His world was full of dreams, portrayed through his paintings.*
- A child who is been ignored by the society and living in a world he set himself with lots of colors and shades to cover his sorrow. Life for him is a fantasy and the movie certainly touched many who have gone through a dark shade of past which even wet our cheek with a drop of tear roll down... And there are many scenes you feel simple however ’sensitive’. A movie of a life time, with a beautiful theme captures many and many more... Darsheel takes the movie from the first scene to the last... Aamir Khan with his screen presence made it larger than ever... And the movie is Taare Zameen Par...
Cast:
Darsheel Safary [ (Ishan)Surprisingly his name appears first in the Title, Generous Aamir ]
Aamir Khan [ Art Teacher, Ram Shankar Nikumbh ]
Vipin Sharma[ Ishan’s Father ]
Tisca Chopra [ Ishan’s Mother ]
Tanay Chheda [ Ishan’s Brother ]
This is the first time I’m writing a review under the category Movies, and I feel immense pleasure in recollecting each scene which made me think and analyse. Movie starts with a slow and steady pace with our hero Ishan focused, his interests and his fondness towards fish, quite eccentric. He play with his Pets draw paintings but there is nobody to encourage his talents but his teachers, parents behind for those figures which makes them think thats the so called ’best’ in life. WRONG !! I bet, not even a single parent would dare to look each other during the film since the SCRIPT of the movie is well balanced and scene by scene its floating in more depth. Ishan, Ishan, Ishan morning alarms, home work, class test and poor kid is tired and not even a single soul on the world is ready to examine why is he back in his studies and unfortunately this kid is a Dyslexic chap who finds difficulty in putting those thoughts into action. Due to the pressure from his teachers, his Dad [ Vipin Sharma ] will admit him in another school & board him there. The movie reaches a emotional note when it meets up with INTERMISSION and the people who walk out from the theatre got little carried away with the song "MAA". A helpless kid’s true life in a strange way... Movie takes a calm note with the arrival of Mr. Perfectionist Aamir Khan but there are few scenes which made us think for eg: the scene where he meets up with Ishan and finds out the talent when he visits his house...
Some things are meant to be felt. Taare Zameen Par is surely a treat for those audience who see their life different...
Main kabhi batlata nahin
Par andhere se darta hoon main maa
Yun to main, dikhlata nahin
Teri parwaah karta hoon main maa
Tujhe hai sab hai pata, meri maa...
Certainly not a 9 year old kid’s emotional feelings and even a suicidal thought comes up in his mind... Who is rather helpless in his life, worried and yet tortured. Buried his talents and living for the sake of ’just living’. Of course nobody is there to understand but there are some ’angels in disguise’ sent by God ! Aamir takes up full control over the movie in the second half and his appearance when it was indeed necessary gave us relief. Oh little sweet, Oh little sour, Oh little... not too far... all I need, all... is to be f r e e...
Confessions of a living mortal. Yet pathetic... His emotions, the way he think, the way he brought back to his world is something different from the un usual ’masala flicks’ which ruined the Indian cinema...
Let me end without a shout, let me end I have a doubt, there are more many more, many many more like me... This is our story... We all have an ’Ishan’ hid in us... Maybe at times we tend to raise our voice and de motivated in a way that it never comes out... Open Up, how I run, how I run to the other side? All I need is just to be f r e e... When the movie gets over, these lines pricks our conscience and we feel sense of love towards all human beings... Not because we are one among them but for the fact is that, EVERY SOUL ON EARTH ARE SPECIAL...
Question Hour :
The movie deals with Humanity ! And with the box office results, is it a threat for our society how people not look up to a social message rather than munching pop korns in a ’s e n s l e s s’ film ?
Movie takes us to an emotional note which makes us see the people around us with lots of talents and potential treated badly. Will it make an attempt to even appreciate their talents when a Mass popular star is been focussed with ’six packs’, just for ’Business sake’ ?*
I have a special friend in my life who was, de motivated from whatever she felt. Who had lots of family problems and she drew pictures like nobody around her finished them like the way she have done. But her family, her circumstances made her bury all the talents in her... She was confused in almost all the deeds she was into... Maybe because there was nobody to guide her... Life is short, and how we handle it would mould us for our future... Oh yes, this is not Nikumb’s Words, but I always used to advice her this way... Surprisingly she came back to her life... With a sense of urge, infact a urge to fly... She realized the importance of Life, Love and mostly the importance of making use of her talent. Now you will be thinking why did I take my personal experience here... I would like to relate this personal part of mine with Taare Zameen Par... Because, with love & care we can change anybody... All you need, is to set them free...
I have watched Taare Zameen Par on the first premiere and its quite late for me to write on this Masterpiece but I would recommend all Movie lovers to go and watch it once since ’sensible’ Films comes once in a while...
To end with my review I would like to dedicate this song for all my readers... Because we all have gone through this atleast once in our life time... And that says it all...
*Bheed mein yun na chodo mujhe
Ghar laute ke bhi aa na paoon maa
Bhej na itna door mujhko tu
Yaad bhi tujhko aa naa paaon maa
Kya itna bura hoon main maa
Kya itna bura meri maa
Jab bhi kabhi papa mujhe
Jo zor se jhoola jhulate hai maa
Meri nazar dhoondhe tujhe
Sochu yahi tu aa ke thaamegi maa
And for all those Ishan’s out there,
Bachpan ke din chaar
Naa ayenge baar baar
Jee le jee le mere yaar
Jeib Khaali to udhaar
Jee Zindagi*
Love,
