Aamir Khan's next movie Three Idiots being directed by Raju Hirani has many firsts to its credit. It was the first film to be shot at a Bangalore B-school.
Now in another first, they shot at a Powai engineering campus in Mumbai last week.

Special permission to shoot on theu00a0 premises have been requested.
The film was shot mostly in the mechanical labs of the institute and kids from the classes even said that the actor looked every bit like them.
