Blog3:My reflections on the film '3 idiots'






'3 idiots',as the highest-grossing Bollywood film of all time in India, is the eternal classic in people's impression.Because of the superficial and unattractive title, this excellent film has been neglected for a long time by most people.Honestly saying,this film hasn't waste any minute during its 164 minutes.So I want to introduce this film to you and show some of my reflections on this film.


Raju,Farhan and Rancho are 3 engineering students studied in Imperial College of Engineering(ICE) in India.They're roomates.ICE is famous for the marks of its students and the rigid and strict educational rules have badly influenced many students which even lead some suicide events.Raju is studying for raising his family and makes them get out of the poverty.Farhan studies engineering bacause it's his father's dream over his own dream of being a wildlife photographer.Only Rancho learns engineering bacause of his natural passion to the machines. Rancho has a great talent in engineering, he can always make some miracles not only get his classmates convinction but also move his instructor.


There are really some hilarous moments when they are with each other.Under the strict criteria and the pressure of their instructor, they don't lose passion to life and to the things they're keen on.Finally,with Rancho's encouragement, Raju overcame his feer to engineering and succeeded in an significant interview of a big firm, Farhan got up the courage to pursuad his father then bacame a famous photographer, meanwhile,Rancho himself,kept his aspire to engineering and eventually became an admirable scientists.


This movie can lead you into a different world with both laughter and tears.You can always cry at the last second and then laugh at the next second.Though the '3 idiots' exist as an inspirational film,it can present a new appearance to audience.The interesting but deep plots attract the audience so much.The film just wants us to believe that success in studying is not achieved by solely memorizing definitions given by textbooks or professors, but by understanding and applying the concepts. Moreover, one should follow excellence of one's own, not success, as success will come itself if excellence is followed.I think that's the truth showed by this film.


Those following words said by Rancho really arise my reflections on life"You're in a fiece race,even if you're the first,it's no use.Can your knowledge be enriched? No,the only thing increased is the pressure.Here is the college, not a big autoclave." "Our heart is weaker than our imagined,you should learn to console and heal it frequently and tell yourself 'all is well' "


Finally I will end this blog with the sentence appeared in the film"Follow excellence,success will follow you"Hope you can enjoy yourself as well after watching this film just like me~~~~~~~

  1. Thank you for introducing such an interesting movie, Xiaoxu! (^_^) I remember that I have only watched several minutes of this film, and what impressed me a lot was that a student committed suicide in their college. However, I didn’t know why as I didn’t watch along at that time. Erm, perhaps you could explain this to me? (^^) As for this blog, I think I agree with you on the opinion that success in studying is not just memorizing the textbooks. The three of them followed their hearts and realized their dreams. I hope that someday I can be a person like them.

  2. After reading your blog, I cannot wait to watch this movie. You know the translation of this film is not good in Chinese.So I think this film is a superficial comedy before.When reading your introduction, I was attracted by your words especially "This movie can lead you into a different world with both laughter and tears". I think I will be the person who like this "comic" movie

  4. I am surprised the PRC scholars also like Bollywood. Maybe the culture of education is not so different anywhere

    Collocation errors:
    arise my reflections -set me thinking/caused me to reflect
    than our imagined - than we imagined
