Contemporary cinema at its best.
You watch 3 Idiots and realize that Aamir has done it again ! It started with Rang De Basanti which instilled the passion of truthfulness to Taare Zameen par which was a message about child-centric creativity, the similar ideas are propounded in 3 Idiots.
3 Idiots is a mixture of realism and Bollywood Masala which targets a very important, yet subtle issue of our Indian society. Considering that fact that most of the population in India is young and further that most of them pursue sciences as their degree and compete with a gargantuan mass of peers to stand where they are right now, the story just aims to get some saneness in our society, which the old wise men argue and the younger ones forget. Think and learn things for the love of knowledge, rather than the desire of success. It highlights the essential flaw in our system, that the person studying in IIT's and IIM's is not because of his passion for technology/managing skills but because of his academic abilities.
A contemporary theme executed with contemporary brilliance and carefully dramatized masala to keep the audience entertained. If the medium budget films did well last year, mainly because of the realism in them, big budget like this has all the ingredients for a blockbuster. The plot focuses of inventive thinking, engineering design which, I , personally well relate to and share similar opinions. The plot is like any Masala movie, with a protagonist which desires a change in opinions and a climax which shatters the mindset of the pessimist, a love story, a friendship packed with chirps of comic relief. The strong theme just completes the movie and drives the message straight to the eye. Aamir deserves most of the credits for his acting while Vidhu Vinod Chopra and his team have done a commendable job with the sets, locales and editing and lighting. Hats Off ! 10/10
P.S. : before watching the movie, i was shocked to hear a German and a Ukranian going bonkers about the movie. such is the brilliance of contemporary bolly cinema.
