Watched Taare Zameen Par yesterday. I could not stop myself writing a review for the film after watching it. Simply fabulous work by Aamir. He again proved that he is an actor, director and more importantly a human being destined to make a difference.

I almost like everything in the movie. The concept to begin with was awesome. The acting, direction, photography, music everything was truly phenomenal.

It also made me happy to think that India is changing and changing for good. More and more people are not heading out for all the good causes. India needs a lot more of this and as fast as possible.

The scene in the movie where aamir asks Ishaan’s dad to read in chinese and again the scene where his dad comes to him to tell him that Ishaan’s mom read everything about the disease on the internet were really touching.

With increasingly competitive world that we live in today, the need of an hour is to realize the importance of creativity and make all attempts to nurture it. It is just creativity and innovation which will help any developing nation like India to make a mark in the world and not the flowing dollars. Of course flowing dollars will help, however we should not forget that in doing so if we just forget the basics, we will soon face talent shortage like many other nations today.

For e.g. look at the science and commerce graduates today. The number of such graduates is decreasing significantly. Also the number of graduates doing work which suites their profile lacks more significantly.

Look at the quality of overall education. It is degrading day by day in lack of good teachers. Schools have started becoming an institution of making money leading to students not getting base knowledge and moral values which are much more important than making money.

We are now in a race of making money and losing moral. Let us all think, act and do something to change this so that the rich India and Indian culture remains intact.
