Aamir Khan – The Adroit Ace of Dangal !!
“Bande
ki mehnat ko kismet ka sadar pranaam hai pyaare – Dangal – Dangal”. This
mystical lyrics define the sky-high success secret of the living legend – Aamir
Khan. There is a huge labyrinthine debate in the cinematic experts over the
topic that is our beloved Aamir, the greatest artist Bollywood has ever
produced. In the past few years, myriad movies have arrived on the silver
screen which have depicted the struggle voyage of eminent sport personalities
like Milkha Singh, Mary Kom, MS Dhoni, etc., but apparently no film has
produced the magic “Dangal” did.
I
wonder what could be the possible reasons for such glory – whether it is the
star cast or the mesmerizing storyline or incredible acting? The answer is simple
– everything; yes everything about Dangal is amazing. Each member related to
its production has done its part in a perfect way. Each actor in the movie
whether for a teeny-weeny 5 minute role or the bad-ass villainous coach has
performed mind-bogglingly, which lacks in the movie of his frenemies (other 2
Khans of Bollywood). These frenemies have also earned lime-light and monumental
triumphs in different quantum of time. These rivals are so colossal that weak
storylines, poor acting or even overacting are miniscule factors and only their
name (a brand itself) are a mantra for guaranteed success.
However,
its not the case with Mr. Perfectionist as he is far superior in acting
(undoubtedly true) due to his hard, dedication and passion. He gives an immense
weight to storyline and make sure the movie remains catchy to bind audience to
their seats. Delivering a social message through film is his specialty and it
is clearly evident from Taare Zameen Par, 3 Idiots, PK, Dangal, etc.( take your
pick). This kind of social work with mammoth commercial success is unparalleled
in history of Film Industry. A movie is maybe commercially hit but not a “classic” until audience are
spell-bounded by the majestic screenplay and they feel they are an integral
part of it. Its “classic” when a 60
year old retired man punches the air with his fists to celebrate the win of
Geeta Phogat with a jaw-dropping 5-pointer in the commonwealth final to win 1st
ever Gold medal for India(as shown in Dangal).
Although
some scenes of Dangal are modified for cinematic purposes but still, it remains
indisputably best movie ever on the silver screen. The movie teaches us to
resolutely stand for our dream and keep fighting until it is achieved. It not
only instils the feminine spirit but also shows how a father stood up for his
daughters and also how to keep kicking when all odds are against them. A
beautiful message in the movie is making his daughters so
competent and able that they can defend themselves from all adversaries as the
father will not always be present everywhere. This is a touchy note that all
fathers must learn for their daughters. The audacious effort of Shri Mahavir
Singh Phogat has been brilliantly staged and got great laud after the movie.
Who can sacrifice his job nowadays to give time to his daughters’ career or who
can imagine someone living and training his daughters for 6 months by living in
a remote city. The exceptional exertion by the legendary wrestler cum trainer
of Haryana would have gone unnoticed by mundane folks without Dangal movie. A
homage must be paid to such a phenomenal man and Aamir has done his part
awe-inspiringly. Hats off to the soil of Haryana for producing exceptional
sportspersons in myriad games like Wrestling, Kabaddi, etc and big applaud to
Aamir Khan for giving them the much needed admiration they need for their sweat
and hard work.
