Happy Birthday Rajkumar Hirani; From 3 Idiots To Sanju; Transcending Through His Masterpieces That Caused A Stir In The Society

Rajkumar Hirani, a filmmaker who began directing in 2003, is celebrating his 59th birthday today. Hirani started his profession in the advertising sector before transitioning to the film industry. He provided a list of exceptional Bollywood films that he had selected over the years for Bollywood fans. Rajkumar Hirani, without a doubt, is the Indian director who has perfected the craft of engaging with socially pertinent issues. He understands how to integrate fun and thrills in his films, in addition to addressing societal themes. Hirani earned his first breakthrough as a film editor with Mission Kashmir in 2000, and three years later with Munna Bhai MBBS, he made his filmmaking debut. On the occasion of Rajkumar Hirani’s 65th birthday, let us take a look back at his masterpieces that not only topped the blockbuster charts but helped in impacting society on a larger scale.

Munna Bhai MBBS

Munna Bhai MBBS, starring Sanjay Dutt, is a humour-drama that provides plenty of giggles while also conveying the lesson that love can transcend sorrows. The iconic phrase from the film, “jaadu ki jhhappi,” and the ‘Munna -circuit jodi’ is still widespread among the populace.

PK

The “delicate topic” of Indian religious convictions, misconducts by godmen or gurus, and the myths surrounding it were eloquently handled by  Rajkumar Hirani in PK. Featuring  Aamir Khan and Anushka Sharma, the film received a lot of positive acclaim from both the audiences and reviewers.

Lage Raho Munna Bhai

Rajkumar Hirani’s Lage Raho Munna Bhai, featuring Sanjay Dutt once again, urged people to adopt Mahatma Gandhi’s beliefs. The film emphasised the value of non-violence.

Sanju

Sanjay Dutt’s tumultuous life is the subject of this biopic. Through the film, Rajkumar Hirani’s brilliant direction emphasized the problem of drug addiction among youth. ‘Sanju’ became one of the finest Bollywood hits thanks to Ranbir Kapoor and Vicky Kaushal’s excellent acting and Rajkumar’s screenplay.

3 Idiots

With 3 idiots, featuring Aamir Khan, R. Madhavan, Sharman Joshi, and Kareena Kapoor, Hirani explored the flaws in the Indian educational system. Not only in India, but throughout the world, three fools caused a storm.
