We cannot expect that life to be always a bed of roses. Sometimes, it would be happy and sometimes it would be troublesome.

Because, your family will always help you go through your Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham moments.
#7. Learn to trust your partner

Trust is the foundation of a relationship. You cannot have a successful relationship if you act paranoid all the time. You have to trust your partner and see how things turn out to be. If you turn out to be an over possessive lover, you might end up losing them, just like Gopal in Hum Tumhare hai Sanam.
#8. Rash decisions can ruin lives

Decisions made in anger and haste will burn you and your loved ones. You should not be impulsive while making life altering decisions, as they might change your life permanently, sometimes not for good.

Your decisions affect others too so, do not rush them. In simple words, do not be a Devdas.

Life is short, so we should live it in the best possible way, every single day. Live, laugh and love every day as each day is important. Live like it is your last day, after all, Kal Ho Na Ho, right?
#10. Love is crazy

Yes, love is crazy. You lose all control over yourself. And yes, you can burst into a song whether you want to or not.

Just like Major Ram, of Main Hoon Na, you can actually listen to the violins playing in the background. Crazy, stupid, filmy love does exist!

#11. Love knows no boundaries

Love knows no boundaries. People can be divided over borders, but the heart does not follow that concept. Just as Squadron Leader Veer Pratap Singh from India can fall for Zaara Hayat Khan from Pakistan, remember?

Race, religion, nationality cannot stop a heart from beating for its companion.
#12. Extraordinary love story in every ordinary jodi

This was the motto of Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi. God has put together you and your loved one together for a reason. And, if he has done it, then definitely there is some magic involved.

#13. Infidelity is not an answer

Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna did not preach about infidelity, it was a critique of it. If you are not happy in your marriage, you can walk out of it. However, adultery is not a solution. Marriage is like a partnership where both the partners should be true and loyal to each other.

Sometimes, marriages just do not work, but having an extra-marital relationship is still not justified.
#14. Love is above any superstition

Jab Tak Hai Jaan gave us a deep insight into the world of superstitions and beliefs that can actually keep two lovers apart. But if your love is real, then it will one day reunite you with your estranged lover despite any circumstances.
