Trivia:
Amar Singh managed to get the television channel office where Preity Zinta's character works in the film was set in the actual Sahara newsroom in Delhi. The entire space was vacated within a day's notice. The makers didn't have to pay anything for it, thanks to Amar Singh and Sahara, which is why Sahara and Amar Singh were thanked in the opening credits. moreGoofs:
Factual errors: In the very first scene Hritik Roshan is referred to as Lt. Col. Shergill, whereas in the rest of the movie he is referred to as Lt. Shergill. His actual rank in the movie is Lt. Shergill. moreQuotes:
Pakistani Intruder: [on the walky talky] Hello Gaznabi, why has the firing stopped? Gaznabi come in. Why has the firing stopped?Capt. Jalal Akbar: The firing has stopped because Gaznabi has reached his destiny. Leave our area soon or else swear on khuda we won't leave you.
Pakistani Intruder: Oh, swear on khuda. So are you a muslim?
Capt. Jalal Akbar: Only an Indian for you.

Lakshya is a very well made war, coming of age movie, which can compete with anything from the west.
I personally, feel it ends two debates, other than the fact that it establishes Hrithik as the ultra star-great actor mould (la Kamal Hassan),
a) Farhan Akhtar is the talent to watch for, A Mani Ratnam in the making for Hindi Cinema
b) Prabhu Deva can hand over mantel of the best ever dancer on screen to Hrithik Roshan (you have to see to believe what happens on the screen in the song "Main Asia kyun hoon", which Prabhu Deva himself has choreographed).
Just go and enjoy, this wonderful clean entertainer, which has great music and cinematography to complement the performances from the actors, and the skillful direction of Farhan Akhtar
