The stories and the narrative of Dil Chahta Hai, Munna Bhai and Tare Zameen Par flow through this film, seamlessly making you feel it is one long continuum.....
The acting is of high class, the dialogues are modern -day, urban, the underlying message of PURSUE WHAT YOU LIKE is very "in with the times " and in keeping with the ethos of a Nation on the verge of great times....
Boman Irani plays a longish role with great aplomb as do Amir Khan, Madhavan and the third "idiot".....
The IIM, B campus looks cute, as do some of the locales in Ladakh...particularly the turquoise blue lake( towards the end)....
The over-done caricature of a South Indian student jars as does the length of the film.... a few sub-plots ( Javed Jafri, Child Delivery scene) could have been deleted to condense the film....
Hirani does a good job once again( after the 2 Munna Bhais) but I, for one , can't figure out his obsession with repeated display of urinating men and toilet scenes.... surely, he has managed the humour content quite well even without those ( gross) scenes....
All in all.....Amir Khan maintains his image of a sincere and serious film actor and doles out a good movie..... some of the other Khans will never ever reach his standards ( with the exception of , of course, Yusuf Khan !) , unfortunately !
