30 Lessons we learn from the Bollywood movie – Shaadi Ke Side Effects:
1. Love is the foundation of a marriage.
2. The outcome can be vastly different in similar situations with similar actions & questions depending on different reactions & answers.
5. Doosron ke bacchon aur puppies ke saath khelna sabko acha lagta hai
9. Don’t force Pregnancy manuals and instructions to your wife, else the book might be attacked!
10. Listen to your feelings (even if it’s not written in any book!)
11. Just because one is awkward with the responsibility of a “balloon”, doesn’t
imply that he can’t be the “World’s best Papa!”
12. Mom knows better than Dad what exactly the kid needs or is feeling- Hungry, Hot, Cold…!
Bhook nahi, garmi lag rahi hai (Not hungry, hot)
Garmi nahi, sardi lag rahi hai (Not hot, cold)
Sardi nahi, bhookh lag rahi hai (Not cold, hungry)
19. The “Perfect family man, husband & father” may not be so perfect, especially who teaches, “Married life ke liye chhote chhote jhooth bolna padta hai…pyaar bharosa ghanta… buniyaad chhote chhote jhooth…”
(For a successful married life, you have to say small small lies to your wife…love trust zilch…foundation is small small lies…)
24. Agar akele sahi ho, to mujh mein family kyun dhoond rahe ho? We all need somebody…
(If you are okay by yourself, why are you looking for your family in me?)
25. Someone will recognize your worth someday, even if it's for a forgettable ad named Panchmola!
26. An Extra-Marital Affair doesn’t necessarily have to be with a person of the opposite sex. It is an affair if you divert your “wife’s share of attention” & invest it anywhere else, even if it’s an affair with a young carefree yourself, Boss, Work etc.
27. Zindagi mein kuch zyada paane ki chah mein hum wo kho dete hain jo paas hai.
(In our quest to get more in life, we lose out what’s near us)
1. Love is the foundation of a marriage.
2. The outcome can be vastly different in similar situations with similar actions & questions depending on different reactions & answers.
3. Say Sorry when you are wrong, Say Sorry even when your
partner is wrong.
4. Shaadi se zyada khartarnak hai Shaadi Ke Side Effects.
(Side Effects of Marriage are more dangerous than Marriage)

Love ur list Anita. It's awesome and the punch lines are true, serious and funny at the same times. You will make a great script writer:)
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot Vishal for your kind words :)
DeleteSKSE the movie had those lines in italics as dialogues :) All the lessons were in my mind ever since I watched the movie & had to share them!
I didn't see this either, but I like visiting your blog to read your views on them. :)
ReplyDeleteI know you wait for the TV-Premiere of movies. Do watch when they show this!
DeleteThanks Indrani for your encouragement & cool compliments :)
I saw the promos and want to watch this..Like Indrani I too wait for the TV premiere.:D
ReplyDeleteNice lessons here.
Yes Preethi :) The problem with waiting for the TV-Premiere is that there are too many ads...kills the joy...
DeleteBut, do watch & enjoy :D
haven't watched .. but those punch lines seems so true :D
ReplyDeleteRight Ankur! I can connect with the lines :D
DeleteYest only I watched this movie, and ya this list is just awesome!! :P
ReplyDeleteThanks Soundharya for the appreciation :)
DeleteWelcome to my Blog! Do keep visiting!
Ha ha I like the 5th one :D :D ... For some reason I missed this movie, doesn't usually happen with a Farhan's one.. Should get a copy sometime soon :).
ReplyDeleteThanks for the share, well thought out list. Hope the married men are reading this! :)
That's thanks to the movie's dialogue-writer, Vinay :)
DeleteFarhan's movies are a must-watch.
This list is for married men & women. For both it is essential as it takes two to tango :)
Unmarried folks, who are getting married, can also read this post & benefit! :)
Hahaha! Good I did not marry - tees ke tees mein FAIL :P
ReplyDeleteHeHe! Sureshji, words fail me! :)
DeleteHa Ha Ha! I enjoyed all the observations! I missed the movie, but it seems that all the funny dialogues you have listed here which seem to be applicable to all! I fully support 21 and have written a blog post on it, "in search of a maid". I hope you go through it. On a serious note, i liked 27, 29 and 30 the most and feel that they are the key to a happy married life!
ReplyDeleteRightly said, Ratna.
Delete27-30 are important for marital success. In fact, #28 is also needed as trust is important.
Thanks for sharing. I'll check out your post. Will be interesting for sure as it deals with Maid-search :)
Haven't watched this one but your observations are really enjoyable.. :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot Mani for your appreciation :)
