3 Idiots - Movie Review

3 Idiots is without doubt an excellent movie. The movie was supposed to be very brilliant by all the viewers since it was going to come from Raju Hirani, the Munnabhai director and Aamir Khan, the actor, producer and director the Indians trust in. The movie is a good one but not that good of what the people thought before the movie was realeased. It is a nice timepass. One of the messages is for the youth to track their passion instead of joining the rat race is also exemplary. However, giving a second look to the movie several flaws can be seen very easily in the storyline as well as the treatment. Loosely inspired by the novel Five Point Someone, the movie has shown the lead characters as black or white instead of grey, the real life ones. The director has played with the characters as puppets in his hands instead of allowing them to develop normally. The best example is of Chatur (played excellently by the hitherto less known actor Omi). The movie has exaggerated several things and the biggest drawback of the movie in my opinion is that the storyteller challenges the intelligence of the viewers at several places. There are several incidents in the movie totally indigestible for a sensible viewer. Perhaps Raju Hirani conveniently overlooked the fact that his audience is not the David Dhawan’s audience who is expected to leave the brains at home before leaving for the theatre.

The message for the students to give precedence to knowledge over marks and follow their passion is definitely admirable. The movie ...
