Taare Zameen Par - an admirable stuff
I am back to blogs after a long break with a brief review on Taare Zameen Par, an old but my recent movie. This is a story about a dyslectic kid whose life transforms after meeting his dedicated teacher.
The storyline goes like this; Shunned at his school for poor grades, derided by his classmates and rebuked by his father, Ishan Awasthi (a dyslectic kid) becomes an unsolvable problem for his parents who then pack him off to a boarding school. A former dyslectic and a temporary staff of the school, Ram Shankar (Aamir Khan) identifies the kid's problem and ultimately helps the kid to find himself.
Unlike other commercial movies, this one drives home a strong message of empathizing with the kid. It makes one realize that some of the renowned geniuses were once scoffed at, but the world had to bow down to their intellect later. Apart from the sensitive story, this movie is treated with intense sensitivity and maturity that the viewer is dumbstruck.
On face-value, Taare Zameen Par seems to be a kiddie film in the beginning, but as the story unfolds, you realize that the story delves into the mind and heart of a kid, his interests in colours, fishes, dogs, etc. The narrator opens the cards at the very outset, when you realize that the kid is just not interested in books/studies. Amidst all these, the narrator have not failed to emphasize the point that treating a dyslectic kid doesn't call for a special school or an exclusive environment rather a normal environment with a lit bit of extra attention.
Taare Zameen Par belongs to Master Darsheel Safary. A performance that make the best of performances pale in comparison. A performance that deserves brownie points. A performance that'll always come first on your mind the moment someone mentions the movie name. A performance that moves you and makes you reflect on your growing years. A performance that merits a special award.
This movie reminds me of Rain Man, a movie on autistic man, an another masterpiece.
Kudos to Aamir Khan for an extraordinary work of cinema that is a sacrilege to miss.
