3 Idiots


2009 Indian comedy-drama film directed by Rajkumar Hirani. Two friends embark on a quest for a lost buddy. On this journey, they encounter a long forgotten bet, a wedding they must crash, and a funeral that goes impossibly out of control.






If Michael Jackson's dad forced him to be a boxer... and Mohammad Ali's dad pushed him to be a singer... imagine the disaster.

Today my respect for that idiot shot up. Most of us went to college just for a degree. No degree meant no plum job, no pretty wife, no credit card, no social status. But none of this mattered to him, he was in college for the joy of learning, he never cared if he was first or last.

I was a good student since childhood. Parents hoped I'd end their poverty. That scared me... My fear grew. Fear is not good for grades, sir.

You're right, Dad. It wasn't suicide... It was murder.

Favorite Lines:

You know, sometimes all you need is twenty seconds of insane courage. Just literally twenty seconds of just embarrassing bravery. And I promise you, something great will come of it.

It is what it is. Sometimes you don't know what it is until you see what it is. You know? Once you see what it is, then you can figure out.
--Mr. Stevens

I have a question for you. You're some random guy from the city, no one in the zoo community has ever heard of you. You know nothing about animals and you moved into a dump. I mean, what kind of regular person just up and buys a place like this? Especially somebody with kids. Why?

Oh, this next part's kind of hurtful. It says, listen to your heart not your brother. She used three exclamation marks.
