3 Idiots is a 2009 Indian Hindi-language coming-of-age comedy-drama film written, edited and directed by Rajkumar Hirani, co-written by Abhijat Joshi and produced by Vidhu Vinod Chopra. The film stars Aamir Khan, R. Madhavan and Sharman Joshi in the title roles, with Kareena Kapoor, Boman Irani, Mona Singh and Omi Vaidya in supporting parts. Narrated through two parallel timelines, one in the present and one set ten years earlier, the story follows the friendship of three students at an Indian engineering college and is a satire about the intrinsic paternalism of the Indian education system.

Is 3 Idiots based on a novel?
It was adapted loosely from Chetan Bhagat's novel Five Point Someone.
Yes. 3 Idiots was adapted loosely from Chetan Bhagat's novel Five Point Someone, so the film keeps the idea of friends at an engineering college but is not a faithful retelling of the book.
