Actor gets nostalgic as ‘3 Idiots’ clocks 11 years

s his superhit flick ‘3 Idiots’ clocked 11 years on Friday, actor R Mad-
havan reflected on the experience of shooting for the film and said
Athat he knew it was going to be iconic, even before it had hit the silver
screen. “I knew it even before we released it, I knew it when I read the script
and told Raju (Rajkumar Hirani, director) it is going to be difficult for him to
beat this film later on, “ he said. “I always knew it is going to be iconic, related
to every aspect of that story. Yes, it does seem like 11 years have flown by, and yet it’s still fresh
in our minds,” the 50-year-old actor added. Madhavan had played the role of Farhan Qureshi, an aspiring photographer who
ends up pursuing engineering for the sake of his parents. What he feels connected most with the people about his character
was his heartfelt conversation with his dad, played by Parikshit Sahni.
“Every youngster has had a conversation like that with their parent. It has become synonymous with the struggle of the
younger generation, to prove their individuality,” the ‘Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein’ actor said.
