Simply Perfect
Let's be realistic.
It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
This is my 2nd best bollywood movie, 1st is 3 idiots.
Always make your child comfortable with situations he is talented in. Great movie.
This movie is about education.What a Student feel when he's at school.What it feel when you're got stample as stupid.This Movie Have A Good Plot,I mean its drag us to follow the main character (Ishan) Life Slowly.So we know what kind of kid the main character is.what is his world,what is his hobbies.So when he got the problems of his life.we feel like he feel when he got his problem.So its drag you to his life.All Students in the world must watch this movie,especially if you're stupid.But i hate to say that bicause There's no stupid kid.
Over the last few weeks I've watched about a half dozen Indian movies and almost all of them star Aamir Khan and offer extended scenes of colorful song and dance numbers. Being a new film experience for me, I thought those details were worth noting, as I don't know how far that stereotype goes.The story here, though a good one for it's subject material, I thought was almost too simplistic and straightforward, as one could pretty easily figure out what the outcome would be. The learning disability that young Ishaan (Darsheel Sagary) had wasn't some big mystery, but a simple case of dyslexia. For that reason, I couldn't understand why he wasn't taken more seriously when he made the statement in my summary line above during one of his classroom experiences. It seems a perceptive teacher should have picked up on that hint long before Ram Shankar Nikumbh (Khan) came along.There's a part of me that always wants to caution about the way a certain type of message is conveyed about children. The saying that 'every child is special' bothers me somewhat, in as much as if we elevate every child to that level, then we've simply redefined what's normal. So that winds up saying that if every child is special then no child is. The better way to phrase such a concept to my mind is that every child is special to someone, and that all children have the right to every opportunity life can afford them. I don't want to give the wrong impression here. I have four grandchildren and they're all special to me, even if they're not going to be world class athletes or the next Einstein. Or maybe one of them will, who knows?With that out of the way, I have to comment on the young actor portraying Ishaan. Darsheel Safary is more talented than a lot of adult actors I've seen, and ran through an amazing arc of emotions that I simply found incredible. I really can't imagine how he pulled off some of the scenes he was required to carry. Quite amazing to my mind, enough so that I would state that in this case, he was pretty special.
