Taare Zameen Par belongs to Master Darsheel Safary. The Eight year kid is amazing with his acting capabilities.
He played the role of Ishaan Awasthi for whom it is difficult to make a high impact in studies, tests and the home work when compared to the kids in his age group. He is more into his world of paintings, animals etc.  He already failed in the third standard once. The very next year also, he is under performing in all the tests in the class. His alphabets are not yet clear in his mind, so he is not able to differentiate between some of the alphabets which look similar, as a result he is not able to read even. When ever he started reading, he is getting a feel that the letters are dancing..In the maths test paper, he got one question, 3 * 9 = _. He goes into his imaginative world and seems like the there is a fight between the 3rd planet of lunar system and the 9th planet. After that fight, 9th planet got destroyed and 3rd planet still there, so he wrote the answer as 3 * 9 = 3. When complaints started to pour in, Ishaan's parents decided to send him off to a boarding school. There is not much change in the boarding school also as the teachers are continuing in the same kind of state. He remains the laugh stock of the class. Being away from home, he feels even dejected, inferior and finds it difficult to cope with his inabilities. Later Ram Shankar Nikumbh(Aamir Khan) gets appointed as a temporary drawing teacher of the School. He is different when compared to the other teachers, make the students to think out of the books, allowing to paint what ever is coming to their minds. Every child except Ishaan is responding with great enthusiasm.

He takes great effort in understanding Ishaan and his inabilities. He makes his parents and teachers realize that Ishaan is not abnormal but a very special child with his own talents. With patience, care Ram succeeds in boosting the confidence level of Ishaan. Aamir Khan is coming only at the very end of first half. But its not an Aamir Khan movie, its the film of the stunning Darsheel Safary. A number of scenes of the kid makes you moist eyed. I am sure if you are watching it alone, you may have a tendancy to cry. The kids ex-pressions, body language, eyes, dialogue delivery.. almost everything absolutely perfect. The best lead performance of the year, deserves the best actor award.


The film is Aamir Khan's directorial debut. The film was supposed to be directed by some other director, later Aamir Khan took up the job from him and did a great job. It came out to be major commercial success. It is competing with other commercial projects such as Welcome.  The mouth publicity and the Aamir Khan's presence is making the movie ahead of other movies. The music of the movie done by the great trio Shanker – Ehsaan - Loy is great. One song which contain the lyrics Taare Zameen Par is really lovely.  The kid has won several awards for his performance, and was the first recipient of the Star Screen Award Best Child.


A movie that moves you and makes you reflect  on your growing years. The kid has stolen everyone's heart with his heartwarming performance. I personally prefer all the parents should watch this movie. The message that the movie is giving to the public:- "Every Child is special".
But  the movie can have one more caption:- With Tickets, Tissue papers should be free, The 8 year kid stole the heart of entire audience with his stunning performance. Hats off!!!
