High School Musical trilogy- One of the best Disney Channel originals

Being a high school kid, I can relate to this movie extremely well. Be it high school musical, where students are new to the whole system and take their time to understand how things work in high school, or high school musical 2 where friends break apart because of the interference of careers and other relations, or even high school musical 3 when the students finally realize how much time has flown by and now they've got only so many days left with each other, teenagers can relate to every part of the trilogy.

More than the storyline it's the songs that got me interested in this movie. The casting has been done brilliantly and each role has been played with utmost perfection. Zac Efron, Vanessa Hudgens, Ashley Tisdale, Lucas Grabeel, Corbin Bleu and Monique Coleman, all amazing singers and impeccable actors have been given perfect roles which reflect their personalities.
                                                     
In high school musical, Gabriella (Vanessa Hudgens) is the new kid at school. Stumbling and falling she kind of understands that in every school there are a set number of people for each field, like the basketball players, the nerds and geeks, the drama club and more. Gabriella was always a wiz kid but she had a passion for singing. Accidentally she auditioned for the up coming song recital and all hell broke lose at school. It was the first time someone had stepped out of their field and tried something different. Through this, Troy Bolton (Zac Efron) befriends Gabriella who also shares the same desire to sing but is a part of the basketball team. Through all the difficulties the two make time for practices and deliver their song in the recital. The best songs of the movie are 'Stick to the status quo' and 'Breaking free. 

High school musical 2 takes place in the summer after school year ends. Gabriella decides to go to her moms place and Troy decides to search for jobs to save money for college. At the same time, the twins, Sharpay and Ryan go to their parents' country club, Lava Springs. Seeing this as an opportunity, Sharpay invites Troy to work at the club. His friends decide to tag along and after a lot of convincing, they are all hired. The midsummer night's talent show is righ around the corner and Sharpay decides to do a duet with Troy, disregarding her all-time partner, Ryan. Outraged, Ryan teams up with Troy's friends and they start practicing for their song. In the meantime, Sharpay sends out a notice which says that no staff member will be allowed to perform. The night if the show has arrived and Troy decides that he'll do his song only if his friends can do it too. So, after the talent show, All's well that ends well. The best songs of this musical are 'You are the music in me', 'Gotta go my own way' and 'All for one'.

Senior year! This was it! The last year for fun and memories...the last year to be together. So, their drama incharge, Ms. Darbus, decided to get all of them involved in the Spring Musical. All the boys were petrified by the thought of prom while the girls were dreaming of it already. By the end of the year everyone had a beautiful musical and left for their own way...

Three years of high school are the ones to be cherished and remembered forever. Never let them fade away.
