Abstract
This paper focuses on violations of Cooperative Principle in Three Idiots. Cooperative Principle is the premise and guarantee for a successful conversation. It requires people to abide by its sub-maxims in the process of verbal communication. However, for some reasons, Cooperative Principle is often violated to indicate a speaker’s real intention in an indirect way. This paper analyzes how the dialogues from the movie violate CP and which sub-maxim they violate. These analyses are beneficial for the audience to grasp characters’ real intention and to understand deeper signification of the film.
Key words: Dialogues, Cooperative Principle, Violation

1. Introduction
In Grice’s view, to converse with each other, the participants must first of all be willing to cooperate; otherwise, it would not be possible for them to carry on the talk. This general principle is called Cooperative Principle, abbreviated as CP (He 2017). This definition has emphasized the significance of Cooperative Principle in our daily verbal communication. That is to say, people’s observance to CP has a direct effect on whether the communication can be conducted successfully. But in real life, not everyone will completely abide by CP for certain reasons. Furthermore, similar phenomena often occur in films, where the characters violate CP deliberately to reach their own intentions. This paper studies into the violations of CP in the film Three Idiots.
