"Taare Zameen Par" - a beautiful movie on dyslexia


Taare Zameen Par

What a beautifully-crafted Hindi movie on the trials and tribulations of an 8-year old boy struggling to live his life with dyslexia. Shown last Saturday on the Vasantham channel, I had learnt more about children with dyslexia in 3 hours than all the 33 hours I spent in class on "Introduction to Special Needs".

Here's the hauntingly, but deeply meaningful song in the movie:

Catch it again if you can.

(Thanks to Geeta, DPT class of 2008/09 for bringing this movie to our attention)
