As expected from a movie featuring Aamir Khan, Dhoom 3 raked in roughly three hundred crores. And as expected from a movie featuring Uday Chopra, it didn't make a shred of sense.
If all the glaring plotholes prevented you from admiring the true essence of Dhoom 3 and the many hidden truths it packed in about life & universe, have a look at these ten lifelessons that will help you see this masterpiece in a whole new light:
That Abhishek Bachchan is the wisest choice for help when there's a nifty thief on the loose.
Regardless of the misgivings you may have on reading that, ACP Jai Dixit lives up to the faith placed in him and umm... Lets two more branches get swept clean and a third one razed to the ground. Daddy Bachchan sure didn't raise no wimp.
That inviting Abhishek's idiotic sidekick Uday Chopra along makes for an even wiser choice when you're trying to prevent the banking system from imminent collapse.
Management quota hai na. Kya mummy?
That Bankwalon tum log ki aisi ki taisi' makes for the best choice of last words.
If only Jackie had put in as much time in figuring out how his two adolescent kids would fend for themselves in a strange city as he did in scripting those last words, they would probably have been able to do more with their lives than pursue a meaningless vendetta.
That it's cool to have your lead actor trained by penguins for the title track.
We don't even know why this comes as a surprise. If the makers really had any budget to spend on hiring actual choreographers for the highly touted title track, they'd probably have been able to afford scriptwriters with IQ greater than Alia Bhatt's.
That big fat national banks don't consider spending a fraction of their stash on obvious things like say, INSURANCE!
They couldn't have been asking for trouble more clearly if they put up a fifteen foot signpost advertising their non-existent security measures.
That tying someone to a roller coaster is the fastest way to get rid of irksome cops
Because he can bomb a huge banking institution without batting an eyelid, but when the time comes for getting rid of the cop - Who, let's see, knows his entire game and is threatening to have landed him behind bars for keeps - That is the moment Sahir decides to grow a conscience and ties him to a rollercoaster. The bottom of the coaster, not even something mildly frightening like say, THE UPPERMOST RUNG. Because he's sweet like that.
That it's okay to have the action sequences scripted by three year olds.
Only the biggest and most awaited action flick of the decade, after all. No biggie.
That the climax of the movie gives you permission to bend the laws of physics, and basic common sense at that, and simply drive right through fire.
Sounds a bit superhuman, although by this point, the movie had reached such torturous levels that we could have been watching a sequel of Drona without being able to tell the difference.
That you can have your leg stuck under a bike and then whizz away on the same bike in the very next scene, fit as a fiddle.
Keeping in mind all that's been said above, sounds legit. *slow clap*
That Katrina can... Wait, was she even there? LOL. Our bad.
