film is probably worth the wait. Mangal Pandey-The Rising has received mixed reviews, but the producers of the film insist it is a success. It has also been released in the United States, the United Kingdom and Australia. The film is currently running in three theatres in the city and is apparently doing better than Aamir Khan's last hit, Lagaan. If a film can create patriotic fervour, why not?
