Give me some sunshine, give me some rain, I want to grow all again!

Honestly, I am still in hangover of the movie, 3 Idiots.

It touched me, it made me to think, it made me to laugh, took me down the memory lane (10 years back to my IIT days), it made me to do a bit soul searching. It is hard to explain what exactly I felt, because so many things happened to me, all at same time.

The important message it gives about our grading system and one’s ability to question the current status. The actual implementation of education reforms might be far away from reality in current India, but it at least makes us to think about the need to think out-of-the-box.

The story telling has been powerful, through series of well thought characters. Most important question being asked is about human relationships and pursuing one’s dreams.

Throughout the movie I felt; only Chetan can raise such question and the plot of the movie and the subject is pretty much belongs to him. With due respect to the ability of Mr. Hirali’s story telling, but in my opinion, Chetan’s idea has been adopted to this movie completely and obviously some changes are made to add melodrama and emotions.

Anyways, it is a complete movie and certainly it has asked a very good question. But, personally for me, it opened my book of memories and time I had in IIT. First thing I did after watching the movie, is call my hostel mate, who was my close friend!

Give me some sunshine, give me some rain, I want to grow all again. Want to go back to 1998 and start all over again!
