7 Invaluable Life Lessons We Learned From YJHD!

The movie may be remembered due to the fact that it did record business in its opening week, but the real reason why YJHD deserves your attention and three hours of your time is because it will leave you more enlightened than a one-on-one session with Carl Jung himself. True story.

So forget all you know about logic and sanity, and have a look at the seven hidden lessons that you should have picked up from YJHD instead:

That shedding your nerdy avatar is the only way to restore your self-esteem.

The only thing needed to transition from ugly duckling to sizzling hot swan is a pair of specs. Fairy godmothers?! Who even needs em?

Enter the train DDLJ style, or die trying.

Wait till the train has started moving. Then wait some more until it has picked up speed. Then keep waiting until it is a hair's breadth away from leaving the station before snapping into action and endangering multiple lives by leaning on a stranger's hand - Said no railway safety manual EVER.

That nerds love to dress like this

Dangerously high hemlines and frilly frocks. Classic staples of a nerd's wardrobe. Not.

That miniskirts make for appropriate hiking attire.

Coz nothing says hiking trip as much as the bite of frozen ice against unprotected skin.

That Manali and Kashmir can be used interchangeably. Who can recognize one snow laden mountain from the other anyway?

Omar Abdullah can. And that is precisely what he did. Although we guess that the blame for this one rests with us, the audience. Had we put our foot down on all the illogical tropes we've been fed over the years, they probably wouldn't have considered our geographical knowledge weak enough to interchange Kashmir with Manali. This one is totally on us.

That true love sometimes involves letting go.

If you love someone, set him free. If he comes back, your love was true. If he doesn't, just cross all your fingers and pray that there'll be a rich heir waiting round the corner.

That true love also sometimes involves hanging around in wait for years together.

#Protip: Stock up on miniscule chaniya cholis while you are at it and you'll be good to go.
