She had to plan all the timings… about who would come at what time, who would have breakfast when, etc. They used to keep 15 minutes for breakfast, and I eat slowly, I do everything slowly, so I told them to call me 15 minutes earlier. She scolded me and said, ‘For you, the whole hair and makeup team will not come 15 minutes earlier’.” He went on to add: “I’m the producer and she is scolding me! I said, ‘It takes time for me.’ She said, ‘I don’t care, you have to come…’ She spoke to me very harshly. I felt hurt. So I said, ‘From now on, I will not have breakfast.’ It didn’t affect her; she said, ‘Very good, you can be ready on time then.’ After a week, exhausted, I went back to having breakfast there again.” Aamir went on to collaborate with Reema Kagti in the future, even acting and producing in her own directorial, Talaash.About LagaanLagaan tells the story of a villager, played by Aamir, who assembles a ragtag team to defeat the Britishers in a cricket match to avoid paying triple the tax.
