I loved the phrase, instantly. Being gutsy is not everyone’s cup of tea, but these veeres did it. Well, this is a film about four girls taking simple decisions that don’t adhere to societal norms.
They did one thing.. they made themselves happy, only after having tried hard to keep the ones around them happy. Well, the movie apart, isn’t life all about being happy? And believe me, it takes guts to be happy.
No Guts, No Glory is like No pain No gain, similar yet different. Courage is the little sister of guts where everyone encourages you to tread the well-known path. Being gutsy is more than taking the road less traveled as mentioned by Robert Frost in The Road not taken. Don’t you admire the woman who slapped the street harasser? Of course you do! But you don’t have the guts to do it. Why? Introspect and find out. Write down the reasons and overcome them one by one. Because if don’t do what you want to do, you will do everything for everyone. That brings no glory.
Small acts define you and make you gutsy. Learning a new dish is courage but trying it out for the first time is gutsy. Learning to drive a car is courageous but going to an unknown destination on a rainy day in an emergency takes guts. Standing up for yourself on a tired evening and not going to that party is arrogance to some, but gutsy for me.
I agree the trend is changing but we still have a long way to go. The movie Pink differed and made its mark, now comes along this movie glorifying womanhood in a novel fashion. Listen to your gut feeling and change yourself, everything around you will change.

'Sania denied fairy-tale ending: suffers loss in AUS open final' says a news headline. Is this the best we can do? Is it a fitting tribute to one of the finest athletes we have in our country?
Sania Mirza bid an emotional and tearful farewell to her Grand Slam journey as a runner up in the mixed doubles final. Headlines read –

“Sania denied fairy-tale ending: suffers loss in AUS open final”
Yuvaraj Shele, a small-time worker from Kolhapur, Maharashtra, did battle many odds and arranged for his mother Ratna’s wedding a few weeks ago. The main point that he put forth was that he felt his mother was lonely and saw the need for her to live happily.
A myth that goes without saying is that only a woman can understand another woman better. What happens when a man does understand what a woman goes through? Especially when the woman is his mother, that too when she is a widow?
This scene does remind of a few movies/web series where the daughter/son do realize their mother’s emotions and towards the end, they approve of their new relationship.
