Three Idiots

I watched this lovely film today with my family. Enjoyed it immensely. The message do what you are passionate about and follow your heart resonated with me. Become an engineer if you desire so, become a photographer if you desire so not because of parental or peer pressure. All is Well were three most powerful words I took away from the film.

My name is Khan

If you want to unlearn, relearn and change for the better, here is a movie you must watch. I watched Sharukh Khan's movie, I was so touched by the story line. My family enjoyed it too. The film is about an autistic person who shows leadership in adversity. He shows you to be yourself, taught me so much about what prejudices mean. I only wish every American Caucasian gets to see this film. The country that elected a non Caucasian to the country's highest office must be proud of this movie. It helps erase so much of the prejudices prevailing about Muslims and clearly communicates you cannot stop someone from showering their love and goodwill for you. A wonderful movie. Just made me sit up and recognise what I should be doing for the needy every day of my life.
