Happened to watch a wonderful movie recently- 3 Idiots starring Amir Khan, Madhavan,Sharman Joshi,Boman Irani,Omi vaidhya. The movie starts with Madhavan(farhan) and Joshi's(Raju)journey in search of their lost college friend Amir khan(Rancho). Farhan narrates their 4 years of engineering life in Imperial College of Engineering the most reputed Institution. Their first day starts with the usual ragging by seniors. Farhan and Raju are ragged by them whereas Rancho escapes from that. He applies the physics we study in school and give the senior back nicely. All 3 become friends and Farhan is inspired by Rancho's every actions- he applies his engineering knowledge, very friendly to all, takes everything very easily, insists a small boy working there to join a school. He is not bookish and advices his professors also to teach by giving practical knowledge rather than theoritical. He wants students to study with interest not for the sake of getting a degree. Farhan who wants to become a wild life photographer sacrifices his dream and studies engineering. Raju whose family is very poor always have the dream of studying, becoming engineer and safeguard his family. These 3 always have so much of fun and get caught by the dean Boman Irani(Virus) everytime. Initially the dean excuses and there comes a situation where Raju gets caught and dean wants to dismiss him. When Raju wanted him to forgive, dean says then rancho should get dismissed- who is the target for him always. We all move to the front corner of the seat to watch what happens then. Amidst this there is a love story between Rancho and Pia- kareena Kapoor who is dean's daughter. What happens next for all the 3 -did they achieve what they wanted to, what happened to missing Amir is the rest of the movie.
The movie directed by Rajkumar Hirani is very much realistic where there is no show off, heroism, extras. How the students speak funily, that has been made as comedy track. There are so many emotional scenes where I couldnot control my tears. But immediately the mood of audience is changed by a comical scene.The students short names the dean- ViruSahastraBudhe as Virus. The movie has made changes in me and so many thoughts running in my mind. It insists that why should we study only for the sake of parents or for getting a degree without trying to achieve what we dream. What they show in the movie actually happened in my life too. Being an Electrical Engineer I had only theoritical knowledge. If a circuit does not work at home now I may feel it very difficult to repair(?!). What did I do in 4 years. Just got a job at the end where I work with with no much satisfaction. I think a lot if I have to continue my job to get only salary and respect in society or try to increase my talent in my areas of interest.
There are few scenes which are not practical like - college students trying to make Pia's sister deliver a baby by giving pressure. But there are so many to get to know. Movie full of positive vibrations, always say 'All is well'. All will be well . These 3 words have become mantra for everyone who have watched it. The character names sound good like Ranchoddas Shamaldas Chanchad / Rancho / Phunsukh Wangdu. The 3 heroes have scope and performed well equally. I was stunned to see 44 yr old Amir looking exactly like a college student. So much he had worked out. Omi Vaidhya (Chathur) is the comedian and the way he speaks hindi and english is so prominent whenever he appears on screen we cannot resist laughing particularly saying 'Balaathkar' instead of 'chamatkar'. As a whole, movie is awesome and it is a must watch. It is better not to remake the movie in tamil casting masala heroes. Directors should be very careful in selecting heroes without spoiling the beauty of the movie.
