Hi guys it's Debbie and they would like to speak about "Taare Zameen Par", directed
by Aamir Khan. The title of this film has been translated to "Like stars on earth"
and it follows the life Ishaan, an eight-year-old child which suffers from
dyslexia and other non specified conditions, which prevent him from
carrying out simple tasks such as tying shoelaces, buttoning his clothes,
catching a ball and he struggles to keep up with his classmates' school work. Along
directing the film, Aamir Khan also portrays one of Ishaan's teachers and
the first person to recognise his symptoms, as the parents would not
accept their child's behaviour, which they just put down to "being naughty". So the
plot covers the story of Ishaan from different points of view, it shows all
the different situations connected to his disability. Because not only we see
how Ishaan's mind envisions the worlds that surrounds him, how he overcomes the
struggles on a daily basis, but it also shows the point of view of all of those
close to him. And each character is a symbol, it represents the struggles that
a child with disability will encounter. We meet Ishaan's father which is the
stereotype of the pressure of society, the pressure to excel, the need to
complete all the necessary steps in life: get a degree, get a respectable job, earn
good money, settle down. You can't do it? You're making up excuses. His mother
instead represents the guilt of those that could have been more
understanding. All her life she had worried about being the best mother with
the best child. To the point of actually forgetting to stop and care for the boy.
At one point she actually asked herself where did she go wrong with "everything"
that she had tried to do. Ishaan's schoolmates which laugh at him for not
being able to read or complete simple tasks represent society which will
always judge or scorn, without even knowing the truth. Ishaan's teachers
represent the structured and non flexible aspects of our society: they
criticise different ways of teaching, alternative methods to keep Ishaan more
involved, as if we all had to follow a fixed set of rules. And Nikumbh
instead represents those that see beyond the stigma and recognise the true needs
of people like Ishaan. Aamir Khan represents a person that goes beyond
society's standard fixed rules and tries to teach his students more about being
kind, nice, caring rather than focusing on the educational system's stiff
requirements. And this is a recurrent theme in Aamir Khan's work:
in "3 Idiots" he represented a university student which would excel in
all of his work, but which absolutely despised the rigid structured
educational system which aimed just at giving a degree to hang on the wall,
obtaining a well-paid job, rather than the actual educational component. I
personally really enjoyed "Taare Zameen Par",
it had a premise which could have been carried out in a very cliche filled
manner, but instead I found it had a very different and interesting perspective on
the whole concept. For example most of the characters in the film
don't immediately change their mindset and attitude towards him, that's
how society works, that's how messed up it is, that is how mean people can be. It
will take a long time before the stigma will be completely overcome, it will need
much more than words of just one teacher. And another example is when Nikumbh
proves Ishaan's father how degrading his attitude towards his son can be, by
forcing him to read the instructions to a game in Chinese and then scolding him
for not managing or not even trying. I loved Darsheel Safary's portrait of
Ishaan, which again avoided being characterised through many cliches and
which in the end did the correct thing: portraying the boy's childhood
innocence. And I also really really liked the animation of the dancing letters. I
also liked Vipin Sharma, which although portrayed a controversial and
in some points detestable character, really did a great acting performance.
And although the songs that were included in the film didn't stay with me
as much as they did with "3 Idiots", I really liked the one that introduced
Ishaan's father, with all the robotic daily routine which must be absolutely followed.
So in general I enjoyed watching "Taare Zameen Par", I don't think I
would watch it again but just because it's not the kind of film I usually
watch, but I would recommend it as a touching, thought-provoking and
refreshing point of view on the topic. Let me know what you thought about "Taare
