1.Never miss a marriage of your friend in the village because some city figures do come there and they may or you may get interested in each other. 2. Never ask a stranger about a girl unless you are sure that he is not her father. 3. If you travel by train please look out of the window ... 4. All software engineers think logically... [Or at least they think so] otherwise how would you end up to 70 females from 3.5 million?? [And they have a couple of them as friends who would agree to this logic] 5. When you first meet your girl and she shouts at you and asks whether you have no other work, take this word:" that is the best sign a relationship can get started with" and don't forget to speed in the beach shouting at the top of your voice "Ava enna thittita!!!" 6. The easiest way to let your parents know your lover is to invite her to your house and inform others about your plan.[and she should know to sing "alai payuthey" with a voice like Harini!] 7. When you say "I love you" try to know what it means because girls nowadays expect you to know what it means.. [Hero: "I Love You" Heroine:"appadina"??] 8. Never let your parents to go and do the talking! They spoil it up. 9. When a girl says about 20 weeks and 20 months logic wrt lover and parents don't worry, she would be the first one to defect! 10 . When your daughters suddenly wear gorgeous Saris please be sure that she is either going to her kadhalan's house for a function or getting thiruttu married. 11. When you do a "Thiruttu Kalyanam" get Rahman to sing his version of "Mangalyam Thanthunane" since the old version is considered unauspicious in such occasions! 12. Even marriage registrars are happy about "thiruttu kalyanams". 13. When you hug your wife's sister [for reasons of your own] make sure your wife is not in the vicinity. Your wife's husband won't mind though. 14. There is some "Ilicha vaayan" Software company in Californiawho would give a $2 million contract to a software outfit in Chennai with a staffing of 5 to 6 people. 15. If one of your friends or brother go for "Pen Parkkum Padalam", go with him since she might have a younger sister who might "not" be married 16. Even Doctors are caught up in the TLA [Three Letter Acronyms] frenzy. They have their own TIG [Trust in God] 17. After Doctors say TIG, it is finally the lover crying in the bedside which would finally let the patient come out of Coma. 18. and finally the message of the film: When you talk to your girl please add this line: "Nee alaga illai..nee illama vazha mudiyathunnu ninaikkale....aana please road cross pannum pothu paathu cross pannu"
Some more lessons: 1. Learn to live in a house without a roof. 2. When your box is thorwn out from the second floor learn topick it up properly and stuft it back and say " Inimey unakku naan, enakku nee thaan'. 3. With Karthik's business yet to take off and Sakthi studying find out how they manage. 4. When your girlfriend's classmate says she has gone to U.S., keep cool. 5. You can take money form your mom in thousands and say "manage panniko". 6.Towels and bedsheets are handy to roll and wrap and sing "Kadhal Sadugudu". 7.
