SPOILER ALERT....IF YOU HAVEN'T WATCHED THE MOVIE, DON'T READ THE FOLLOWING:

What I didn't like about 3 idiots: There are various inconsistencies I wanted to point out:

1. They should have hired young actors. Everyone know Aamir khan is at least 40 and he's playing as a college kid in late teens. I couldn't buy it.

2. Aamir khan's character rancho fights against existing learning methods throughout the movie and yet he aces all the exams? If rancho hated book learning so much, how could he have aced the exams, which are usually based on books? Something doesn't jibe there.

3. Rancho turns about to be a great innovator but he's lost his morality. He tries to help his friend cheat. Later we find out that he was enrolled in the college as someone else. By selling his certificate, he's literally committed a crime. What would have happened if rancho had gone to medical school and given his license to someone who didn't even graduate from high school?

4. Like we all predicted, rancho has 500 patents, gets the girl, and thus is the most successful person. This is nothing sort of a masala movie that Bollywood is infamous for making.

The destination of this movie is nothing different from loads of Bollywood flicks. Here's why it has been a hit:

A famous actor (one of the Khans) +  some romance + a couple of songs + comedy here and there + a few out of the world melodramatic scenes ('All's good' wakes up a dead baby) + everyone's happy in the end = Formula for a Bollywood Hit
