3 idiots (II)



I cried and at the same time laughed at many scenes and one of it is when Rancho and Pia rushed Rajus’ father on a scooter. Rancho was truly a friend they didn't even study for their final exam because according to Rancho, there are a lot of exams but there is only one father. The three idiots stood by each other. But in their exam day Pia woke them up and told them Raju’s father is in good condition and that they need to take their exam. They were very late and virus didn’t accept their papers So what Rancho did is that he asked the professor if he knew them and the Virus said he did not, so Rancho mixed up the papers he arranged and they run. On the revelation of the results, Farhan and Raju quickly looked on the results they were on the last positions and they thought Rancho didn’t make it but they later found out that Rancho ranked first.
We learnt something about human behavior that day, it feels bad when a friend fails, but it feels even worse when he comes first.
Hahahha this is true. I also felt this some time long ago. I’m not quite sure on why but I guess it maybe because again we all drive for success, we aimed to be the first and even with friends there is a secret competition.

When Raju was in coma because he jumped off the building after virus let him choose between himself and Rancho to get expelled. Rancho was truly a dear friend; he did everything he can do for the recovery of Raju. He did everything to make him life and to motivate him. He never quit with Raju .
When Pia knew that his father virus is going to make the final exam to assure that Raju will fail, she immediately gave the office keys to rancho to steal the questionnaire. Virus found out that they sneaked in to his office and copied the questionnaire and so he expelled the boys. At the same night, Pia blamed his father for the suicide of his brother. She said it was not suicide but murder and ran away from home. It was a stormy night and Pia’s sister is going to give labor but there were heavy floods and they can’t go near to a hospital. Rancho, Farhan, Raju together deliver the baby with the help of a cobbled-together Vacuum extractor.
This was also a hilarious and a very touching scene. The three idiots were delivering the baby of Virus’ daughter.  The baby didn’t cried and no response was manifested but after saying all is well the baby cried. All is well -These three words always came out form Rancho. He said that his hears easily got scared and so he taught it to be strong by saying all is well. Yes it is in the state of mind, believe that everything is fine and definitely everything is at ease. Just let it flow and don’t stress yourself because if you take too much control you easily got frustrated. And this is one thing I would carry on, just let it flow, All is well.

Virus was their main villain and that day they were all prepared to abandon the school but Virus gave rancho the pen, the pen which symbolizes excellence.
In the end Raju.Fahran,pia and Chatur found where rancho is and he had his own school. Well Chatur was boasting all his success and mocked at Rancho and suddenly beg when he found out that rancho was the scientist named Phunsukh Wangdu .
Farhan Qureshi: 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, and 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.
So Rancho was not the real Rancho, he was actually the son of the gardener of Real Rancho. He ranked no.1 and got the degree for the sake of the real rancho. He didn’t mind this at all because he was fond of learning.
Rancho was truly an exception. He got a degree for the sake of another person. Amongst all he was the one brave enough….Oh how I wish I could just be like him go to college just for the joy of learning and not thinking of the future. It’s hard no to think of it, maybe because of competition. In the film Virus also said that it is either you compete or die, yes it is true in this world it is a matter of survival and to be able to survive you need to compete. Everyday is a competition, it may not be tangible but in every sense there is a competition. A simple argument with your parents, siblings, friend or teacher is a competition of ideas and statements. Here in the Philippines, there is a massive competition in riding the jeep. Some passengers would run just to get on the backseat. Internally all of us wanted to be the best, we may say we don’t care about winning but at the end of the day we are always thinking and hoping of our own success. Life is a maze, there are other ways, there are different patterns, one may get lost, one may gracefully step the right track and one may meet a dead end. Life is full of options and we always have the chance to choose which button to press.
 He was an idiot because not everyone agreed to his ideas and convictions. Truly rancho was a genius no because he knows every word in a book, not because he had studied the different theories, not because he solves any mathematical problems but because he was able to move people. He was able to change the paradigm of the people living in conventions. He was able to motivate and inspire his friends and that marks a true genius.
Rancho: Pursue excellence, and success will follow pants down.
