->3 Idiots is about 3 friends - Rancho (Aamir Khan), Farhan (Madhavan) and Raju (Sharman Joshi), doing their engineering in one of the top colleges in the country which is run by a weirdo Sahastrabudhhe (Boman Irani). Like most professional colleges in the competitive world that we live in, its all about scoring the highest marks. The result? Mental pressure, rise in suicide rates and a lot more. With almost every parent wanting their son / daughter to be a engineer or a doctor, the director also talks about the lack of passion for the profession amongst students.

->3 Idiots Movie Review

What works for 3 Idiots

Rajkumar Hirani once again takes up a socially relevant issue and successfully conveys the message, while entertaining the audience with humor, without getting too preachy.
Except Boman Irani’s character, all the characters in the college are easy to relate to.
Dialogues written for Aamir in the film are fantastic and would work big time with the audience.
The music is good, All Izz Well rocks!
Aamir Khan looks young and almost perfect for the character of Rancho. He is brilliant with his comic timing and equally good in emotional sequences.
Aamir’s character is very similar to Munnabhai - witty and funny with a heart of gold.
Sharman Joshi and Madhavan are good, not much scope to perform though.
