Call Bhuvan Alexander Hamilton the way I can headcanon every character having the hots for him (Gauri, Elizabeth, Captain Russell, Lakha).

idk how anyone stans elizabeth over gauri in lagaan?! like one is a beautiful brown goddess and the other is,,? like yeah it was nice of elizabeth to help the villagers and bhuvan but did anyone really think bhuvan ever gave her a second thought? him and gauri were practically married from the beginning. this was literally a story abo0ut the indian villagers fighting to get out from under the thumb of the white oppressors, and you guys wanted a white woman to win the love of this man that she’s known for a week over the brown girl who’s been in love with him her entire life. wild.

At the beginning of Lagaan (2001), nearby villages hear of the outlandish bet Bhuvan has made with the English and are ready to attack him. Bhuvan's neighbors rush to shield him, Lakha being the first to reach him.

When Lakha's treachery is revealed, the villagers chase him into the temple, where he barricades himself. Bhuvan pushes through the mob and is the first to reach him.

No I’m just thinking about how when the villagers are angry at Bhuvan for agreeing to the challenge and they’re rushing to attack him, Bhuvan just stands their with his chin held high and Lakha is rushing and is the first to reach him to shield him, and how when Elizabeth outs him, Lakha flees to the temple with the villagers on his heels, and he barricades himself inside and Bhuvan is rushing up the stairs, fighting his way through the throng and is the first to reach the door, and when Lakha makes his awesome save the next day, he’s the first to rush to hug Bhuvan.

Bhuvan from Lagaan for the send me a character thing please!

Sexuality Headcanon: Bi (side-eyes OT3) Gender Headcanon: Cis A ship I have with said character: Bhuvan/Gauri, Bhuvan/Gauri/Elizabeth, Bhuvan/Lakha for crackship purposes A BROTP I have with said character: Bhuvan & Ishmael, Bhuvan & Yashodamai, Bhuvan & Team A NOTP I have with said character: Bhuvan/Captain Russell, I guess? A random headcanon: Stealing @dream-to-be-frog 's headcanon that Lakha was in love with Bhuvan, not Gauri, and extrapolating from there to the headcanon that half the village is thirsting after Bhuvan (Gauri, Elizabeth, Lakha, all those background dancers in Radha Kaise Na Jale...) General Opinion over said character: I just love him -- he's charismatic and optimistic, and hilariously playful, and intense when he needs to be.
