Film within the film[edit]

During the film, the village watches an "old Bollywood film" at the open-air cinema. I assume this was a parody rather than a real film, but I missed most of this scene when I saw Swades and don't have the DVD. Can someone explain this a little? Perhaps it should be mentioned in the synopsis. ProhibitOnions 10:05, 27 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

That was Yaadon ki Baarat, in which Aamir Khan appears as a little boy who raises one finger as a sign that he needs to go to the bathroom and "Number One". His first film appearance, as a child artiste. I couldn't help but feel that the director was poking a bit of fun at his former collaborator on Lagaan. Zora 10:13, 27 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Makes sense! Thanks, Zora! Would you like to add this to the article? It's quite an interesting detail. Regards, ProhibitOnions 11:27, 27 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Budget confusion[edit]

In the info box it says the film's budget is rs20,000,000(2 Crores) which i doubt. Such long movie with star cast made in 2 crores? and if it is right then the conversion in dollars is wrong. It says rs 20,000,000 = $5,000,000. I wished someone who knows good sources for movie budgets would verify it. If no, then may be i will try to find some source. Thank you.

Mohan Bhargava Shahrukh is a bright, young, India-born scientist working in NASA as the project manager on a rainfall monitoring satellite known as The Global Precipitation Measurement or GPM. (It is in reality a NASA mission expected to be launched in 2007).
Aamir Khan, director Ashutosh Gowariker's star from his previous movie Lagaan has a cameo appearance: at one point, a clip from the movie Yaadon Ki Baaraat is shown; one of the child artists is eight-year-old Aamir Khan.
This is the first Indian film to be filmed at NASA.
It is also one of the Top Ten Longest Duration Films in Bollywood as of Feb 27, 2007.
