This is a story about the resilience shown by the Indians when they were under British Rule. They were already taxed to the bone, but when Jack Russell announces that he will double the Lagaan (tax) from all villagers, they decide to oppose it. Leading the villagers is a handsome young man named Bhuvan, who challenges them to a game of cricket, to be played by veteran British cricket players, versus villagers, including Bhuvan himself, who have never played the game before. As the challenge is accepted, the interest grows and attracts Indians from all over the region, as well as the British from all over the country, as everyone gathers to see the 'fair play' that the British will display against their counterparts.
