'The end'
Why does the illiterate villager have to hit a sixer on the final ball to defeat his colonial master? Why does the good-for-nothing student have to win the cycle race against the two-time champion? Why does the deaf-mute boy have to take ten wickets to play for the national team? Why does the loser at the call center have to win his girl in the last chapter, that too after saving the center? Why must the kid wizard always come out on top against his all-powerful enemy?
Why are such great stories marred by utterly predictable (yet unrealisitic) endings?

Couldn't agree more...Many a times, I get a similar feeling...And I too say to myself, why was THIS, the chosen end?
Because people need a hero to look upto. They need to be constantly reminded that its possible to achieve the impossible.
@vivek: But are people so gullible to really beleive all that goes on in the movies? Most people know that it is only a story, a piece of the writers imagination.
And now that you mention it, when was the last time that you were really inspired by a movie to do something?
pravs..i totally agree with u...and i have pondered over this perticular ending of "lagaan" a thousand times!
because...u wont remember the story, if it had another ending :)
There are a lot of movies that have helped me do a lot of things ... its not the direct implication but how you relate your reel events to your real life events ... whatever the case but I hope that they keep making such movies ;)
"the end ..da style" hona chahiye !
