THE THREE IDIOTS Reaction: In the movie, there are many things you could learn from it. The importance of Friendship, Education, ion, Excellence. These are the major things you need to learn to be able to past schooling. You need a good friend that you could rely on when problem occurs. A good education that teach you all the things that you needed to know as a student. A ion for the thing that you are doing to be able to achieve what you are striving for without hesitation. You need excellence in everything you do, you need to excel on the task that are given at you and bring best out of you. With all the present of all these things schooling is nothing to be afraid of. As what the movie always tell us. “AAL IZZ WELL (All’s well)”. Do not be afraid on what you do for there is always an answer in every problems. On Friendship. Rancho considers a friend as a man’s greatest treasure. There were a couple of scenes in the movie where he put his friends’ needs before his needs. Like a true friend, he would go out of his way to help his friends and his friends’ families, even if this could endanger his life. Despite his super bubbly nature, he touched his friends in a very deep way, it made Farhan and Raju cry. It made me cry as well. And I bet if you watched the movie, it made you cry too. He taught Farjan to pursue his real ion in Wildlife photography and Raju to face his fear of failure. On Success. “Follow excellence and success will chase you.” “Make your ion your profession.” “Study with all your heart, not just for grades.” “ Study to be accomplished, not affluent.” These were some of Rancho’s favorite lines, which he lived by. Rancho always tops the exams. When asked by his friend Farhan how come he always excels, Rancho’s answer was simple, “I love engineering. It’s my ion.” He further said, “Follow your talent. Quit Engineering. Marry photography.” This was because Farhan was so good at Wildlife Photography, yet, he’s taking up Engineering because it was his parents’ dream for him to become an Engineer. Raju then asked Rancho how come he doesn’t excel even if he studies hard. Rancho said, “Because you’re a coward. Scared of the future. With such fear of tomorrow, how’ll you live today? How’ll you focus in your studies? Go live your life.” Rancho said it very well, his words pierced my heart. So true. And so I decided to adopt his mantra “Follow excellence and success will chase you.” Every day, I am taking baby steps towards making that a reality. On Education. As opposed to Chatur, his competitor, Rancho studied for the love of it. In fact, he didn’t see Chatur as his competitor. He questioned the educational system. On

his start in college he was ask define to define machine and we define it in a simple words the prof was not happy with it. But when Chatur explained it in a more complicated and bookish way of explaining he was glad of it and told Rancho “that is how you define words” and then Rancho confronted his professor but the professor was mad and scolded rancho ask him to leave the room. As Rancho was about to leave he said to the professor that he forgot something. As the professor was curious for what we had left he ask Rancho for it. And Rancho answered in complicated way or bookish way just like how Chatur defined machine. As the professor was confuse on what Rancho is talking he ask what is it and Rancho said Books. As he said this the professor said why didn’t he told it earlier in simpler way he said he tried it when explaining about machine. And the professor was furious that he shouted to Rancho to leave the room and he was not allowed to enter the professor’s discussion again. This just prove how bad the education system is. Rancho once said that the system highlights grades and jobs instead of ideas and inventions. This made Prof. Virus furious. There was a scene when Prof. Virus dragged Rancho to an ongoing class and put him on the spot. Rancho was in front of his classmates and two professors, all anticipating his move. He looked at the big book the class prof was using, and he wrote two words in the blackboard. Then he gave everyone 30 seconds to define the words. No one was able to answer. Then Rancho said, “When you were asked to define the two words, were you excited, curious? Thrilled that you’ll learn something new? No. You all got into frantic race. What’s the use of such methods even if you come first? Will your knowledge increase? No. Just the pressure. This is college, not a pressure cooker.” Again, this made Prof. Virus really mad. He challenged Rancho to define the two words. Rancho was such a clever. He said, “I just invented the words. I was not trying to teach Engineering. I was teaching you how to teach.” Rancho believes that by changing the educational system, we can change the world. He manifested this in his own special way as shown in the latter part of the movie. Rancho also questioned the grading system. He said that grades create a divide — A Graders = Masters and C graders = Slaves. He said this because after the term, their class would have a class picture and those who excel would sit in front and those who have the lowest grades sit at the back. I share Rancho’s view on education. This was one of the many reasons why I was glued to the movie. Indeed, learning should be exciting and inspiring! Though Rancho’s ways and beliefs were unconventional and he was always scolded by Prof. Virus, his ion and his good nature were so vibrant, Prof. Virus gave the “pen” to Rancho towards the end of the term. Even Chatur who competed wildly against Rancho bowed down to him towards the end of the movie. Follow your ion: Very often we deceive ourselves by giving in to the demands of the people around us, rather than following what our minds dictate. We go by the set

standards of the society and ignore our real ion. This results in dual loss. We end up becoming mediocre professionals in the field that we enter and on the other hand the field which happens to be our real ion, loses a potential talent. A person who has a ion for cooking walks into an engineering college and ends up becoming a mediocre engineer, while the hospitality industry loses a good chef. Pursuing one’s ion is not easy. We’ll encounter so many setbacks. Always , when a problem bugs you, put your hand in your heart and say “All is well.” Strive for Excellence: We tend to define certain parameters of success by looking at the people who are deemed to be successful in life. We then channelize all our energies in chasing this perceived notion of success, instead of focussing on excellence in our respective fields of operation. I have seen many good technologists shifting gears to chase the goal of becoming a manager by doing people management. The end result is that we lose a good technologist and get a bad people manager. If the same technologist would have focussed on developing his skills in technology, he would probably have become an indispensable entity in the organization and which in turn would have made him successful. As Rancho says, strive for excellence and success will chase you. Conclusion: The movie teaches as the importance of friendship and education. To be able to succeed in life we need to have a bestfriends or an important people in our life that we could lean on. And most of all education. But not an only a mere education, education that we could be proud of. Because we love what we are doing. If we love technology so we better strive for an education that would teach us more about technology. If we love cooking then we should follow our ion and strive for excellence in doing it. Once we achieve this excellence then we could tell to ourselves that we have live a better life. In our life we always have this end goal that we want to become “SUCCESSFUL” this is what we always wanted. So to be able to reach this end goal we should strive our best follow what we are ionate about. And do not be afraid to commit mistakes for what the movie always tell us “ALL’S WELL”, no matter what the problem would be everything would be all right if we are ionate on what we are doing then we would excel in any problems. Just like how other successful persons are. For they are ionate on what they do they always excel on what they do. No problems can stop them. “ALL’S WELL”
