One of the best Bollywood movie that I have ever watched even though is a bit lengthy but a true entertaining, enlightening and heartwarming film that remains etching in memory.3 Idiots, a 2009 Indian comedy film directed by Rajkumar Hirani based on the novel Five Point Someone - What not to do at IIT! written by Chetan Bhagat in 2004. The film tells a story of three engineering students whose friendship stands the test of time.
The film begins with two friends, Farhan Qureshi (R. Madhavan) and Raju Rastogi (Sharman Joshi) embark on a quest to find a lost buddy, Ranchhoddas "Rancho" Shamaldas Chhanchad (Aamir Khan). Enroute, their memories drift back to the days when three of them were all college roommates in Imperial College of Engineering (ICE) ten years ago.
Farhan wants to become a wildlife photographer, but has joined engineering college to fulfil his father's wish. Raju is studying to get his family out of poverty while Rancho studies for his simple passion in machines who believes that one should follow excellence, not success as success will take care of itself if excellence is followed. With his different approach Rancho incurs the wrath of dean of college, Professor Viru Sahastrabudhhe (ViruS)(Boman Irani). Rancho irritates his lecturers by giving creative and unorthodox answers and confronts ViruS after fellow student Joy Lobo (Ali Fazal) hangs himself in his dormitory room. Joy had requested an extension on his major project on compassionate grounds that his father had suffered a stroke but ViruS refused, saying that he himself was completely unmoved by his own son's accidental death after being hit by a train. Rancho denounces the rat race, dog-eat-dog, mindless rote learning mentality of the institution, blaming it for Lobo's death. Threatened by Rancho's talent and free spirit, ViruS labels him as an "idiot" and attempts on a number of occasions to destroy his friendship with Farhan and Raju, warning them and their parents to steer clear of Rancho ... ...
There are few funniest moments in the film and one of it is when Rancho replaces the vernacular word chamatkar (serve, serving) with balatkar (screw) in the written speech prepared for Teachers' Day at the Imperial College of Technology and the insufferable Chatur Ramalingam (Omi Vaidya) who mindlessly memories the speech without noticing that anything is amiss. His speech becomes the laughing stock of the audience.
"Welcome our Chief guest, the Minister of Education. Welcome our respected Mr. Chairman and our respected teachers and schoolmates ... The reason our school can be so successful is only one person's contribution, Dr. Viru Sahhastrabuddhe! Give him a big hand ... He's a great guy really ... For 32 years, he has been continuously raping (the original word chamatkar means 'doing wonders' whereas balatkar means 'rape') college students ... We believe that he will continue that. It's so astonishing that a man can rape so many students perfectly in his life! His perseverance must come from his practicing! He devoted every moment to raping! We should learn from him! The students here will soon be all over the world. Wherever we go, we will continue to rape! We will make I.C.E proud! We will show everyone that our ability to rape is incomparable!"
"Good evening, Mr. Minister of Education. You gave us one thing that we need most ... Breasts (the original word means funds). Everyone has boobs but they all hide it ... No one would generously give them to others! But you gave your boobs to this rapist ... Now you'll see how he uses of it! (Verse) A loud fart is respectable ... A medium fart is tolerable ... A slight fart is fearful ... A silent fart is unbearable ... !"
Watch it and it sure make you laugh and cry at the same time for every moment of the three hours film and in the process in learning many golden rules for life. You will definitely love this awesome and remarkable film!
Whatever the problem in life is ...
just say to yourself 'Aal Izz Well' ...
This wont solve your problems but it will give the courage to face it.
Chase Excellence and success will follow.
Life is not about getting marks, grades but chasing your dreams.
