Taare Zameen Par (2007) Ishaan, a young boy, growing under the shadow of his academically achieving brother, is criticised by his parents for his lack of focus on his studies. He is sent away to a boarding school for a more `disciplined` approach to studies against his will. However, Ram, the art teacher realises he has dyslexia and helps him uncover his potential.  From the struggles of a child with learning disability to the pure child-like innocence portrayed by Darsheel Safary, this is an emotional ride and makes for a perfect watch today
