The “3 Idiots” debate is raging in many corners, some crucial, and some, well, idiotic. The one that’s generating the most brouhaha right now is, of course, the ‘credit crisis’. “In all honesty, the film is vastly different from Five Point Someone" says Madhavan, who plays Farhan Qureshi in the film. (read his interview on page 52) And lately, there have been dissenting voices raising concern over the portrayal of ragging in the film. These arguments, though, are fairly juvenile.
The real focus, of course, is on the education system, and whether educators, parents and students alike need a fundamental rethink of their perspective on what education and learning are about. Says actor Kunal Kapoor, “The film raises a lot of important questions and is one of those rare movies that also provide answers. I’m sure it will force us to re-look at a lot of things and make an impact at an individual level.”
Akhilesh Agarwal who is from the 1975 batch at IIT Kanpur and currently heads a manufacturing company could easily be the man Aamir's character of Rancho was modelled on. In the words of his batchmate Arvind Gupta, an internationally aclaimed educationist, Akhilesh is "perhaps the greatest mechanical tinkerer I've met. He bunked classes all the time and pursued his passions – gliding, power flying, aeromodelling, engines etc."
