Preity Zinta gets nostalgic as Lakshya completes 17 years

Lakshya clocked in 17 years of its release today. The film directed by Farhan Akhtar starred Hrithik Roshan, Preity Zinta and Amitabh Bachchan in lead roles. On its anniversary today,Preity posted a snippet of the song "Agar main kahoon" from the film on Instagram. The number features the actress alongside Hrithik. "Remembering Lakshya today -- My toughest film ever. Filming at 18000+feet in Ladakh was brutal and beautiful at the same time. I'm so proud of this film and everything it stood for," she captioned the image. Preity added: "It is definitely a love letter to all the army brats out there It's also a reminder to never forget all those sacrifices & the unmatched bravery of our armed forces.

Recalling helming the project, Farhan took to Instagram and thanked the Indian army for their support. "Forever grateful to the Indian army for supporting us and to the incredibly dedicated and tenacious cast and crew who collaborated on this life experience .. I won't call it a film, because it's always been more than that. 'Lakshya'...17 years," he wrote.Along with it, Farhan posted a video clip featuring memorable scenes from the movie. Lakshya is a coming of age film set in the times of 1999 Kargil War. While Hrithik Roshan played the role of Karan Shergill, who goes from being an aimless young man to a courageous army officer, Preity Zinta played a journalist, Romila Dutta, who did war reporting in Lakshya.'Lakshya' didn't perform well at the box office at the time of the release but later gained cult status.
