Taare Zameen Par.... in one word... "Touching"
Well, what one could say about this wonderfully executed work of Realty on Celluloid? Yet, if i had to give a brief review of the movie as a critic, i would attemt it as follows:
Story : The subject of the movie,Child Exlpoitation by the Society in several ways,was ,although universally acclaimed, was quite touching in every respect.
Screenplay : After story the beatifully played Screenplay was the USP of the movie, I thought. First you see the dark side of the Hero Darsheel makes you hate him as he's shown as the most mischevious boy you would ever come across.... then the story takes a turning point as he's left alone at the boarding school... then the entry of Aamir is history...
Cast : At the cost of being quite boringly Obvious, i would say that the hero of the movie was Darsheel Safary. How he emoted every Expressions with his not so cute looks. As always Aamir with his mind blowing performence as the supportnig actor made this movie complete. Not to forget the performence of Tisca Chopra, as she also played her part quite outstanding.
Direction: Well Aamir wouldn't have directed such a beatiful creation had Amole not written the touching script of the year.. nevertheless it was an applauding debut from our master actor Mr. Aamir Khan. He did a marvellous job in handling kid especially Darsheel. I've seen such beatiful direction with kid in recent times in Black only.
Music & Lyrics : Well, another great thing aboput the movie was theme oriented and situation based excellent music by Shankar Ehsaan And lloy(S.E.L.). S.E.L., wuold't have produced the magical tunes witout the amzingly approorate and beatifully crafted poetry of Prasoon Joshi. Remeber "tujhe sab hai pata hai na maa" or " tu dhup hai, jam ke bikhar" Just excellent...
Over All: I would repeat my word earler, just "Touching"...
