In this action-packed episode of Cyrus Says, filmmaker Apoorva Lakhia takes us through his incredible journey — from the chaos of managing 10,000 extras on the set of Lagaan to leaving Aamir Khan behind as the production bus drove off in Bhuj. Apoorva opens up about how he brought Hollywood-style discipline to Bollywood, sharing hilarious and intense moments from the shoot.

He also recounts his terrifying skydiving experience in Thailand, where a parachute failure led to a crash landing and a broken leg — and how he was made to jump again immediately to conquer the fear. Add to that his obsession with superbikes, wild biker gang adventures, and stories of working with legends like Mira Nair, Ang Lee, and on The Sopranos.

This is a conversation filled with adrenaline, humour, and surprising insights into filmmaking, stunts, and life itself. Don’t miss it!
