Rancho, played by Aamir Khan, is an open-minded and unique person who has touched the lives of many. In fact his two friends, portrayed by Madhavan and Sharman Joshi, miss Rancho and decide to go on an adventure to find him. “3 Idiots” quickly becomes a collection of flashbacks and lost promises and bets.
As the two friends begin their journey they quickly get caught up in a bet they had once made to crash a wedding. But instead they crash a funeral and the whole thing goes haywire. Amongst all the crazy happenings, our characters have more personal and deep journeys along with the physical one. As the scenery becomes vast landscapes, we reminisce with our newly made friends as they remember all they have been through with Rancho and how much he has affected their lives. Along this trip down memory lane we meet Pia, played by Kareena Kapoor, who was romantically involved with Rancho during their college days. The boys also remember their mentor Viru Sahastrabuddhe, played by Boman Irani.
We soon learn that Rancho had disappeared quite suddenly after college, which is why his friends had decided to go find him. They are left with so many unanswered questions such as: who is Rancho? Where did he go? Better yet, where did he come from? In school these friends were named the three idiots and now a mystery surrounds the original idiot.
Aamir Khan has recently become quite selective in the films he does. Each of his starrers has been a movie with a message. For all these reasons, “3 Idiots” has been a highly anticipated film from the time its production started. The world awaits the Christmas weekend release to see if “3 Idiots” will live up to all the expectations!
