"Listen Amaya" - A finest Attempt That Shouldn't Be Missed

It is sad that meaningful cinema is only appreciated when there are known faces or better say star power is associated with it. Have you wondered how many great pieces of arts have you missed just because of the fact that those movies either didn’t had super stars or were not backed by heavy advertisements and marketing. “Listen Amaya” is one amongst those movies. This movie by Avinash Kumar Singh was screened at London Asian Film Festival and what else could it receive other than hoards of appreciation. I recently watched the movie over DVD and for 2 hours I only enjoyed each and every scene of the movie.

“Listen Amaya” revolves around two widowed individuals Jayanat (Farooque Sheikh) and Leela (Dipti Naval) along with her daughter Amaya (Swara Bhaskar).Leela runs a library cum coffee shop, named “Book A Coffee” with her daughter and Jayant is her routine customer, friend, admirer and what not. The story revolves around these three individuals and the complications, self-respect and egos associated with their relationships. The plot is based on very thin line where words don’t need to express anything but emotions do. It is remarkably dealt as well, on screen.

I have grown up watching Dipti Naval’s and Farooque Sheikh’s off beat movies, also known as parallel cinema of early 1980’s. Movies like Chashm-e-Buddoor, Saath Saath, Kissi Se Na Kehna, Katha and Faasle etc. were a complete revelation from mainstream cinema. Coming back to “Listen Amaya”, it simply touches the hearts of audience. There are many sequences where Farooque Sheikh and Dipti Naval express their emotions with extreme ease. Swara Bhasker (Amaya) expresses her uneasiness with flaw. The contradictory personalities can only be show-cased by a seasoned actress. She is another actress to look out for after Tabu, Nandita Das and Vidya Balan.

Music of the movie is very light. The beauty is that all the songs are situational (though movie’s length could have been decreased if the songs would be omitted). Direction is first rate and so is cinematography.

If you are looking forward to watch a simple, easy going, full of mature emotions movies then this one is the perfect one. “Listen Amaya” is all about emotions and performances. It is highly recommended for those who value quality cinema or let me say a meaningful cinema.

I would personally rate it 4/5 on the basis of story line, script, performances and close to reality.

Generation – We Belong To

With the passage of time mankind has faced a lot of changes and this is the reason why we say that the only thing constant in life is “change”. Mankind has been divided into generations by philosophers. They named it Greatest Generation (those who were born before 1946) because no one wants to call themselves inferior – no matter what.

Those who were born from 1946 to 1964 are known as The Baby Boomers. Have you ever considered why? They used to boom and bang everything that used to come their way. Babies love to bang and that was the reason which made them bombastic.

There was another generation which was into “X” activities by default, may be because of the outburst of multi-faucet genes which they had. Obviously no other name could suit them other than Generation X (those who were born from 1965 to 1979). That was the same generation which gifted the concept of hippies – living like weirdos, eating like animals, drinking like as if there is not formation of urine and staying dirty like pipe holes. They used to have kids which never liked to call them dads / moms but bonkers.

This generation from 1980 – 2010 is known as “Generation Y”. God knows what would be the reason behind calling my generation “WHY”. May be its because of the fact that after experiencing with 3 generations and not getting it “WHY there is no improvement in mankind” they might have named it “Generation Y”.

There are some other grounds on which I can conclude that why this Generation is known as “Y”. Following are the observations:

This generation keeps on asking questions like:

1. Why (Y) should I study?
2. Why (Y) should I work, if my dad is already earning like anything and minting money by adopting corruption?
3. Why (Y) should I get out of bed when I can have everything available on my bed, be it breakfast, play station, video game, cell phone, food, drinks and even a girl to get nasty with? Last but not least a bedpan too.
4. Why (Y) should I buy food for myself when my parents are there to bear all my responsibilities?
5. Why (Y) should I get married when I can date women and have whatever I desire?

Last but not the least, following is the perfect example to describe the concept behind calling this generation “Generation Y”

Relax and Enjoy - For Adults Only

I am sure we all are fatigued with out professional lives' and personal complexities. I have been facing same myself lately! And the following link made me relax! Literally! It took me back to the days when I was a kid, life was simpler, easier and my mistakes were overlooked or better say I was given chances to give another shot unlike today!

Music is eternal. Don't have much words for this post as it doesn't need words! just quietness and some old memories. Am sure every one of you can relate to every song, if you have lived that phase, which is known as "LIFE"

It also reminded me those GEET MALAS which we used to rent back in late 80's and early nineties. Oh Those days were awesome!

Ek Tha Tiger? Or Ek Tha “Copycat”?

The most anticipated movie of 2012 “Ek Tha Tiger” is released with a bang. Before the release all the tickets were sold, it was hard to get tickets even for the 5^th day of the release. The reason behind it was nothing but Salman Khan’s box office power, which has yet again proved to be the ace in marketing any movie, and yes I mean “Any Movie”. YashRaj needs no introduction for those who are avid film viewers. Director Kabir Khan (Kaabul Express and New York) managed to justify his inspirations quite well. Here we all must know “inspiration” is just a modified name of “copying”.

The storyline of the movie is nothing that audiences haven’t witnessed before. It is about a RAW agent with a code name of “Tiger”, played by Salman Khan and an ISI agent named Zoya, played by “Katrina Kaif”. Tiger is sent on a mission to Dublin, just to observe the movements of Indian scientist (Roshan Saith) because according to Tiger’s chief Roshan might be involved in sharing some research finding with Pakistan’s defense. There Tiger meets Zoya and their romance starts to blossom. After that it’s a movie with lots of chase, lots of action and so many predictabilities.

ETT is a bravura combination of multiple movies, script wise along with action sequences hugely inspired from west. For instance the script of the movie is a combination of Mr. and Mrs. Smith, One of the movies from James Bond’s series and a few more (in bits and pieces). The most talked about action sequences of ETT are, also to huge extent, copied from 2 blockbusters “Fast 5” (starting scene and when Kat and Sallu escape from their hideout); the climax is again inspired from Expendable’s climax when local Sly jumps from bridge on to the jet plane.

As far as the performances are concerned, Salman is as usual – he is already a “STAR” and for stars performances are not benchmarks (on the basis of past release like Dabbang, Ready and Wanted). Salman Kan looks cute, sober and serious with this movie as well. Katrina is a complete performer now! She surprises everyone with her performance, dialogue delivery and hotness. Ranvir Shorey grabs the role exceptionally well, there are scenes where he doesn’t even speak but his presence is strongly felt – after a long time this actor is truly been utilized. Direction is good, better than other recent Bollywood movies (excluding GoW 1 and 2, Rockstar, Pan Sigh Tomar, Vicky Donor, Shanghai, Jannat 2,  and a few others).

Music of ETT is nice – nothing exceptional. Cinematography is worth experiencing – hats off to Aseem Mishra. 

Watch this film if you are a Salman Khan’s or Katrina’s fan; else there won’t be much for you in this fare.

The Expendables 2 Movie Review – Band Of Geriatric Goons

The Expendables 2 is definitely amongst the most anticipated releases of 2012, at least for those who are diehard fans of real action heroes like Sly Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger (Arnie), Jason Statham, Chuck Norris, Jet Li, Bruce Willis and last but not the least Jeanne Claude Vann Damme. For many viewers and movie buffs this movie would be a dream cum true to see all their action icons sharing one screen.

If we talk about the plot of the movie its not a rocket science in fact its quite simple. If you have watched Expendables 1 and know the storyline, Sly and his team blew up Willis plan. So, in second episode of Expendables, Willis wants to send Sly and his men to another mission to retrieve something of significance value before bad men can get their hold of. Willis introduces them with a female mercenary – Nan Yu, who can lead them in certain situations. Anyways, the team heads off for the mission, without knowing the seriousness caused by the Villain of the movie Jean Claude Van Damme. The rivalry turns into personal when Van Damme brutally murders one of Sly’s gang mates. From there the movie transforms into a new journey – journey of revenge!

The the plot does not make a bit of sense at many places, as it only involves explosions, chases and blood shattering scenes. “Track em. Find em. Kill’em”. Is what the movie is all about – Dialogue spouted by Sly for the bad guys.

This time the movie is focused more on fun and action. The chemistry between Statham and Sly is amazing. Similarly, Arnold’s presence is a treat. Chuck Norris Steals the show in a brief cameo. Bruce Willis is there for – making his presence felt, else he was not technically needed for more than one scene. Jean Claude Van Damme looks ruthless, acts much better and fights perfectly! The real action heroes of this ride are Statham, Van Damme and Sly. Those who bring smiles are Arnie, Sly and Statham. The ones whose presence catches you by surprise are Arnie and Chuck (in every scene).

This particular movie has received mixed responses from audiences. According to some geriatric goons are back, for others it’s a star packed salute to fans of action movies and for others its far too weak for its fury. It’s a pure 80’s and 90’s idea with same era’s super stars in new packaging. Director Simon West gives his best after almost fifteen years, which was Con Air.

Recommended to all those who want to watch their Action icons together. Bad-Ass Action flick with corny one-liners like
"I pronounce you Man and Knife", "Rest in Pieces", "Do you want to hit me like a Man or Shit" and last but not the least
Sly: "I think it belongs to a Museum"
Arnie: "We all DO"

Rating 7.5/10

EID MUBARAK

Eid Mubarak (Eid Greetings) to all my followers, readers and every person from all over the world!

I thank you all for being a continuous support!

Is Watching Movies In Ramazan a Sin?

Is it me or others as well, who at times burst out into laughing after focusing on a few facts preached to us by our elders, regarding Islam? We all know (in fact we are moralized) that in Ramazan it is simply not allowed to watch movies, especially Indian movies. But we can watch Pakistani dramas and morning shows where we (Pakistani audience) encounter some blooming faces (both genders), sugar coating their audiences with their charisma and bravura performances of being nice and sweet personalities – as if they are the best preachers of religion, humanity and human race.

I simply ask people with this mentality, why is that every one watches Olympics but strictly says a “No” for watching movies? Why is it that we (Muslims) can watch Ramazan’s especial transmission featuring our favorite celebrities all dressed up in branded / designer’s clothing (which are mostly body fitted nowadays)? We are not allowed to discuss movies and songs during “Roza”, but we thoroughly enjoy discussing actresses’ or presenters’ controversies by getting updates from Google.

I am sure this is nothing new, those individuals who have witnessed the era of 90’s, NTN’s and STN’s names still ring bells in their mind, they can easily remember that back in those days most of us were not allowed to watch movies on rent during Ramazan or Muharram, but it was completely acceptable to watch the movies which used to be telecasted on the mentioned channels. Even at that time it was quite paradoxical for me to understand. I just don’t get it why don’t we focus? Why do we always have to jump to conclusion?

I am not saying that watching a movie is not a sin but all I am trying is to ask "how long will we play with our religion? How long will we complicate it?" Why aren't we preached like

“Be it Ramazan or any other month of the year, watching a movie is prohibited in Islam”

It is not just that watching “Khuda Kay Liay” is permissible whereas watching “Dirty Picture” is “Al-Haram”. We can watch girls playing different games like beach volleyball, diving, swimming, synchronized swimming, and trampoline in skimpiest dresses, in the name of Olympic Games and art but we can not watch an actress’s interview on TV channels.

The problem with PBCM – (Pakistani Born Confused Muslims) is that they don’t ask questions. They will ask hundreds of question to their parents, teachers and friends related to career move, best educational institutions, etiquettes and fashion but they will not ask a simple question “Why” under the topic of religion. This is the reason why today, we have grown to accept the fact that

“Never ask a question related to Islam or Politics, it will only end up in an argument or clash”.

I am sure this is something which we all have heard at one or more than one places in our lives. Let us hope that we (Pakistanis and Muslims) start to ask questions, so that in future we can answer our children questions raised by them logically and not saying “Hush, don’t ask such questions, just follow what is being taught to you”. A slave is not allowed to ask questions, but in Islam mankind is allowed to ask as many questions as possible – to make others understand the crux of this beautiful and complete religion.

Finally, is watching movie in Ramazan a Sin? And Watching Dramas, Morning Shows, Cricket Matches or Olympic Games are all allowed?

In Bollywood Mistake is Equal to Competition

Bollywood needs no introduction. Even if there are people who strongly condemn others to watch Indian movies also know about the very industry really well. They might ask who our foreign minister or education minister is, but they sure know the names of character actors of Bollywood industry. Anyways, in life everyone commits mistakes and takes wrong decisions. Those decisions can make things, sort of worse, for them. Bollywood is a perfect example of, one losing the opportunity and the other making a land mark. Today’s feature is dedicated to the mistakes committed by renowned actors and creation of another star.

Amitabh Bachchan’s God Father/Mother

I don’t know where to start from! Ok let’s talk about the star of the millennium “Amitabh Bachchan”. Today he is a known personality, brand ambassador, known as “SIR” but do you guys know in the beginning of his career with Tinnu Anand (director/actor) in Saath Hindustani, he was known for delivering flops and only flops!? His landmark was “Zanjeer” which made him enjoy the title of “Angry Young Man”. This movie was initially offered to Dev Anand (Late), which he declined. Later Salim Khan (Famous Writer and Father of Salman Khan) recommended Amitabh to the producers. Similarly, for Deewar the role which Amitabh played was initially offered to Rajesh Khanna (Late) but due to his unavailability of dates the role was later given to Amitabh Bachan. See! His 2 magnanimous hits were mistakes of other Stars and for him they were the opportunities. (Let me clarify that, most of the people have this misconception that Amitabh was already a star when Sholay was released– Wrong, at that time, Dharmender was MEGA Star, Sanjeev Kumar and Jaya Bahadury were critics' favorites and Hema Malini was the Dream Girl of millions of hearts. Amjad Khan was a fresher. Last but not the least Amitabh was a struggling actor, making his place in the industry, according to some sources it is also heard that Feroze Khan (Late) was the first choice for the role of Amitabh. Senior Bachchan is definitely lucky, apart from being talented. (It was Jaya, his Godmother, who strongly recommended him for most of his movies).

ACE Khan’s Real “Ace of Life”

Now let’s talk about the Ace Khan! Though his almost every movie is an amazing piece of entertainment, but those who can recall the days just after QSQT (Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak), will agree to me, when he kept giving flops like “Love Love Love’, “Jawani Zindabad”, “Dewana Mujh sa nahin”, “Awwal Number”, “Tum mere ho” and “Daulat ki Jung” etc! 8 – 9 straight flops after QSQT? Do you think anyone was willing to cast him, as main lead, back in those days? It was Anil Kapoor who backed off from the movie called “DILL” which brought Ace khan back in lime light and he was again a “STAR”. According to Anil Kapoor the movie demanded much younger actor and he was not comfortable in working with new director “Inder Kumar” (Aruna Irani’s younger Brother). After realizing his mistake, Anil Kapoor signed the very next project by Inder Kumar named “Beta” which became a gigantic hit of Anil’s career.

“Khiladi’s” Real Game Planner

We all recognize him by the name of “Khiladi” but do we know who was initially offered the role of “Khiladi”? It was Arbaz Khan, who was approached and was actually planned to be launched but due to his modeling assignments Akshay Kumar got lucky! And Now Khiladi will always be associated with Akki!

  

Salman Khan Stepped into whose Shoes?

Though Sallu Bhai “Salman Khan” was introduced in “Bivi ho toh Aisee” as second lead but “Maine Pyar Kiya” gave him Stardom and S. P. Bala Subhramannium’s voice, (which at that point of time reminded people of the bond between Rajesh Khanna and Kishore's songs). All the songs sung by SP Bala for Salman were huge hits. This particular role from which his pet name became “PREM” was actually offered to none other than Piyush Mishra, (the same Gulaal and Gangs of Wassaypur guy). Due to his lack of seriousness at that time he dropped the movie (reported by Piyush Mishra, himself). If you talk about the performance, definitely, Piyush Mishra is way ahead of Sallu Bhai!

SRK’s Kingdom – Gifted To him By...

Last but not the least! Amir Khan can be called as a rival of Shah Rukh Khan. But if Shahrukh Khan is a "King Khan" (according to himself) then his kingdom was gifted to him by Aamir Khan by backing out from the project named “Darr”. His films like "King Uncle", “Chamatkaar”, “Dil Ashna Hai”, “Kabhi Haan Kabhi Na”, “Maya Memsaab” and “Raju bun gaya gentleman” were box office disasters! From 1990 to 1993. Again he was lucky by chance!

Few more interesting facts!

Role of Gabbar Singh in Sholay was initially offered to Sanjeev Kumar and not Amjad Khan.
Similarly the role of Mugambo was first given to Anupam Kher but the he could not bring the kind of terror whichwas the signature of Amrish Puri (Late).

I hope this information has been interesting for you! I have kept this knowledge to me since a long; I suppose it is the time to share it with my readers!

By the way this article was inspired from the following scene from “Main Khiladi Tu Anari” one of my favorite ones from Akki’s performances.

Evolution of Pakistani Pop Music – Part A/C

Remember M.C.C? Music Channel Charts! I am sure those who remember or witnessed it even once can never forget it for the kind of music that was shown back in those days! Today’s Rock-stars were kids (or in making) back then and used to struggle real hard for making their place in music world where Ghazals and Qawwalis were appreciated. Arid Zone (Yasir Akhter), Yatagan (Nadeem Jaffery and Fakhr e Alam), Vital Signs (Junaid Jamshaid), Bunny, Junoon (Ali Azmat), Ali Haider, Fringe Benefits, Collage, PHON (Shahzad Roy) and Sequencers (Misbah Khalid) and many others were some prominent names of 90’s and they are still appreciated for the music that they created in a period when, at least Pakistani media was not blessed with greater technology and equipments as compared to west.

At that time many people used to think that the Pop Music was only about jumping from here and there holding either a microphone or guitar in hand and dancing but even then the music hit the world and not just Pakistan because of its lyrics. There were numerous singers and bands back in those days who tried to give their 100% to let Pakistani nation accept Pop Music as a genuine kind of music genre by focusing and concentrating on not just some amazing music but also lyrics. The strangest thing is that most of the singers were based NRP’s (Non Residing Pakistanis), they returned to Pakistan after completing their graduation from abroad – I am not talking about all, but most.

Junoon

Junoon means Passion and truly the band could never be a grand success without the passion. Salman Ahmed the lead guitarist and Song writer from Vital Signs created his own band with Ali Azmat as lead vocalist (former Jupiter’s Singer back then) and Brian O’Connell, Ahmed’s childhood friend. They have released 19 albums under the Band name of “Junoon”. They were and are the singing sensation and crowd pullers of 90’s and 2000’s. I can still remember girls going crazy in Junoon’s concerts and guys dancing like anything. They are true “Rockers” of Pakistani Pop Music Industry.

Ali Azmat In Jupiters

Bunny

“Dil mein Tum Honton mein Tum” was Bunny’s anthem which he gifted to the nation! This song was the ultimate hit with out a doubt. He was amongst the pioneers of the Pakistani Pop Music. He produced and directed as well. His other ground breaking hit included “Teri yeh Shuokh Adayen”.

Yatagaan – Fakhr-e-Aalam and Nadeem Jafferey

This young guy, named Fakhr-e-Aalam, became instant hit who God knows came from another planet! He was the true rapper of Pakistani Pop Music in 90’sand still he is unbelievable. His first song “Bhangra Rap” was an overnight success. I still remember when the song was show cased on MCC, the starting of the song made me lose my interest because of the “Raag Thing” but then he took everyone by surprise with his talent. His first song stayed on number one's slot for more than 4 - 5 weeks I suppose. His other famous songs include “Proud Pakistani”, “Baby Zara Hans Kay” and “Laut Aao” – The most expensive video of its time.

They are number of women who have become influential and have set examples for rest of the women in Pakistan. They believe that if you have the talent and if you stand firm on your decision with determination then nothing is impossible. Women in Pakistan can easily follow their dreams if they have the motivation to accomplish them. Some of the astonishing living examples are as follows:

                                                                             

·         Shirmeen Obaid Chinoy:

 She is the first person who took Pakistan to an international pedestal and became the first Pakistani who not only got nominated but won an Oscar for her documentary film “Saving faces.” She is a pride for the people of Pakistan especially for women. “Times Magazine” also included her name in its annual issue for the most influential people of the world in 2012.

·       Nadia Khan:

She has become a household name with her spontaneous and witty personality. She has been able to win the hearts of her fans with her comeback on Geo TV.

She has used the platform wisely by having discussions on social issues faced by the women and has also tried to resolve them (to certain extent). She has been a great supporter of women and has always tried to create opportunities for women.

P.S:

Irrespective of all the controversies and personal opinions believe it or not these women have changed the way our (Pakistani) society thinks, observes and acts, in one way or the other. I respect them and pay homage to their achievements which can never be enjoyed by anyone without hard work, dedication and strong determination.

Teri meri kahani – It’s Everyone's Story – Movie Review

To me it was really strange to not to hear any buzz about Kunal Kohli’s, Shahid Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra starrer, new release “Teri Meri Kahani”. How can anyone forget “Hum Tum”? The same director created a magic! Anyways, after almost a week of the movie’s release I got a chance to watch “Teri Meri Kahani”. I, actually, watched the movie out of curiosity of why it was/is not much talked about!

The movie is about two characters, Shahid Kapoor as (Javed, Fovind and Krish) and Priyanka chopra as (Aradhna, Rukhsaar and Radha) who meet in 3 different eras 1910, 1960 and 2012. This movie is all about eternal love which at times we call the “connection”. I will not spoil the fun by disclosing the complete synopsis of the movie in short it is for those who have ever fallen in love. From the start to the end the movie looks interesting, lovely and sweet.

Shahid Kapoor excels in all three roles which he has performed in this movie. I will like to mention one thing that in all the 3 roles he portrayed the character of a 3 different guys in same age brackets yet all the characters are so diversified, ditto for Priyanka Chopra. Undoubtedly both actors are the finest performers of this age.

All the songs of this movie are amazing. Those songs which stand out are “Allah Janay”, “Hum se Pyar Karlay tu” and “Jab se mere dilko”. For love stories music plays the role of a spinal cord and this movie is blessed with one strong backbone.

Kunal Kohli has delivered his honest attempt and throughout the movie am sure audiences will have smiles on their faces. All the eras are perfectly shot.

The era of 1910’s is the highlight of the movie, script, performance and emotions wise. The era of 1960’s will surprise most of the critical audiences with the detailing. The way trams were shown, their speed, colors, attires, fashion and even the way people used to communicate. The depiction of 2012 is really close to day to day life.

This movie is highly recommended for those who have ever loved someone with all their hearts. I will also highly recommend this flick for those who enjoy and want to see a well made movie.

If you are married watch it! It will rejoice old times. If you are in a relation, watch it, it will strengthen your relation and if you are finding true love! It will help you in understanding one!

10 Steps That Can Lead To Breakup - Part 2

As Promised! I am back with more pointers to save you guys from being dumped by your sweetie pies! The strangest thing is that, after posting “10 Steps That Can Lead to Break-Up – Part 1” I did not hear much from guys, but women (oops! Girls) contacted me through messages and agreed to some points. Hats-off to those girls who accepted the facts! I really admire the way you all are comfortable with yourselves and your attitudes. With the passage of time, I have come across some more pointers which can help a man to be shielded from the slash of the sword, named breakup. Following are some more lifesavers.

1. You Don’t Like Her Parents? Never Breathe a Word!

What if she develops an allergy for your parents? It’s the same way. Try to respect her parents even if you don’t feel respecting them. None of the couples is perfect! Is yours? Or will it remain the way it currently is? So, the bottom-line is no matter how pain they are or can be in the most private parts, bear a smile on your face (at least TRY) and keep silence in the air because at times clashes of opinions with her parents can ignite her volcanic engine. 

2. Never Flirt With other Women In front of Her

Men will be men! They won’t stop in admiring, appreciating and cheating (if provided in one way or the other). We all know it is hard to not to stare back to that gorgeous woman with a tag “Oh! Watch me”. And if she by any means is talking with you in front of your spouse, be very choosy in using the words, as you won’t stop flirting and your spouse won’t stop spying! If she can be questionable to the fact that your eyes landed on another woman’s assets, just imagine what can be her response when you will actually get flirtatious with her!

3. Discontinue going out with your friends too often

It has been seen that guys don’t usually change – they stay the way they are. I also hear it a lot to which I always say “Perfection is Contact”. Anyways, most of us are outgoing with our friends and like to make plans to visit places and enjoy together. If you keep on continuing these activities of yours be sure that soon your spouse will also make a “girls’ night out” plan and always remember, you are not the only one who is good with distracting and admiring women when out with your friends! Competition is in the air! 

4. Are you trying to explain her “Why you have Porn / Vulgar Stuff in your Laptop”?

If, (God Forbid), she checks out your personal folder named as “Software Files” and asks you about the stuff that it has never try to explain in detail the real fact! Details will give her more questions to ask which may lead to quite unusual situation. Admit the fact, that you are a dog, apologize and delete the folder. Later, start saving the files in some other folder or with other names and extensions! Men won’t change! Just like women can not change their shopping habits and gossiping craze!

5. She Comes First Before Your Mom

If you are in a catch 22 situation and want an opinion, never disclose that you have already asked from your mom about what to do! Don’t let her get angry by making her realize that she is a 2^nd person in your life! She should always come first!

6. Praise Her More Than Her Outfit

No matter what she wears, no matter how ridiculous she looks in the name of “Fashion” or “Style Statement” just use 3 words! “You Look Fantastic”

7. Never Use her Shower Products

She is very peculiar about her belongings and shower products are her essentials. The treasure with which she smells, looks and feels good!

8. Stop Watching TV Shows Featuring Hot Girls

For a woman, if video games, magazines and laptops can be competitions then keeping the same theory in mind how can you possibly digest that she will allow you to watch a program that features hot girls with some steamy and revealing outfits. I have stopped watching Californication – and she have no idea how much I miss Hank Moody!

9. Stay the way you are in short DON’T GET FAT

She agreed to be with you or chose you mainly because of the way you looked back then. If you want her to feel the same thing throughout, stay in shape. Don’t get expanded.

10. Video Games with Her? Insane?

If you think that she will accompany you in playing a play station or X-Box with you, you sure are in no need of a spouse then. She can never stand the reality that you are ignoring her and getting all indulged and excited in playing video games and expressing your emotions loudly for that.
