Taare Zameen Par.......

When was the last time a Hindi movie made a huge impact on me ?? This was the question I was asking to myself after seeing the directorial debut of Amir Khan for the second time.......The answer to the question will be a list of hindi movies,which I am sure will not be very long :)

Watching Taare Zameen Par was a great experience as I was able to relate with each and every character of the movie.The movie starts with showcasing a typical Indian family with parents and their two kids.The older kid is brilliant in studies as well as in sports while the younger one is good only in Painting.......The younger kid portrayed by Darsheel Safary is living in his own world.The problem is he cant understand the words which is called as Dyslexia (I came to know about Dyslexia only after Amir Khan says so in the later part of the movie).The competition in today's world is so intense that its a sin to get less marks and Ishaan has to pay for this sin as his parents send him to a boarding school.Going to the boarding school makes the situation more worse for Ishaan and he just looses his self-confidence and is on the verge of losing his identity.........But in comes a new art teacher who changes Ishaan's perspective towards life and also the other Teacher's perspective towards Ishaan.The role of the teacher is portrayed by Amir Khan in his own style.....He doesnt become too preachy and yet conveys his thoughts to Ishaan.......Just watch the scenes where Amir talks to the kid's parents....These scenes are just too good........The climax with the Painting competition is just too good......

As such there are no negative points except that the kid hardly talks in the second half.....even though he doesnt talk much,he has got a very expressive face which does all the talking.
How many superstars of our Film industry would have dared to do such kind of movie ?? Atleast I cant think of any other name.This is what makes Amir Khan what he is.......Amir didnt take the focus away from the kid throughout the movie which is commendable.....The songs are just too good and go well with the situations......The lyrics by Prasoon Joshi are awesome.....The song dedicated to mother is simply great....and music is also very soothing.....The film will easily wipe out all the awards with the only competition being Chak De.......I hope Amir Khan makes movies in which the script is the king and not the so-called actors [I hope SRK and Salman are listening]
Take a bow Amir.....you ROCK !!!!
