It wasn't a tragedy but everyone around me in d multiplex were sobbing.. even i was.. It wasn't a romantic movie(over-rated genre in indian cinema) yet there were many youngsters n oldies alike watching it. To top it all, the hero of the movie was a 10 year old dyslexic kid.. which director in this world make such a movie.. Aamir Khan of course. Aamir khan has turned all unconventional films lnto entertaining commercial ones(Sarfarosh, Lagaan, Rang De Basanti etc.).
Darsheel Sure does deserve the best debutant if not the Best actor award this year.
Tisca as the helpless mom does an excellent job.
Aamir in d short role of art teacher who has gone through his share of problems is excellent once again.
Aamir has handled d subject brilliantly which could have easily turned into a preachy Docudrama is made into an entertaining n touching movie.
Hats off to aamir for making one of the most touching movie ever.
What I liked about the movie:
1)Darsheel's performance.
2)The pace of the movie
3)Aamir's direction
What I didn't like about the movie:
Nothing
Would you recommend this movie to your friend: Yes
