Lessons we have learnt from watching Malayalam Movies

A rain or a garden is an essential setting for a proposal. Generations and movies may come and go, but rains and a fragrance of flowers are unavoidable. The words might flow easier in that ambiance!

Your crush's boyfriend will always have a six-pack, money, and everything that the hero doesn’t possess. Remarkably shown in movies like Thattatin Marayatu, 1983 and many others, this is a fact that often breaks the hearts of the hero and the viewers.

The drunkards must always wear a shaggy and tattered Lungi. No negotiations on their attire are entertained until such a free-flowing and trouble free piece of cloth like the lungi hits the market.
Ghosts in the Conjuring series are nothing when we have the White sari adorned beautiful ladies walking out at midnight amidst the mist and cool breeze with a melodious song played in the background. How can we forget those long untied tresses and that sweet shrilled laughter, showing off her long fangs!!..

The servant in the house should always be the least clothed. She must be the love interest of the head of the house and the huge black mark in the eye of his wife. Something is cooking outside the kitchen!
A Maruti Omni and a bottle of chloroform are the necessities if you are heading for a kidnap. Make sure the Omni door works properly and you stay away from the chemical dipped handkerchief.

Girlfriends need to be extremely modern and wives need to be extremely traditional. Who doesn’t wish to have a risk- free life!
Never will the crush give a proper reply to the proposals. A song is an essential for the girl to rethink on the guy’s loyalty. A time lag to be covered up by the music director showing his talents.
Let your child head to Bangalore and have them return with loose morals

Planning a visit to Fort Kochi? Then, welcome to the hub of all types of drugs, alcohol and other immoral practices.
Never forget to take a look into the historically relevant Mattancherry: the ‘only place’ in Kerala for goons who can’t be beaten up by anyone, even Mafia Sasi.

Marry a girl. All the mental and physical problems challenging the hero will be erased out. From the legendary Thalathil Dineshan to the laymen’s heartthrob Pambu Joy, marriage was indeed a retreat.
Worried about a daughter who is in relation with a guy of opposite caste/ religion/ financial status? Just lock her up in a room, and spend a few moments torturing and blackmailing her with some sentimental dialogues, to enter the next scene where she marries another man to lead a ‘happy-life’.

All that is required to quiet a stubborn woman is a slap across her face, no matter who delivers it. A sudden leap onto the bed and a cry lasting for a few minutes and the associated silence that may gulp a few more hours are much better than the uncontrollable blabber and chatters.
