With bundle of talents including Salman Khan, Kareena Kapoor Khan, and Nawazuddin Siddiqui and last but not the least Harshaali Malhotra, the film have taught us the real lessons of life through this film. Here are the 5 lessons we need to learn from Salman Khan’s Bajrangi Bhaijaan!

Belief In God

We all are known with Salman Khan’s dialogue from the film, “ Hum Bajrangi Bali Ke Bhakt Hai , Mar Jayenge Par Jhooth Nahi Bolenge” Walking out in some other country without a passport and visa is surely not a piece of cake. But faith in God along with your honesty surely gets you to your path and destination one day. With this we get to learn that all you need to have is, faith in God and rest everything will fall in place as you know Salman says, “.Bajrangbali Hai na Woh Madad Karenge’

Love beyond the two Nations

Well, thinking apart from the controversies, the film surely teaches you that no caste, religion differs when it comes to humanity and love. The film surely connects two countries Pakistan and India passing a true message of being ONE. Pakistani Munni enters India as well as she prays Bajrangi bali God, while Salman Khan who enters Pakistan for a mission also visits Mosque for the prayers.

Action speaks louder than the words

The cute little Harshaali Malhotra who steals the entire thunder of the film in silence. The little girl proves that action is always stringer than what we speak. Being a speech impaired, little Harshaali has taught us big lesson that nothing is impossible, its all about emotions and love.

Humanity as a common man

Not even thinking about anything in such a fast running life, Salman Khan went on a mission to help a little girl Harshaali Malhotra who unfortunately landed up in India from Pakistan. The actor who has larger that the heart role in the film saves the little girl back to her homeland in Pakistan.

Be courageous

Despite of so many odds and oppositions, Salman Khan stood to his decision to set the little girl free to her parents in Pakistan and for that the actor crossed every borderline he had. In fact he also crossed India Pakistan border too

Correct body language

Make eye contact

Eye contact is the most obvious way you communicate. When you look at the other person, you show interest. When you fail to make eye contact , you give the impression that the other person is of no importance.

Your mouth 

Mouth movements , such as pursuing your lips or twisting them to one side , can indicate that you are thinking about what you are hearing or that you are holding something back.

Don't cross your arms 

How receptive you are is suggested by where you place your arms. Arms crossed or folded over your chest say that you have shut other people out and have no interest in them or what they are saying. This position can also say " I don't agree with you"

Smile

A smile send a positive message and is appropriate in all but a life and death situation. Smiling adds warmth and aura of confidence . Others will be more receptive if you remember to check your expression.

Position your head

Keeping your head straight will make you appear self assured and authoritative. People will take you seriously. Till your head to one side if you want to come across as friendly and open. An occasional nod of the head shows that you are attentive.

Your posture

Posture is always important. Sit or stand correct if you want to be seen as alert and enthusiastic. When you slump in your chair or lean against the wall , you look tired. 

Your hands 

Too much hand movement will distract the person from what you are saying. On the other hand , keeping your hands fixed at your side will make you look nervous and robotic. So what is the solution ? Use your hands to emphasise what you are speaking and not the other way round. Control your hands by paying attention to where they are. If you are elocuting on stage , keep your hands relaxed at your sides.While debating or delivering a speech, place your hands lightly on the lectern.

Your legs

Shuffling in one place or swaying is a sign of nervousness. While speaking , the ideal position is to keep your legs about a foot apart in line with your shoulders. Rest comfortably on the balls of your feet. While sitting , the ideal position is with the feet flat on the floor or cross at the ankles. It is considered lady like for a girl to keep her knees together. The most offensive position is resting one leg or ankle on top of your other knee. Some people call this the " Figure four". It is sign of arrogance and " I don't care".

Keep a distance 

Standing too close or in "someone's face" will mark you as pushy. Again , positioning yourself too far away will make you seem standoffish. You need to find a comfortable distance , ideally about an arms distance away. Most importantly , do what makes the other person feel comfortable. If the person with whom you are speaking keeps backing away from you, stop. Either that person needs space or you need a breath mint.

The idea is to dust yourself and get on your bicycle again. The most successful leaders know that  the key to success is not in avoiding falling or failing , but learning from their mistakes.

CONTINUE TO GROW

Great leaders continue to improve themselves in every possible way. The person who thinks he is an expert , has a lot more to learn. Never stop learning. Be receptive to everyone's perceptions and information from around the world and beyond.

You Can Be A Writer

The English language is a large intricate maze of lanes and by-lanes. Follow the rules correctly and you will find your way through easily.

THE OPENING

Your opening should be like a towering six off the first ball. You should open with a bang , intriguing the reader to continue.

STICK TO THE TOPIC

If you are talking about cricket,stick to cricket and don't deviate to football, unless you need to clarify something.

DO NOT USE BOMBASTIC WORDS

There are some of us who think that the bigger or more "bombastic" the words the better the sentence. Remember , no one wants to sit down to read your essay with a dictionary besides them.The use of new, different words to add color to  your piece, only if used effectively and where necessary.

KEEP THE SENTENCES SHORT

To keep your sentences "error ridden" free , the ideal solution is to keep your sentences short and simple.Stay away from long winded sentences. They will confuse the reader and will invariably be grammatically incorrect.

MIND YOUR GRAMMAR

Bad grammar is like ugly footwork. You might get a sneaky four here and there but you will never win the reader's heart.

USE CORRECT PUNCTUATION

Many of us nowadays have no clue as to when to use the comma and when to use the semi-colan. The dash has replaced the colon and a 'double exclamation mark adorns the end of most sentences. If you are not 'punctuation -strong' , remember by keeping your sentences short, you can bypass this problem.

USE OF ACTIVE AND PASSIVE VOICE

Through the active voice is preferred , most grammarians agree that the passive voice should be used when the receiver of the action is more important that the doer. e.g. " The city was devastated by a tsunami" rather than "A tsunami devastated the city".

USAGE OF ADJECTIVES AND ADVERBS

Adjectives and adverbs are the sixes and fours in your essay. They are what make what you write look all the more exciting and interesting. Use different adjectives to describe the same noun and different  adverbs to express the verb. Try it out as a daily exercise-it also makes an interesting game.

MEMORABLE ENDING

Like the opening , the ending too must be special and exciting. Like your favorite ice-cream , your essay too should leave lingering taste with the reader.

Be A Team Player

For a team to function well , everyone must contribute.All through life we live and work in teams. From "team family" to "team class" to "team school" to "team city" to "team India" to "team humanity" , every part of our lives is determined by what we do and how we perform in a team.

BE COMMITTED

As a good team player , you must always give your 100 percent for the team. You need not be the best at what you do , but you must be willing to commit yourself wholly to your work.

BE RELIABLE AND RESPONSIBLE 

Like Rahul Dravid , you must be dependable and someone that the rest of the team can rely on. You must be responsible for what you do.

BE WILLING TO SHARE 

This is very important. If you feel you have some extra inputs that you could give to your team , share it and don't keep it to yourself.

BE FRIENDLY

You will never be a good team player if you do not mix with the others and remain aloof. You are like one big family , so treat each other with respect.

ADAPT EASILY 

Sometimes circumstances could  be difficult. It is here that a good team player  quickly adapts to the situation.

LISTEN TO OTHERS 

Others may have a point of view that is different to yours. They may be right or they may be wrong, but as a team player you must be willing to hear every point of view and as a team decide which is the best.

ACTIVELY PARTICIPATE

Don't be in a team just for a free ride. Be actively involved in whatever the team discusses . decides and implements.

SET AN EXAMPLE 

Don't make it habit of pointing out faults of others. Instead , set an example and encourages others to work diligently.
