Two
friends
(Madhavan
and
Sharman
Joshi)
embark
on
a
quest
for
a
lost
buddy.
On
this
journey,
they
encounter
a
long
forgotten
bet,
a
wedding
they
must
crash,
and
a
funeral
that
goes
impossibly
out
of
control.
As
they
make
their
way
through
the
perilous
landscape,
another
journey
begins:
their
inner
journey
through
memory
lane
and
the
story
of
their
friend-
the
irrepressible
free-thinker
Rancho
(Aamir
Khan),
who
in
his
unique
way,
touched
and
changed
their
lives.
It's
a
story
of
their
hostel
days
that
swings
between
rancho's
romance
with
the
spirited
Pia
(Kareena
Kapoor),
and
his
clash
with
and
oppressive
mentor,
Viru
Sahastrabudhhe
(Boman
Irani).
And
then
one
day,
suddenly,
Rancho
vanishes...
Who
was
he?
Where
did
he
come
from?
Why
did
he
leave?
The
friend
who
influenced
and
inspired
them
to
think
creatively
and
independently,
even
as
the
conformist
world
called
them
three
idiots.
Where
is
the
original
idiot
now?
Finally,
in
misty
mountains
of
unparalleled
beauty,
the
find
the
key
to
the
secret.
3
Idiots
is
comedy
of
ideas
that
is
a
provocative
as
it
is
funny,
as
wildly
entertaining
as
it
is
insightful.
A
laugh-riot
that
talks
about
the
most
important
of
human
pursuits:
self-actualization.
