Lagaan (English: land tax), also known as Lagaan: Once upon a time in India, is an award-winning film made in India, released on June 1, 2001. It became the second Bollywood film to be nominated for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film (after Mother India in 1957), though No Man’s Land won the award. The director, Ashutosh Gowariker, and the lead actor and producer, Aamir Khan, flew to Los Angeles to lobby for the film; they, and the film, attracted a great deal of free publicity.
