The film crew was based at Bhuj and majority of the film shooting took place in various locations around in the Kutch District of Gujarat including the Great Rann of Kutch. The BSF controlled "snow white" Rann within, Villages and Border Security Force (BSF) Posts in Banni grasslands and the Rann, Tera fort village, Lakhpat fort village, Khera fort village and with parts of song filmed on set in Mumbai's Kamalistan Studio.

Just after the film shooting of Refugee finished, the film crew of film "Lagaan" followed up on Bhuj in Kutch and shot the entire film in the region, employing local people and villagers from miles around. A set of a full Village was constructed for the film with typical Kutch style mud houses or huts with thatched straw roofs called bhoongas.
