Rancho versus Riz


Rancho (Phunsuk Wangdu – Aamir Khan’s character in 3 idiots) versus Riz (Rizwan Khan – Shahrukh Khan’s character in My Name is Khan)

Both are extremely popular lead characters and both have lead their films to create box office legend. However, both are complete opposites of each other.


Rancho is self-assured, intelligent, confident and mature beyond his years. Riz is disadvantaged and challenged in several ways and yet is confident enough to hold his own regardless of who he is up against.

Rancho oozes charm and can sometimes be a smug brat while Riz endears with his haplessness. His stubbornness and unpredictability land him trouble regularly.

What is it about each one that appeals to you and why?

What is it about each one that puts you off and why?
