Darsheel safary (Ishaant as most of know now) steals the show. He has been the cynosure throughout. From the naughty classroom scenes to senti moments during boarding school, there is no age bar to get involved into his action. It is very certain that u will be glued to the silver screen. Excellent effort!! Aamir khan deserves appreciation for putting himself into a character role and not allowing the 'Aamir' factor to come in for pushing in the commericial aspect to the movie.
The story line was catchy, it had every aspect of entertainment... with message. The laughther of the kids and the weaping women (Certainly not for 250 bucks paid in PVR ;) ) in theatre speaks volume about the success of the movie.
Screenplay was awesome, my picks from the flick...
- "3 X 9 = 3" graphics, height of imagination! well executed by CG folks. This certainly would triggered numerous childhood imaginations.
- The book painting depicting seperation of the kid when Ishaant is put into boarding school. Very touchy, the message is nailed into audience here!!
- Ishaant's crying scene in hostel bathroom on the first day @ boarding school is very touchy as well.
Shankar, Ehsaan and Loy deserve appreciation for wonderful tracks. The title song reminds me of title song of 'kal ho na ho' and 'breathless' otherwise every track is different and well matched to the mood of the storyline.
Somehow felt that the message missed the punch required, screenplay has shaken a bit here. Though the theme was 'every child is special' and the concept was to make the parents understand the same, the screenplay should have involved with Ishaant's parents a bit more. Something like manirathnam's "kannathil muthamittal" which revolves in similar lines of telling story from the child's point of view wherein there was equal opporturnity for other stakeholders such as parents.
'The End' in the movie also tells a story in the form of documentory. The film makers stand up to the audience till end to convey the message!!
Overall it was 'Taare screen par', true glittering stars. If i have to rate the movie in the scale of 5, mine would certainly be 4+. Hoping for many such good movies in future. Hope i am not hoping against hope :(.

Heard its an awesome movie. Didnt hear even a pejorative about the movie. Yet to watch it. Its available online with an extremely vivid DIVx print but refraining myself from watching it. Wanna watch it in the big screen. Aamir looks cute in his casual outfits. He had been invited once to Saregamapa Lil champs show, to which he brought Darsheel too with him. The kid in the show seemed a bit slothful, which made me wonder how Aamir was able to extract the juice out of this kid, that too for a potent movie like this. And I still have that thought, though the reviews about the movie are pretty hovering up about the calibre of the kid. May be, that notion gets chucked off after I watch the movie. Looking for a companion to pull to the theater. :-)) A 4+ from Sachi - should be a great movie then...:-))
Anu.. i haven't seen that show, but Darsheel's performance was great!
yeap...better watch in big screen, its worth it. There are things in terms of good cinematography in the movie which cannot be enjoyed in the DivX.
Hope u will not cry ;)
