										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Farhan Akhtar’s directorial Lakshya has completed 17 years today. The film about a carefree youth and his journey to find the goal in his life starred Hrithik Roshan, Priety Zinta and Amitabh Bachchan. While the film could not bring in the big bucks at the box office, it’s still remembered for the way it put the focus on life in the uniform and portrayed war minus any jingoism.</p>
<p>Calling it a life experience, Farhan thanked everyone involved with the project. Sharing a montage of clips from the film, the actor-director wrote, “Forever grateful to the Indian army for supporting us and to the incredibly dedicated &amp; tenacious cast &amp; 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. <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2764.png" alt="❤" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> .”</p>

<p>Preity Zinta, who played a war journalist in Lakshya also took to Instagram to remember the film. Sharing that it was her ‘toughest film ever’, the actor added that it’s also a ‘love letter to all army brats’. “Remembering Lakshya today – My toughest film ever. Filming at 18000+feet in Ladakh was brutal &amp; beautiful at the same time. I’m so proud of this film &amp; everything it stood for. It definitely is a love letter to all the army brats out there <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2764.png" alt="❤" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> It’s also a reminder to never forget all those sacrifices &amp; the unmatched bravery of our armed forces <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f64f.png" alt="🙏" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> Thank you @amitabhbachchan ji @faroutakhtar @hrithikroshan @ritesh_sid @zoieakhtar @reemakagti1 @jaduakhtar @shankarehsaanloy &amp; the entire cast n crew for this memorable experience. #17yearsofLakshya #Memories #Jaihind #Ting,” wrote Preity Zinta.</p>

<p>Lakshya, a coming-of-age story, was set against the 1999 Kargil War. A major part of the film was shot in Ladakh, and actual army officers were also part of the shoot. Hrithik Roshan’s fans still consider the film as one of his best performances.</p>
