Taare Zameen Par

Taare Zameen Par is a 2007 Indian Hindi - language film directed and produced by Aamir Khan. It is a drama film starring Aamir Khan and Darsheel Safari. Ishaan Awasthi is an eight-year-old child whose world is filled with wonders that no one else seems to appreciate his gifted personality. His life filled with colours, fish, dogs and kites are just not important in the world of adults, who are just interested in things like homework, marks and neatness. And Ishaan just cannot seem to understand anything in class. When he causes far more trouble than his parents can handle, he is sent to a boarding school to 'be disciplined'. Things are the same at his new school, and along with other pressures, now, Ishaan also has to handle the added trauma caused by separation from his family. One day a new art teacher bursts onto the scene, Ram Shankar Nikumbh, who spreads joy and optimism. He breaks all the rules of 'how things are done' by asking them to think, dream and imagine, and all the children respond with enthusiasm and get their imagination to work, except Ishaan. Nikumbh soon realizes that Ishaan is unhappy and is facing problems. He soon discovers the reason, that is dyslexia. With time, patience and care, he ultimately helps Ishaan find himself.
