I watched 3 IDIOTS at PVR Cinemas thereby making my long & lovely Christmas holiday have a wonderful end. How? Well, I watched it with my friends, my high school friends.
My verdict – Ensure that you have a ‘dhekko’ of this movie. It is absolutely worth the moolah. This movie is definitely one of the finest produced this year.
The concept of the movie takes off from where Aamir left off in Dil Chahta hai. It is the story of three guys (3 Idiots) who meet at an engineering college, become room mates and then become the best of friends. One of their less illustrious friends Chatur Ramalingam reminded me of a friend in school days. So did few others too.
This very feature of the movie wherein the audience can relate to the characters and the situations is what works in making this movie the hit of the year.
The Characters & Plot:
Aamir Khan, if he can make it to the Education industry, he can well transform the entire education delivery system in the country by the intelligent ideas portrayed in Taare Zameen Par & 3 Idiots system of teaching and learning. Nevertheless, the beauty is, we will only get to watch these beautiful teaching techniques only in a movie, as our Indian education system will never change.
Boman Irani has given a great performance as usual again proving to one and all that he cannot become an effective Principal/Headmaster – All his students tend to get the better of him in his movies. First Main Hoon Na then Munnabhai MBBS & now 3 Idiots. He has again done it with ease.
Madhavan and Sharman have under acted and done it amazingly well. Their characters are definitely not the main catch of the script but the end scenes and performances given by both of them, takes the story and those characters to a totally new level.
The story begins with two friends Farhan (Madhavan) and Raju (Sharman) trying to hunt down their old friend Rancho (Aamir) 10 years after they completed their engineering. This journey leads them through many a twist in the midst of which we are given a detailed account of their years at the engineering college. They manage to even gate crash Kareena’s (Aamir’s love interest) marriage in their search.
I would like to divulge the details rather the entire movie but do not want to spoil the fun for those who are yet to see it.
So Watch it and come back impressed by Aamir’s performance coupled with Sharman & Madhavan playing the perfect foil.
My advice: DO NOT miss the first 10 minutes of the movie.
Movie Rating:4/5
To bolo: All isz Wellll……………………….
