## Synopsis

Lakshya (transl. Aim) is a 2004 Indian Hindi-language coming-of-age war drama film directed by Farhan Akhtar, written by his father Javed Akhtar and produced by Ritesh Sidhwani under the banner of Excel Entertainment, with Ronnie Screwvala serving as co-producer under distributor UTV Motion Pictures.
