Olivier Lafont played the role of Suhas in the film
Rajkumar Hirani's 3 Idiots remains a timeless blockbuster and, to this day, people remember it for its brilliant story, versatile performances and soulful songs. While actors Aamir Khan, R Madhavan, Kareena Kapoor Khan and Sharman Joshi were showered with love for their characters, French actor Olivier Lafont's character Suhas was ridiculed for being an eccentric human embodiment of a 'price tag'. Olivier had a minute's role in the film. He essayed the character of Kareena Kapoor's fiance who was lampooned for his career choices and bragging about his wealth. Remember the famous chutney scene? While Kareena's fiance Suhas scolds her for wearing a cheap watch, Aamir approaches her with a piece of 'free advice' to not marry him. The scene gets hilarious when he proves that the man is a 'price tag,' by demonstrating how he shouts the price of his shoes when Aamir spills some chutney (sauce) on them.

One of the users shared a post on his analysis about Suhas and called him a 'good person' who valued money and was correct. "So, finally, this tweet reached the real Suhas of movie 3 Idiots, aka Olivier Lafont."
