The movie which revolves around three friends and their college days, releases tomorrow.

Loosely based on Chetan Bhagat’s bestseller Five Point Someone, the film has been produced by Vidhu Vinod Chopra, who has invested around Rs35 crore in it.Directed by Rajkumar Hirani, it also stars Sharman Joshi, R. Madhavan, Kareena Kapoor and Boman Irani.

To market the film, Aamir has been travelling across the country in different get-ups. His travels have so far taken him to Varanasi, Madhya Pradesh’s Chanderi district, former cricket captain Sourav Ganguly’s home in Kolkata, Jaipur and Punjab’s Faridkot district.

The story revolves around three engineering students - Rancho (Aamir), Farhan Qureshi (Madhavan) and Raju Rastogi (Sharman) - and their journey. The film covers every aspect of their lives including Rancho’s romance with Pia (Kareena) and his conflicts with their teacher Viru Sahastrabudhhe (Boman).

3 Idiots is about how Rancho influences his two friends and teaches them to live life on their own terms. But one day he vanishes leaving them to search for him.

The music of the film is already topping the charts with songs like Aal izz well, Zoobi doobi, Jaane nahin denge tujhe and Give me some sunshine.

This is the third year that Aamir’s movie is releasing in December after Taare Zameen Par and Ghajini. Will this Chopra-Hirani-Aamir collaboration strike gold at the box office and close 2009 on a happy note?
