Aamir Khan

The first time I saw this guy was in the movie the 3 Idiots, it was my first time to watch an Indian Film. And to my surprise it really was a fun movie to watch, I love the characters and the story line.

My husband and I have been watching again and again, specially on the weekends. And my little daughter has learned a few indian words.

This guys is known for his perfectionism, so when we saw the movie he produced and acted in Taare Zameen Par, again he never fails to make us laugh, but the touching story always made me cry at the end of the film, even after watching it for so many times now.

It surprises me to see that their cinematography is far better than ours, and specially the story lines in his movies, it varies and the plots are good. So I guess it's not a surprise to see his films garnered awards. He is the first india actor to establish his name in the Hindi cinema, not only that but as a director and producer as well.

Here is the 2 films I have watched so far:

3 Idiots

3 friends meets during their college years, Rancho the person who touch their life and given them the courage to pursue their dream, disappeared after their graduation day, after how many years they team up with another student who had a grudge against Rancho and the only one who knows his whereabouts begins their journey in finally learning who is Rancho.

This films encourages a person to think freely and not always follow the crowd even if it means standing up against the system.

To pursue excellence in life and success will follow you with it's pants down.

For me this is a 5 star rating.




Taare Zameen Par (Every Child is Special):

A very touching story about a boy who was misunderstood not only by his family but by society itself.

We sometimes overlooked the disability in our child as just being hard headed, refuse to listen and lack of discipline. But in order to help a child to survive in this world, we need to see and accept them for who they are. Not what they can become.

The key to a child success is the parents love, understanding, and an open mind to be able to see clearly the child's problem. And a teacher who have the heart to help.

Again, another 5 star rating.
