The movie, at large, sheds light on man's insecurities, dressed in pride, out of their inability to understand their partners, the stress that women and housemakers go through and the need for open conversations about it. A social satire struck on a very different kind of note and pace throughout. A non-preachy, direct slow burner, a surprising entertainer!

Pros: Dark comedy, a different swing among narrative styles and speed, family entertainment, quirky music that reminds of you of western dark comedies.

Cons: Predictable storyline, poor screen tones and colours in between, and while music is strong in many areas, it also falls below par in some.

It dropped on OTT with no noise at all, and the same was the case in theaters too. As there were no other good options, I gave it a go with minimal expectations, only to be surprised by how much I liked it.

A new couple relocates to a posh colony where the husband befriends all the women due to his happy-go-lucky nature. This doesn't sit well with the other husbands, and an incident eventually leads to the police station.

Biju Menon as the friendly husband is a treat to watch, performing with the perfect balance of charm, making it neither awkward nor creepy. Suraj Venjaramoodu is in his element as well, shining in his role as the insecure husband. Lijomol Jose is a surprise, delivering an earnest performance that makes her presence felt. Sudhi Koppa has an interesting role, which he justifies to the fullest. Johny Antony, Shruti Ramachandran, and the rest of the cast nail their respective parts.

The thread of the story is simple, yet it engages you right from the word go. Kudos to the captain of the ship, Vishnu Narayan, who delivers a splendid experience for viewers, showcasing his excellent directorial skills. It proves that a simple story can be engaging when executed well.

The screenplay is airtight and leaves no room for distraction. The dialogues are funny and relatable, as are the various couples portrayed, making the whole story feel like it's unfolding right outside your window.

In all its glory, this is a film that should be watched without a second thought. Expect a light-hearted family drama, perfect for a good time.

Excellent pick of apt characters. Deftly directed by Vishnu Narayn & ably penned by Rajesh Gopinadhan. Editing did not expose any missing links. Movie was engaging throughout with suspense elements. Lijomol speaks volumes even in her silence. Biju Menon stole the show. The subtle romantic nuances between Biju & charismatic Shruthi Ramachandran were portrayed without developing into detailed sequences. Suraj excelled in the negative role along with other worth mentioning counterparts like Sudhi Koppa, John Antony & Lalu Alex. The BGM & music by Ankit Menon were a rare mix of situational compositions and was very appealing.

Rating - 3/5

A family drama set on the backdrop of a housing colony.

The story puts light onto relationship and trust issues in a married life within a housing society.

Director has brushed upon some stereotyped subjects and that has great relevance in this status quo and domestic violence in family is portrayed effectively on screen. Audience missing connection in few sequences may be due to flat writing.

All the actors have made a decent performance in the movie. Good performances by Biju Menon, Suraj,Lijomol,Sruthi & Sudhy Kopa.

Director's attempt to convey the idea was fine but it was cringe in few areas. There was no other exciting factor that holds the audience onto the story.

3 Idiots is more than just a film - it's a thought-provoking journey into the rigid Indian education system, wrapped in humor, emotion, and unforgettable performances. At its heart, the story follows three engineering students - Farhan, Raju, and the brilliant and unconventional Rancho - as they navigate pressure, competition, and self-discovery at a prestigious college.

Rajkumar Hirani masterfully blends comedy and drama, delivering powerful social messages without being preachy. Aamir Khan shines as Rancho, bringing charm, intelligence, and compassion to the screen. The chemistry among the three friends feels real and touching, while Boman Irani's portrayal of the strict principal 'Virus' adds a strong counterpoint.

The film's biggest strength lies in its emotional core - from Farhan's struggle to follow his passion to Raju's battle with fear and insecurity. The iconic lines like "All is well" and "Pursue excellence, and success will follow" leave a lasting impression. The music, especially "Give Me Some Sunshine" and "Behti Hawa Sa Tha Woh," enhances the story beautifully.

Verdict: A must-watch for students, parents, and educators alike, 3 Idiots is inspiring, funny, and deeply human. It challenges societal norms while entertaining throughout. ⭐ 4.5/5
