First of all Id Mubarak and a merry christmas to whoever is reading this. I am updating my blog after maybe 7-8 months.....actually i never thought that i would be updating it.....but a movie changed my mind.....
Bollywood is the eternal caricature of flamboyant glitterati and endless dance sequences to woo audiences with mindless aberrations from the mundane and few can disagree on this point.
The greatest achievement of Taare Zameen Par is that this film has effortlessly achieved all of this with just sheer sensitivity and simplicity.
The best point about TZP is its simplicity..... As the popular saying goes " Its difficuilt to be simple".....TZP is aamir's directorial debut....and he does it with such honesty and simplicity.....
In a way, everyone can relate to it, especially if you have grown up in India where most children are classified as dumb or unintelligent if they "can't" become engineers or doctors. The kid Darsheel is a natural...he guides you through the movie....Its like going back to school....
Another merit of the film is that it is not preachy, it teaches along with providing the required entertainment to the viewers. The film talks about a condition of a child who is finding tough to compete with his classmates but it never talks about it as a disease or a mental disorder to cure. Aamir focuses on the fact that we got to give proper attention to all kids as everyone has his own areas of abilities...
The music of the film is heart warming , melodious , much like S-E-L's previous songs.... "MAA" and "MERA JAHAN" are the best songs in the movie.... "TZP" (title song) and "KHOLO KHOLO" are not much behind.... and "BHEJA KUM", "JAME RAHO" are situational songs which gel well with the storyline
my movie rating 4.5/5 with a thumbs up !!!
my music rating 4/5
Was lucky to meet both AAMIR and the kid DARSHEEL after the movie.... the show i attended was a special screening....for dyslexic authorities and bisleri who was the sponsor....(u kno that thing called 'MARKETING' lolz)... will be uploading pics as soon as i buy a bluetooth device...(hopefully soon!!!).
why would i watch a movie with a nonsense story and innumerable song and dance sequences ...courtesy farah khan.... I would definately not WELCOME myself to a theatre to watch some stupid sex/vulgar jokes...neither would i go to watch a movie to see someone dancing in/with a towel....and whatever HR is thinking (karzzzz !!)
do yourself a favour ... watch this movie.... i am sure you will like it.... and i am not getting paid to write this!!!.....its just a personal opinion....
Lastly HAPPY NEW YEAR to all of you. ENJOY ... TATA...buhbye!!!....
