Taare Zameen Par Review

Bullying, kids love stories, child slavery, imaginary friends, magic and ghosts. This movie is not based on any of these topics and yet has kid-protagonist.

Autism was not a condition widely known or talkd about in India before this movie came out. THankfully, people started thinking about children with these conditions more seriously after this movie. A child not wanting to confrom to hollow rules of mind-curbing systems that govern us, is a child who is a future philosopher. such a child in truest to nature, to art and has a good hold of aesthetics and does not even know the meaning of this word. They are born with this gift that makes them ever-so sensitive, compassionate, loving, and deeply creative. People who are open-minded, sublime in thought and pure at heart are the ones that truly recognize such children. This is what the movie tries to convey.

We get a sense of new discovery and acceptance for all kinds of children and their wishes and needs. The plot moves fast and delicately, exposing every important detail for us to make us relate with this issue even if we have not experienced it.

To love this movie is to change your life.
