3 IDIOTS - "All is Well"

Give me some sunshine
Give me some rain
Give me another chance
I wanna grow up once again
Na na na….Na na na….Na na na….Na na nana na….

My whole day went humming these lines and i am sure it had the same effect on you.Kudos to Shantanu Moitra and Swanand Kirkire (never heard of this name before,but definitely promising).

What a movie.....Simply awwweesssssommme. After a long time i watched a movie in a theatre and laughed my heart out.At the same time there were some good twists and some tense moments which would shake you.Another Hirani direction, in the lines of Munnabhai, with great script,flawless screenplay,witty dialogues and superb acting by Aamir aka Rancho.Amir khan u are the undoubted "badshah" of Bollywood,Jahampana kabool kijiye :-).But it wouldnt have been the box office hit it is now,without the support of Maddy aka Farhan and Sharman aka Raju, who were at the best of there elements and great actors in their own.

I think this is one movie even the hard lined critics will recommend watching again and again.In fact Vidhu should put up a challenge in the theatres reading "No one can see it just once".The cinematography was too good with great locales ,be it the landscapes of Shimla or the barren beauty of Ladakh.

Despite all the magic of the movie it got itself into controversies.First it was Chetan bhagat putting in his blog how "hurt" he was because his name wasnt associated with the success of the movie and accusing Vidhu and Co. of plagiarism. Well Chetan you have put the foot on the wrong pedal.I think everyone is aware of the contract between you and Vidhu. But Vidhu should try to control his temper,maybe Aamir can help him in this too. And then there were some NGOs who accused the movie of glorifying "ragging". Its really silly to even think of that, after reading the disclaimer at the beginning of the movie and nowhere does the movie seem to convey the message that "suicide" is a way to end your troubles.On the contrary it has brought attention to the issue which nowadays is taking root in our society and needs to be controlled before it blows out of proportion.Well folks dont make much noise "All is weeeellllllllll......."

Like most of Aamir khans movie - RDB,DCH,TZP this movie too inspires you to follow your heart and do things that you are passionate about.It refreshes your college days and takes you back to a time when you had the zeal to do anything you belived in,your hostel days,woh rath 4 baje tak badminton khelna,woh 5 km door rath ko railway station jana coz cigarrettes kahin nahin milti itne raath......and parties....man have you been to a wet party where everyone is drenched and the room is full of water till ankle and the walls are kind of electrocuting and you have best of bollywood dance numbers playing.Those were the best days of my life.And yes we had a Rancho too in our college, Mr. kool - Anuraag Pattnaik. Dude where are you?? They have a made a movie on you....you gotta watch it :-)

A great experience....wholesome entertainment....the credits are rolling but "dil maange more" :-)
