Greetings to everyone! I liked the line in the movie 3 idiots: "The lion in the circus also does everything that the ringmaster tells him to do; this is called well-trained and not well-educated."
Comment 1: We too should acquire skills and deliver skills to create leaders and not mere disciples. Let's share our learning from this movie, just a thought-provoking exercise for a change! This was the reason I started this thread! Looking forward to an abundance of comments!

Yes, Avin. It's true.
I hope this movie is made compulsory viewing for anyone under 30 with a dream (that's about 70 percent of a billion) because when our Prime Minister referred to the potential of our young population, he said (quoting Victor Hugo), "You cannot stop an idea whose time has come." The time for young India to think for themselves has come. And this movie is not challenging the system of education; it is saying if you've ever had a dream and a passion, follow it because your instincts teach you more than any textbook can - don't be a machine, be an idiot.
Being an idiot, I think this is much bigger than just a film; it's a cultural phenomenon. Just like the Velvet Revolution affected change in the Czech Republic with rock music, maybe this movie will affect societal change about how we learn. Yet one of the film's arguments is that rankings don't matter; only what you think does. So you must go see it. Whether you like or dislike it, whether it bores you or elates you, as long as you've thought for yourselves, and allowed the idiot in you to awaken for a bit, I think the creators are happy.
All is well.

Again, a supply of good thoughts, innovative thinking, etc., all to cherish. But how do we see that some lessons are adopted for ourselves?
Of course, there are good aspects throughout the movie (ignore the unwanted "compulsorily made to be funny numbers").
Not very clear about Chetan Bhagat's message in his book (as I hadn't read).
