3 Idiots is generally considered his best film, but for me it's Lage Raho Munnabhai. There's something so sweet and endearing about that movie. It was the best movie of 2006 according to me, although I also liked Dor, Omkara, and Rang De Basanti.


I love how Hirani blends entertainment with social messaging in this particular movie, and how he incorporate the love story so beautifully in the narrative.


I can watch this movie again and again.


Thoughts??

No, MBBS was, though it was inspired from Patch Adams, it was one of the funniest Hindi films of all time. Lage Raho was preachy and boring.

Sanju was an exercise in whitewashing...though the film did have glimpses of Hirani's cinematic talents

For me RKH movies are wonderful because they have repeat value...Sanju lacks that..its one movie where there is no scene which I want to go back and rewatch..


even PK had repeat value..but not Sanju
