This infuriates the principal and he stops all of them and even threatens to throw them out much like the fate of their music teacher. He encourages them and gives them ideas of winning the girls' favours. He learns of 3 such youngsters who had fallen in love to 3 different girls. Years later driven by his own passion and fuel, the young man returns to his old school determined to undo the wrongs that caused him so much misery and suffering. Her death drove her father to sheer rage that he drove her young lover a student of his own school, and stopped his education altogether, by refusing him admission in all of the contemporary schools. Little does he know that he is the former lover of his daughter who committed suicide since she couldn't be with him.
Back to the movie, Shahrukh plays a music teacher, whose appointment is much to the displeasure of the principal of the school. He became nominated to the Parliament because of his fame as a stupendous disciplinarian.
When Big B says those words that "Gurukul students hold top positions in all fields in the outside world, due to the strict discipline" I am forced to think back of Clifford Hicks, our principal in the late 60's. One of the prime reasons why I loved this movie is because the fictitious "Gurukul" is almost identical to my old school, Calcutta Boys'. I am not a Hindi movie buff, and I prefer watching English rather than the soapy Hindi movies but this 3 hour plus epic has to be an exception. I am not a Shahrukh fan but this has to be one of his best performances. One of the best Shahrukh Khan movies I must say.
