All is Well
About one year before, my friends recommended an Indian movie to me and told me it is a comedy can make me cry. Frankly speaking, I didn’t believe that because I haven’t been moved by a movie for a long time. But the truth is that I watched it with full of curiousness and cried with full of touching.
‘Never judge a book by its cover. ’, which is my teacher told me. Please don’t be misled by the name ‘Three Idiots’, what the movie teaches you are much more than bored laughing. Exactly, we can not easily define it a comedy, it just tells a lesson with humors, easy commons, happiness and sadness, which is how to treat your friendships, how to grasp your true love and how to cherish your kinships.
Life is all about listening to your heart and chasing your dreams. That's the essence of ‘Three Idiots’ directed by the supremely talented RajKumar Hirani. Three Idiots is not about idiots or nincompoops. It's about three engineering students who believe in 'I'll Do It On my Terms' and that are what the three characters achieve in life.
After watching, you might think that it is a serious movie. It certainly is, but it takes on the system in the lighter vein. There is not a single dull moment in the movie. The songs are done well and the journey towards climax is interesting. When we felt Pia is missing in the scene, Farhan and Raju pick her up from her marriage. In the climax When chatur insults ranchho is just a school teacher and he is a millionaire, the reality of aamir is uncovered. It clears tells us that it is not really required to just race in the corporate world and take pride that is successful. You can always lead a simple, peaceful life.... Do all you want and still achieve what could change the world.
One more thing! You cannot draw parallels with any other films, past or present, successful or unsuccessful. And though people may draw parallels with GHAJINI or the MUNNABHAI series [directed by RajKumar Hirani ], it would be sacrilege to do so. Three Idiots [based on a novel 'Five Point Someone' by Chetan Bhagat] doesn't tilt,
it stands tall.
To cut a long story short, all you'd like to say about the film is, All is very, very, very, very, very well. Watch this film to know what it means!
Two friends Farhan and Raju embark on a quest for their lost buddy. As they make their way through the perilous landscape, another journey begins: their inner journey through memory lane and the story of their friend - the irrepressible free-thinker Rancho, who, in his unique way, touched and changed their lives.
It's a story of their college days that swings between Rancho's romance with the spirited Pia and his clash with and oppressive mentor, Viru Sahastrabudhhe. And then one day, suddenly, Rancho vanishes...
Who was he? Where did he come from? Why did he leave? The friend who influenced and inspired them to think creatively and independently, even as the conformist world called them three idiots. Where is the original idiot now?
Very often, we've read news-reports of students committing suicides because they've to live up to the family's pressure/expectations. This film depicts it at the very start, when a student commits suicide. But the issue doesn't end there, for Three Idiots raises a pertinent question: Was it suicide or murder?
Hirani balances the rough and smooth incidents in their lives beautifully. The sequences in the campus, right from the ragging sequence at the start, to Omi's speech when the word 'chamatkaar' is changed to 'balatkaar' [superb; will bring the house down], to the trio getting caught in an embarrassing situation at the reception of Karenna’s sister [Mona Singh], to the dinner sequence at Sharman's house, to Kareena and Aamir driving Sharman's seriously ill father on their bike to the hospital... the funny moments would make your jaws ache.
The interval point is a shocker. The point at which the first half ends will leave you stunned. Now what was that? Klahanie mein twist!
The mystery is solved soon after the intermission ends and a new journey begins. That's one of the attractions of the film. Just when you think that the story would be solved, a new story begins. Of course, the pace dips slightly in its second hour, especially during the delivery sequence of Mona [which may appear filmy to a few],
