Shadi ke Side-effects- Film Review

They say learning never stops. And this was proved to be correct as I watched this movie called Shadi ke Side-effects (The Side-effects of Marriage).

Summary of what I learnt-

1. Marriage results in kids. Pregnancy tests have a failure rate of 10%, 5% or 3% based on how many you get done.

2. Four kids at a time (your own) are scary.

3. One kid and a wife is a deadly combo if you are the husband.

4. An album (music) takes 5-7 years to make. And just when you get a producer for it, you may not want the album. At this rate, S.D. Burman would have given music to three films in his career, and R.D. Burman would have been trying to get a film all through his.

5. Only mothers know if a kid is warm, cold or hungry. Fathers are dumb, dumb, dumb...

6. Never watch a football game at home if you have a wife and kid. Ideally, never watch one, period.

7. Stage shows of 4 year-olds are so bad that nobody other than the parents can watch them.

8. Some men have extra-marital affairs.

9. Some women do too.

10. Parents find discussions of their kids' potty fascinating.

What I actually liked was the two lead actors. They are among the best we have. Ram Kapoor also adds comic relief to a comedy. Watchable, though with possible side-effects.
