Drama from India directed by Aamir Khan who also plays the role of an arts teacher who discovers that the main actor, a boy with learning difficulties, has dyslexia.
Very emotional movie, very manipulative in that aspect, with long sequences and some unnecessary, but Bollywood films have a tendency to be excessively long (this one lasts 2h45m). Analyzing the story, one realizes that it is unrealistic: only at the age of 9 does a miracle worker saint (not even the parents) discover the kid's error? A good family movie. It is a heartwarming and 'feel-good' movie with a very positive message, showing how things should be in education, unlike the 'robotized' for the masses educational system implemented around the world.
