- TriviaFor authenticity, Ashutosh Gowariker shot a scene at Launch Pad 39A, at Kennedy Space Center in Florida, USA. This is the first Indian film to actually be shot inside the NASA research center.
- GoofsMohan directly attaches the plug in the AC socket for the foot massager he brought from USA. In reality the plug standards of USA and India are different and will not fit in other country's socket. An adapter must be used for compatibility.

Featured review
Different treatment of Patriotism,
Definitely a thoughtful movie. Thanks to Gowariker, gives an insight to the rural parts of India, their lifestyle, concise outlook
Different treatment of Patriotism, AG is quick to know the pulse of his viewers,
SRK has done a brilliant job. I'd read, a leading director who commented on him, that he comes in a package with best designers, director, music, best locations on shoot etc. etc , I strongly recommend him to watch this movie, and would like to know what he could say to this. It was good and a big change to see SRK dancing with children. Star SRK has transformed into character, good!!!. AG has carried simplicity in every angle of the film.
Another good thing is the casting, Ashutosh deserve a big applause for this, all faces were apt for the character. Visuals, music, cinematography in short the whole crew a big applause, you guys had done a wonderful job.
Truly anticipate seeing such movies .
