Aamir Khan's 3 Idiots movie is a big sensation this year in Taiwan. I can't tell clearly if it is the bollywood music, Aamir's charm or the similar education system plot that the local are relating to. But 3 idiot DVDs are available in all major book and entertainment stores in best selling section. Movie played in the regular theatres for many weeks. Someone even mentioned that they were showing this movie in one of the corporate office conference room during the lunch time.
Many taxi drivers are chatty here and they love talking to you about which country you are from and moment you say India they talk about how pretty Indian women are, how smart and brainy Indian people are and / or Amitabh Bacchan. But in last six months or so Taxi drivers are talking about 3 Idiots and Aamir! So my dear Aamir, who cares whether you are King of bollywood or not, you live in the hearts of Taiwanese people and mine too :)
