Talk:Swades

Film within the film
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)


 * 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)


 * 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)

Budget confusion
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.
