Vinnaithaandi Varuvaaya vs Real Life

 Watching Vinnaithaandi Varuvaaya(VTV) did rekindle the past.


As usual, in love, guys get the raw deal :). But there’s always a blessing in disguise.


Anyway, here’s a basic checklist of a guy’s love life:



1) No clear direction in life √

2) Fall in love with beautiful girl without knowing much or anything about her √

3) Romantic moments with girl(including duet song) √

4) Tense moments with girl (quarrels/fights) √

5) Get into fight with rowdies to defend girl √

6) Hide from relatives/friends of girl √

7) Start to focus on money to ensure lasting relationship √

8) Just as career is developing...work tension vs love life balance √

9) Ultimatum served by girl to choose her or career √

10) Meet the parents (in laws)....toughest steps √

11)    a) Rejection .....

i) Odipolama?..(elope)

ii) Start over from beginning or

iii) choose to make your own movie with a happy ending, and  invite her for the opening show

      b) Success ...... live happily ever after (yeah right :)!!!)



On the other hands, girls get the better deal:


1) Always focused on what they want in life... √

2) Maintain their sanity and choose the proper suitor √

3) Romantic moments are always under their control √

3) If suitor is unable to fulfill any conditions anytime, just ignore his calls until he  gives up finally as guys always lose in games of patience.. √

4) If suitor proves stubborn, just dump him and repeat step 2

5) Hide from friends/relatives until all conditions are suitable √

6) Torture guy to meet her parents √

7) If parents ok.......happy that you got an obedient husband and maintain him that way.... √

8) If parents are unhappy.........

i) Odipolama?

ii) Parents will find someone suitable

iii) Wait till parents change mind

iv) Dump the loser and repeat the process from step 2                    

In reality though....I did love a girl, and I do love her now even after marriage but in a it has definitely changed over the years. The challenges we faced during our courtship brought us closer and made us appreciate our relationship more


VTV ...perhaps it helped revive some of the lost romance in our life...
