TAARE ZAMEEN PE

After a flawed film by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, and a mad cap no brainer masala entertainer comes a film by Aamir Khan "Taare Zameen Pe" It a film that makes you laugh, it makes you cry, it makes you think.

When Aamir in his brilliant portrayal of Nikumbh convenes an art Mela the whole audience knows who is going to win, but when Ishant wins everyone cries, for a change i saw people overlooking a predictable end, but connecting with the characters, all of us in the audience were one with Nikumb and Ishant. This was the brilliant stroke of genius of Aamir as a director.

Never before anyone has made a greater film in India and it will take a long time for someone to better this film unless it's Aamir Khan himself. After the release many film industry people came out and said, it's a long film, boring, dragging and with lot of sermons. I think they were just humbled with the greatness of this film.

I am not sure if TZP will be a blockbuster, but if it isn't I will be disappointed. In these blogs I have praised many other movies that are taking Indian cinema forward in their own way, some efforts have been a giant leap. However Taare Zameen Pe surpasses them all. This is what movies should be like, this is how movies should be made, it's not Shahrukh starrers which make a mockery of logic in order to entertain or a Krishh which despite all the technological revolution is chained in a sixtiesh screenplay.

Taare Zameen Pe is like a breath of fresh air, its just takes forward movie making to a level where maybe only Raj Kumar Hirani has made it to apart from Aamir Khan.

Kudos...

P.S. Maybe one day I will become a filmmaker, maybe a great filmmaker, but sadly I will never be able to make a great film Like Taare Zameen Pe.
