Pandy Pandey
So I haven’t seen Mangal Pandey : The Rising yet, but I shall educate and illuminate you with my commentary. Because it is good that way.
The Captain Gordon guy in the movie by Toby I-share-my-name-with-a-Dog-and the-kid-who-plays-Spidey Stephens is so blatantly a character meant to be nothing more than a white guy friendly face. I don’t buy his role as a necessary plot progression element. He is in the movie so’s white guys will not feel offended when they see this extremely inaccurate historical movie.
Also, if Aamir Khan is such a perfectionist, why is he not bald with a small choti in his head, like a PANDEY at that time would have been?

But but … I hear that Toby I-share-my-name-with-a-Dog-and the-kid-who-plays-Spidey Stephens has a meatier role than the Khan in the movie. Not true?
Very true. But that still doesn’t mean this was not a clever ploy on the fimmakers’ part to include foriegn audiences more effectively.
the problem with the movie si that their is little written about the guy. they could not have made a movie with just the five minute sequence which is actually known about the guy. the movie begins with the message that a lot of fictional stuff has been added to spice things up… 
ah, so. I don’t have a problem with adding stuff as long as it is made explicit that that’s what it is.
