Aal izz well: Fearlssly say I m an Idiot!

I rode my bike with Vishal my roommie, another MBA, for 10 KMs from Mukherjee Nagar to Pitampura to watch the movie “3 Idiot”, spent 150 bucks each and this turned out to be the best investment in recent time I have made. What a movie! Amir did it again- strengthened the image of the Perfectionist. Coupled with Rajkumar Hirani, he took a story which is a best seller book by Chetan Bhagat's Five Point Somesome , more famous among youngsters and twisted it (rather added some researched stuffs) to make a movie not only for youngsters but also for elders and young/old parents.
Amir played Rancho who is the young, revolutionary and representative of new generation guy. He grouped with 2 other idiots, Madhvan and Sharman, attempts to fight against the current education system. We used to talk about the same in our MBA days. The system which can produce only good clerks, restricts the flight of mind in the name of discipline and limits, and moulds the mind in the prescribed/ predefined structure, which has no relevance in current scenario and left no scope for independent thoughts. The movie is the best example how a serious topic like this can be presented with fun and humor.
If I come to the acting part- Kareena is again good as she has not tried anything extra and naturally fits the character. Showed again that kiss karte samay naak beech me nahi aati. Sharman Joshi and Madhvan have shown why they are real underrated actors of Indian Film Industry. Boman Irani has become the favorite (the character of the movie) for Hirani. He again played a professor and this is totally different from that Munnabhai Dean, it is a typical engineering college professor, reminds me of one of my professors of my college days. And I am sure all engineers and MBAs have recalled at least one of their professors. Oops I didn’t talk about Amir’s performance. Does it require by the way? Sorry I can’t do it. One word- Speechless.
A must watch for all who have gone to engineering college/ MBA/ any professional course in one stage of their life, a suggested watch for our policy makers and Education ministry, Again a must watch for parents- present as well future.
Informational warning: This movie may awake sleeping entrepreneur in you. (MBAs!)
I will give it 5 stars out of 5.
