Watch a movie from a country other than your own country or not of your country's origin.
Oh! This challenge brought back memories. So, I decided to watch a movie again not from my own country. Guess what I picked? The classic 3 Idiots! Yes, that legendary Indian movie with all its fun, madness, and lessons. Believe me, it’s not just a movie, it’s an emotion. I laughed, I cried, I thought about life—all in one ride!
You know that scene—“All is well!” I still say that whenever life tries to give me a heart attack. Such relatable scenes and funny characters. Rancho’s words just hit differently. It’s like when your friend gives you life advice and suddenly becomes Einstein. I even tried repeating some Hindi words like “Bhai” and “Jugaad” with my friends—felt like a Bollywood actor for a second.
Honestly, watching movies from other countries is a ticket to a whole new world. New cultures, new slangs, new fun!
Talk about the main idea of the movie
The central theme of 3 Idiots is quite straightforward yet extremely strong--do not live as others do but as you want to. It is three college friends trying to discover life, dreams and friendship. The film provides us with a lesson that excellence is not run after by success but later. The hero Rancho is able to demonstrate everyone that it is not necessary to mug up the books as robots, but to freely learn with curiosity.
Which is my favorite part? The pants-down study: excel and success will subsequently follow! Hilarious, right? However, it is also true. It is a film that tells you-- hey, just because society tells you to run through the rat race, do not do it. You do what makes your heart dance to.
To be honest 3 Idiots is not a movie but a life guide covered in laughs, feelings, and bunch of fun.

Share the characters
Character | Short Brief |
---|---|
Rancho (Ranchoddas Shamaldas Chanchad) | The genius with a golden heart. Loves learning, hates rote memorization. Always says “All is well!”**. |
Farhan Qureshi | The guy who wanted to be a wildlife photographer but got stuck in engineering because of family pressure. Pure heart! |
Raju Rastogi | A sweet, nervous boy from a poor family. Always praying for good marks. His character shows the struggle of fear vs courage. |
Virus (Dr. Viru Sahastrabuddhe) | The strict college principal. Nicknamed “Virus” for obvious reasons. Represents the old-school education pressure. |
Pia | Virus’s daughter and Rancho’s love interest. Smart, bold, and funny. Helps the boys in tough situations. |

Farhan and Raju here in the this scene with one of my favourite dialogue of Farhan "When a friend fails, it hurts... but when a friend comes first, it hurts even more🤣."
And don't forget this scene.....

Describe the plot and setting of the movie.
The 3 Idiots film takes place in India, primarily within one of the most popular engineering institution of higher learning. It is the story of three inseparable friends Rancho, Farhan and Raju who live in the mad world of over-the-top professors, family and pressures, and the perfect race towards the highest grades.
The book hops concerning college life and the present and displays how their adventure into the wild prepared their future. Whether it is comical accidents in the hostel, heart melting scenes, the film is perfectly balanced between comedy and teachings.
What is best about it? And it is not only about studies. It is all about friendship, following dreams and breaking unnecessary rules in societies. And also beautiful sceneries that have been shot in such exotic places like Ladakh the movie looks just as good as it feels. It is an emotional roller coaster all the way!

If you were the Director of the movie what would you do differently?
In the case of 3 Idiots, being its director, I would probably do 90% nothing since it is greatly a masterpiece already. However, it is in every filmmaker to add his/her own twist, right? To begin with, I would allocate a little more screen time to Farhan photography journey. I see him clicking wild animals in cool jungles---that would be epic!
And I would so love to see more of the story of Pia. She was intelligent and witty yet her aspirations and hardships were not really highlighted. Why must all the fun be reserved to the boys?
Finally, I would just add a comedic moment when Rancho says his All is well expression and no one reacts appropriately, then they all get upset over it only to laugh on their own later. Life is not perfect and that is the entertaining thing about it, right?
On the whole, I would preserve the soul of the movie but would make it more spicy by making use of some side stories and extra laughs!

You will do well as a movie director but you have left out the instruction that says you should add the title of the movie as part of your title.

Hi @artist1111!
3 idiots is really a wonderful movie which gives us different lessons. I have watched it many times but each time I become attached to it's characters emotionally. It shows us the struggle of different people in their life and sacrifices. On the same time it amuses us.
I enjoy it's funny moments as well like the example of machine as a zip of the pants when he opens and closes it 😂.
