NAVAL DESPATCH FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF Cdr Kanchan Mukherjee FFFFFFFFF SEPTEMBER 2010 “Aal izz well” will soon make it’s entry in management lessons. Bollywood is not about just masala entertaining flicks but a few films also depict lessons for life. Some of them are great inspiration for us and also act as an unflattering mirror to our everchanging society. Often, we miss learning because we have not recognized the teacher in the other person. The story of hindi movie “IQBAL” in which the character Iqbal, a young deaf-mute with a skill for fast cricket bowling, is a classic lesson of teacher-student relationship. In Iqbal’s life enter two teachers – one is the district club cricket coach and the other is a self-proclaimed loser. While the cricket coach recognizes Iqbal’s talent, he sees the game as a means of furthering his own selfinterest rather than skill wherein the teacher-student relationship slowly weans away from the ideal.

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF Iqbal though crestfallen, cajoled the other teacher who was a self-proclaimed loser. Here, tables are turned! A young man’s zeal and dream results in the re-integration of a sportsman who had turned his back to the world. Truly, every school teacher, irrespective of his/her age, experience or background, has the capacity to change. A student needs to recognize his teacher. The simple faith between a teacher and his student needs to be inculcated in all students today. Movies make a huge impact on teaching as the acceptance of concept is easy and comprehending the management fundamentals is simpler. As it is rightly said, "one picture is equal to a thousand words". The film “3 Idiots” reveals “Learning the idiotic way” as follows:- • Never try to be successful, excellence always creates success. • Live every moment to the fullest. • Passion leads to excellence. • Learning is very simple, teachers do fail. • Current education system causes pressures among students. • Life is emotion management, not intelligence optimisation. • Necessity is the mother of invention. • Simplicity is life. • Industrial leadership. • Love is time and space free. • Importance of a word in communication. At the end of the film, one is left feeling a sense of triumph, and a question for oneself – “What is it that I believed in and why did I give it up?” Real life does not have larger-than-life heroes and villains; it does not have dramatic emotions or black-and-white characters. Real life is about simple acts of caring, touching glimpses of unconditional support, simple occasions of affectionate humour and of unpretentious moments of faith and courage. If each student is able to find the freedom to discover his own potential and then within him the courage to pursue it and then finds a teacher who will suffer the agonies of failure with him – well, then each student could be Iqbal, and every teacher, Mohit. The power of Bollywood lies not in refitting stereotypes but in playing with them to suggest new possibilities. This, "3 Idiots" does with laughter and intelligence, by treating lightly what we usually pontificate about, turning education into a world of nostalgia and anticipation that we deeply treasure. The last word is – “Education is not embedded in the chalkboard, textbook and in the exam but in the friendships, values and ideas seeded in `centres of learning’ that might germinate later.” ************ ABOUT THE AUTHOR Commander Kanchan Mukherjee (70325-B) was commissioned on 13 Feb 89.
