What does Rochelle think about Mandana?

As we all know, Rochelle doesn't like Mandana.

But can we know this by her body language?


Of course...

When Mandana confronts Rochelle about what Rochelle thinks about Mandana and Keith, Rochelle tries to show surprise but what actually her expressions said, that she got nervous.

True surprise is shown with either jaw drop or eyebrows go up. Here we don't find it.



When Rochelle says She doesnt have any prob with Mandana and Keith, she literally goes back few steps, which in body language means backing out from what she just said.




Let us wait for some bigger hidden truth.

Stay tuned...

Whose bag to choose?

Friends, really sorry for being late.

So, we see that Bigg Boss 9 has already caught up and so many things going on .


Without wasting a single moment. Let us go to the second episode.


" Whose Bag to retain, whose to crush"


1. Lip Pursing

Lips Pursing ( Tightening of lips) Compressed or retracted lips most often occur when someone is forced to discuss something he doesn't want to talk about -- or when he/she is holding something back, well in this case, the sadness. 




2. True surprise
Jaw drop meaning true surprise.  Which says, that they were not at all prepared.


3. The concealed happiness
If you see Aman, he is secretively happy about his clothes.
We can see concealed smile.




4. More sadness









Only person who was happy about it was Prince, rojecting he was completely ready for all the tasks.

It's not always about sex!!

So, when people say, someone was flirting with them or they were flirting with someone, many of us feel "Oh my god! He is married or she is in a relationship! how can they do it?". But good news for the flirts , new researches in the same field reveal that Flirting is healthy.


 Dr. David Henningsen has identified 6 goal oriented reasons of why we flirt:

1. Relational Reason: When people want to move up a bit in their relationship, Stranger< Aquaintance< Friends< Good friends< Close Friends< Romantic Partner


2. Exploration : Just out of curiosity few people might want to flirt , to check if he likes it or she responds or how does he/she react

3.Fun: Have you ever seen a person, who flirts with almost every one. Looks and age doesn't even bother them at all. They do it for fun. 

4. Instrumental: You flirt because you want to get your work done, or get someone to buy your drink or even do your assignments. 

5. Esteem : Sometimes it becomes a matter of esteem . People flirt to boost their self esteem. Flirting or being flirted gives us high confidence boost up.

6. Sex: And of-course, we flirt to have sex. 

So,is it still OK to flirt? Many of us like to flirt on occasion with friends, co-workers or passing acquaintances. When you are in a committed relationship, though, flirting is more complicated. What constitutes acceptable flirting depends not only on your intentions, but also on how your significant other feels about it. (Hint: If you are keeping it secret, you are probably flirting with disaster.)
How can you tell if a person is flirting, or just being friendly? It isn't easy. The uncertainty is what makes it exciting.

10 ways to show respect through Body Language during a conversation

Richard Branson says," There's nothing as company culture, just treat your employee as you want to be treated."

One thing we all want is Respect. It's important for us to be respected, but how many of us actually give respect to others? Sometimes, unknowingly we tend to behave in a way that the person in front of us, doesn't feel respected. Here are 10 quick tips, to show respect in your behaviour during a conversation.

Things to do:

1. Ask Open ended questions

If someone is sharing something with you or even talking to you, you should ask open ended questions. If you ask open ended questions the person will feel that you are actually taking interest. Also, asking open ended questions will make the person more open up and if the person talks more, you both will succeed in making good rapport with each other.


2.. Smile

When you smile, you are welcoming. And when you are smiling during a conversation, it is very accommodating gesture for the other person. A nice and genuine smile will make the person feel comfortable and the person ends up opening more to you.

3. Nodding

To give someone respect, it is also recommended to nod during the conversation. Nodding will tell you that the person is actively listening to what you are saying. Don't bobblehead, meaning nod too much , which might symbolize you are in a hurry and are rushing the conversation.

4. Body Point

Have you ever noticed a person , when you are talking t them, only the head is on your side, the rest of the body isn't. Well, if you didn't, notice henceforth, and if you did, that means the person is not into the conversation at all. It is very important to have a total body point when a person is speaking to you, so that you would listen to him/her completely and also, the person would feel good. 

5.  Subjugating gestures

These are the gestures which are opposite to the dominating gestures. Where palm down is a dominating gesture , palm up is a subjugating one. If we show any authoritative gesture in a conversation the person who is speaking might feel lack of respect. Few dominating gestures are : Cowboy cross sitting, Hands behind head, Legs on chairs or table etc. 


THINGS TO AVOID

1.  Smirk


This is one look we are very familiarised with . So, now that we know, how does it feel to see on others face, let us avoid doing the same with others. The smirk or contempt is a sign we feel superior or others are inferior to us, So, better avoid this face in any conversation.

2. Using the phone


Using the phone during a conversation symbolizes absence of  respect. It is very simple, as if you are saying, I have better things on my phone than what you are speaking. So, even if it is a child you are speaking to just put the phone aside when you are listening to them. They would feel you are actually interested in what they are saying.


3. Shifty Eyes


If we are not interested in the person we tend to look here and there. On the opposite, if we maintain eye contact it means we are interested in the person. Some people are just habituated of having shifty eyes while talking, but you need to understand that an unknown person would not know your behaviour. So, avoid shifty eyes. 

4.  Fidgeting


Fidgeting is a big NO NO , when it comes to any conversation. If you are continuously shaking your legs, or tapping on the table, the person whom you are talking to will know you are not interested in the conversation. If you are really restless and can't help it, try flexing your toes inside the shoes, or stretching the fingers ( closing up the fist and opening it up).

5. Using manipulators


Manipulators should not be confused with fidgeting. Manipulators include gestures like adjusting collars or sleeves, scratching or wiping face, picking up imaginary lint from the dress etc. The more you use manipulators the less confident you look. 


And finally one thing to say, if it is your employee, a child, or even a stranger, paying respect to everyone will fetch us respect. 

Like they say, Give respect , get respect.

Smile naturally ! It's important.

Many of us don't think that smile has that much of importance in our daily life. But little do we know that Smile is an important factor for forming first impression.

Recently the Femina Miss India beauty pageant show was on a general entertainment channel. We will start with the first picture which was on Newspaper.

 Smile


Now , we have 21 beautiful contestants here. We are not debating if the picture is photo-shopped or not. But we will pay close attention to the smile.

Out of 21 girls, 13 chose to give sensuous look. Sensuous look is when a girl has her chin up a little bit, eyes a bit narrowed and lips opened...again a bit.

But few girls chose to smile here. Now let us look at their smiles.

Now no.3,13 contestant is smiling but if you look at the smile, the smile is not looking natural. Only lips are stretched .

No.7 is smiling too. Her eyes have narrowed compared to others, which gives an impression that it is a real smile.

No.9,10, fake smile again. When we smile, the smile should be stretched and eyes should be narrowed down.

No. 11 and 19, are showing teeth, which is supposed to be a good smile, but are miserably failing in that.

Last are No. 14 and 21, who are smiling, which is mostly looking like smirk. We don't want to smirk on people who are supposed be judging us.

So, next time, if you smile, in any competition, try smiling naturally, not for people, for yourself.

7 skills a good salesperson requires

1. First Impression

The process of forming first impression takes just few seconds. Some researchers say that it may take fractions of a second to form an impression. Therefore, how to present yourself the first time you are meeting with a client is really important. There are various things that you need to take care like, the expressions, the head movements, the gestures, postures, body point etc.

2. Elevator Pitch

The next skill to come into the list is the elevator pitch. The moment the sales person shakes hand ( which is also to be learned) with the client he/she should know what to say. Whether you should say your name, your company or about your product, the sequence matters. Therefore preparing an elevator pitch would really help . This way , a salesperson won't have to utter, look for words, or even use fillers in his/her speech.

3. Open Body Language

Open body language contributes a lot in any conversation. A better knowledge of open body language will let you make a good rapport with the client. There is no use of a good introduction if someone speaks with a terrible body language. Use of open body language is required while interacting with the prospective client. If the client is with closed body language during the discussion , you can also make your client open through following the body language techniques.

4. Mirroring

The concept of mirroring is used to form a bond and rapport building . Mirroring is copying each other's gestures and postures to symbolize, they are in the same page with the person they are talking to. People do it subconsciously for them, who they like. Some people mirror the voice, the pitch , the tone and even cadence. Salespersons are now learning mirroring to impress the client .

5. Micro Expressions

Micro Expressions are the emotional leakage which are involuntary when a person wants to hide the feelings and emotions. Micro Expression lasts for 1/10th to 1/25th of a second. Training on micro expression will not only improve the understanding of expressions, but also enhance the emotional intelligence. A person who understands other person's emotions is more likely to become successful as he/she can control the conversation.

6. Negotiation

Not everyone's cup of tea is Negotiation. Some are born with the skill, some learn it and some have to prepare hard for it. But now we have an opportunity to learn and enhance his/her negotiation skills. A good negotiation should always end up with the smile. Both parties should compromise but it should be a win-win situation for both. A good salesperson should understand that he/she  should stop when the body language of the client just starts to change and not to wait for disgust or anger or even sadness.

7. Respecting Space

In the world of non verbal communication, Space is referred as proximity. When there are two people talking , it is very important to respect each other's space. A salesperson should know when to lean into a conversation and when to back out, when to reach out to the client non verbally and when to allow the client. Knowledge of right use of proximity gives the person a big advantage during a conversation. Wrong use of proximity may land up problems for the salesperson .

The "Shoulder Squeeze" of US Vice-President Joe Biden

Another news was made by the US Vice-President Joe Biden recently. All social networking sites were flooded with various opinions on this behaviour. Let us analyse the incident and know the truth.

  1. Entering into the personal space


Here in this picture, we can see Joe offering a handshake. The thing to notice here is, Joe is entering into the personal space of the defence secretary. When someone enters our personal space, we feel a little bit awkward. Joe doesn't do it knowingly, he always gets real close to people, enters into the personal space thinking that he is friendly.

2. The Double Hander


And to tackle the awkwardness  the US defence secretary gives him a double hander. This kind of handshake is used to be perceived as a warm personality, or to avoid to be perceived as a subjugated personality.

3. More friendly


Joe now breaks eye contact with the defence secretary and points the total body towards the defence secretary's wife to greet her. Here we can see an active example of interest. Our body points where our interest lies, but as soon as he greets her, he quickly turns his body towards the dais. Joe wants to be very accommodating, so that no one feels "left alone". 

4. Concerned about image


On the other side, the defence secretary kisses his wife. but if you look at his hands,it's like he is pushing her away, glanced quickly towards Joe, as if the "kiss" was over.


He also gets his wife's caress on the right side,which he doesn't acknowledge. 

5. The shoulder squeeze


When Joe calls the defence secretary's wife,it looks like he is being friendly but as soon as he gets his hands completely on defence secretary's wife's shoulders, he can be seen with a chin up gesture which symbolizes pride. 

6. Whisper in the ear


We now see Joe whispering something in the ear of the Defence secretary's wife but whatever he said doesn't interest her as we see a delay in her response. Whenever there is a delay in response or there is very quick response,it rings a bell.

7. Authority


Of course, the defence secretary didn't like the over friendly gesture of the US Vice President. We know it, when he says thanks to his "perfect wife", he puts his hands on his wife's shoulder as if claiming her. This is an authoritative gesture symbolizing the person is more concerned about his people/things etc.

Why women like money and men like beauty?

We often hear that women are after money and men after beauty. Sometimes we think, it's a myth, sometimes we think, it's true. In this article, we will know, how the beauty and money are important from evolutionary perspective. What was the time then, how it has changed now.

Men & Beauty

The man has always wanted his species ( in this case, his genes) to survive. He has a tendency to compete in order to survive and then look for more and more ways to flourish his generation. When we think about a healthy woman, everything counts. Thick ,long, lustrous hair, clean and crisp nails, fuller cheeks and lips, internally and externally fit and flexible, blemish free and glowing skin; everything contributes to become a healthy woman, what we call "Beautiful". This woman compared to any other woman with problems is more likely to bear and therefore deliver a healthy offspring of the man. Therefore, a man runs after beauty to make sure his genes are present for a long period in the earth. Sounds, really funny but it's true. Since, we are very much learned and sophisticated now, the delivery of healthy offspring has taken a back-step and running after beauty is purely subconscious.

Women and Money

Before homo sapiens (now we are homo sapiens sapiens), during our hunters and gatherers phase, women started to remain inside to take care of off springs. At this point, the looks or the beauty of male was superseded by a new thing- food. The one who provides more food, was the one to mate,since he can get the woman and her offspring, food, which was very important to survive. The only thing woman cared about is food. That food is now replaced by money. Money, with which, a woman can buy food and every other thing is therefore more important for her over looks and beauty.

How much of this is true today?

Today, we have reached in a time, where women in larger numbers have started to work, therefore the idea of chasing beautiful woman and a wealthy man seems redundant. In fact,beauty has been ignored and the only thing important for survival is money. Given that, we are in a time, where almost every physical or mental problems can be solved through medical supplies, injections or even surgery, the flourishing of own species (genes) is not important. However, few sections of society where women are sill expected to be home, beauty is given a lot of importance .

So, if money is being given a lot of importance, that's because of Darwin's theory of evolution, "Survival of the fittest".

Stay tuned.

Do you calm yourself down?

A pacifying behaviour or a self-soothing behaviour is when you caress yourself to comfort yourself. When someone is under stress, the only way is to comfort oneself is to use a self soothing gesture. People also use this gesture when a negative emotion runs through their mind or they get bored or even to hide something . Everyone does it unknowingly.
One thing to mention here, it is touching oneself in a complete "Non-Sexual" way and yes, it is to be repeated, everyone does it. We'll see some examples as to notice how do we do it? There are more than 25 gestures that come under pacifying behaviour but we will cover only 5 here, that too only face.

1.  Rubbing the Forehead


This is a self soothing or pacifying gesture, which is used usually to save oneself from embarrassment. You will see this gesture, when someone is feeling shameful about the "mentioned" topic. This was when Aamir Khan was asked by Rajat Sharma, in Aap ki Adalat, about his blog, where Aamir had written about his dog "Shahrukh",. 

2. Lip Movement


This one is seen, when someone is associated with a thought mostly negative. At stress, we want something to comfort us, and if we are not in a position to self-soothe, this is how we use it. As you can see, in the picture, she is asked by the host , if she thinks she has the talent to be successful in movies, in Sach ka Saamna. 

3. Scratching Face


Scratching face is a common gesture when a person wants to dodge a question or pretends that he/she is thinking over the question,which in reality, it has raised the stress level. This happened when Aamir and Katrina went for the promotions of Dhoom 3 and somebody asked Aamir, if he wants Salman to be married and the same question was shifted to Katrina.

4. Nose rubbing


 This is the most common gesture used, specially by males, when they are trying to hide something or are at stress. This gesture doesn't mean someone is lying, but it definitely means, being uncomfortable. When the reporter asked Virat in an interview, if he has a girlfriend, Virat says he is single and then he uses this gesture.

5. Cover the face/ Wipe the face


When someone wipes the face with one's hand with no intention of wiping the sweat, the gesture means the person is getting bored. This gesture is just one of the gestures to make one self ready to go. We see Abhishek doing this, because he is at some Gym launch with his mother, Jaya Bachchan and the journalists are talking to Jaya, not him. He gets bored and now wants to go. 

These were just for starters to make you understand, how we use pacifiers. It's not necessary we use it when we are lying. It may be one of the reasons, but there are several others. The other important thing to pay attention is the base-lining. You need to baseline the person and his/her normal behaviour when he/she is under no stress or during a normal condition. 

So next time , you notice someone self -soothing, ask them Is something wrong?

5 types of guys you would find in a discotheque/club

So, after seeing the 5 types of girls you would find in a discotheque, now we have come up with the counterpart, the 5 types of guys.
We would also, take a moment to thank you, for the huge appreciation.
Moving on. As told, in a discotheque, you would come across various personalities some hot, some cool and some not so cool. We have boiled it down to the typical types, which are 5 in number.
Let us have a look at those guys:

1.The Pseudo Alpha

This guy thinks that he is very cool and also the leader of the group, but only, he thinks that. He also wants his circle/group to follow them wherever he is pointing and also follow the dance steps, but again a failure. So, we have named this type " Pseudo Alpha" means "Fake leader" or "Pretentious Leader". You can find him generally in the group of 4 or more than that.

2.   The Trial &  Error


This is our guy who is a firm believer of Trial & Error. He takes a chance on everything in the club. Let's start with taking items inside the club. He tries to take banned items inside, if he is caught, he says sorry , as if he didn't know that it was banned. If it is a smoke free zone, he lights up the cigarette, if stopped by the guard , he will again say sorry. He will then go and sit in the reserved area, which is of course, not reserved by him, if denied, he will again say sorry. So, that's how this guy is. He takes a chance at doing everything in the club which is restricted, but he does it . This type is "Trial & Error" guy.


3. The Bodyguard


No, Not Salman Khan. This guy is overly protective towards his girl. He dances with his hands wrapped around his girl, to prevent others from touching her. He finds out the "secure" place in the club for his girl, where they could dance "safely". God forbid, if someone accidentally pushes his girl, he will be all charged up to take up a fight. He will be in the mood like " Touch her, and you will get it on your face!" . So, we have named this type, "The Bodyguard".


4. The Not so interested Guy


You might have got the idea of this type by the picture here. This guy, no matter how "hot" girl he is with, will always be interested in others. He dances with his girl with a cuddle and will have a look at every other girl in the club. This guy also tries to impress others with his dance moves. He never concentrates on the girl he is with. Don't be this guy. Girls hate this type a lot. You can impress other girls by treating your girl in the nicest manner. Therefore, this type, "Not so interested guy".

5. The Ogler


If you are a girl, you will be very familiar with this look. In the club, sometimes, stags are given a corner to sit and are not allowed to dance on the floor. In that corner, you'll find him. It's like, he comes to the club for ogling. You can also find him , with his glass half filled, standing and enjoying music ( at least pretending). But the main focus is on the floor , on the girls, especially the girls group. The name of this type is "The Ogler".

So, dear friends, whenever you visit a club , watch for these types and enjoy.

Stay tuned.

5 types of girls you would find in a Discotheque/Club

I like to party and have been to several Discotheques and Clubs. This was the first time I thought of going there few times to study the human behaviour and the categorization. So, here I found typically 5 types of girls, you would definitely find in these places.

1. No pain No gain
First kind will be of high heel girls, who you would probably pity on. Her favourite typically will be cocktail. They are so uncomfortable in their high heels, that they can barely walk, forget dancing. They wear high heels just for the fashion, because it looks "sexy". 

"High heels may exaggerate the sex-specific aspects of the female walk " a University of Portsmouth research team led by psychologist Paul Morris reports in journal of Evolution and Human behaviour. Still this type will no way look sexy in the uncomfortable walk of hers.

What to do if you know her?

You tell her, to remove the shoes, as nobody is noticing any more and the party is in full swing. If you make her understand that enjoyment is more important than being uncomfortable, she will be feeling happy at the end. Give her few examples from movies that the girl removed the shoes to dance or she removes it during the party etc. and you understand it's not easy to carry heels at all.

2. Forced

The other type you would be seeing is the girl who is very quiet in the club as if she was forced to come. Ordering a vodka with soft drinks and sitting will be her first choice. Neither you see any excitement in her nor the clothes she wears will tell you she was in a mood to come. If at all people in her group tell her to dance, she remains seated with a masked smile. Being shy is very different from being quiet. If she is shy, she will take time to open up but if she is quiet because something went wrong in her personal/professional life, you can take care of that.

What to do if you know her?
Tell her, to smile. Yes, it might appear simple, but it will help. According to a research , if we smile , we start feeling happy,even if that smile is faked. The only condition is the smile should last at least 10 seconds. If you manage to make her smile, you will make her happy too. 

3. Slang bang


The other typical type of girl you will find is the slang-bang cool girl. This girl in a normal routine will be seen as a simple, girl next door type but when she enters a club she will have beer and a cigarette ( if that's allowed inside), if not, you can see her outside, smoking and using slang on a louder note, pretends to be very cool. 

What to do if you know her?
Tell her, to go inside, that way her noise is reduced with the high music. Other way is to tell her you have seen her relative or a close family friend in the same club, it will make her quiet because she does it on purpose to seek attention and she would not want her family to know her "other side". 

4. Love shower


The next typical to feature in the list is Miss.Love Shower. She typically orders tequila shots and then gets very cosy with her boyfriend/husband/other's boyfriend etc. She is seen so much in love that she feels that she would shower all her love , right then and there itself. She is least bothered on what's going on with others in the group because she is too busy in hugging and cuddling her partner. 

What to do if you know her?
Make her sit and make sure she doesn't fall over you again and again, because this behaviour is often followed by vomiting. Tell her some random stories, and be prepared to be interrupted with her side of story as well. 

5. Tried before??


The last girl is Miss. Wardrobe malfunction. She will be the girl to order most likely a juice or mocktail. Her dress is seen as too tight or too loose, as if she has borrowed it from someone. Either way, she looks odd in the attire. So, you can see her adjusting her clothes during the entire party instead of enjoying, it may be the dress falling off shoulder, or a dress too short, or adjusting the dress to hide the cleavage. 

What to do if you know her?
Offer her a temporary solution, like camouflaging using a hair-band, hair clip, handkerchief, tissue paper etc. If you see her really uncomfortable with a problem which can't be sorted, drop her home with a smile and a nice sentence, that you enjoyed with her company, and will do a lot more in the next time. That way , she would want to go out one more time with a nice dress ( hopefully, tried this time).

Partying and drinking is not bad at all, but a balance is required everywhere. Next time you go, look for these types and enjoy. And if you are one of these, even then, focus on enjoying.  I'll be posting same article on guys as well. 

Stay tuned for more.

What's real ? What's fake?

First of all, wishing all of you a very happy and prosperous new year. May this year gives you insight to know the unknown.

After so may days, we have something interesting in Bigg Boss 8. In the luxury budget task" Freeze", we caught some expressions which were true from the heart and some which were faked to their best.

1. Puneet


When he sees his wife, he immediately calls her name with surprise. In surprise, we typically see eyebrows going up and and open mouth. We can also see surprise in Ali's face.

2. Karishma


Karishma was unsure when Puneet's wife came to her. But when she says she wants to hug Karishma, Karishma closes her eyes with a smile, which symbolizes the acceptance of hug. Also, she gets emotional during the hug, which she quickly controls.

3. Diandra enters


Pritam is surprised seeing Diandra here, but if we see Gautam, surprise is missing.


In the next moment we see, Pritam's surprise is still continued , now with a smile. Whereas, Gautam is flashing a micro expression of fear here, which is being masked by a smile. Now, why is he scared of Diandra, that we don't know.

4. Diandra- Karishma


When Diandra says Karishma, about the confession room talk ( Whom to save) . Karishma gives an expression of surprise, to convince Diandra that she hasn't done anything. Anyway, we know, the truth, that Karishma did say she wanted to save herself, But here, we are looking at the body language and micro expression. If Karishma is truly surprised, the eyebrows would have gone up, even a little bit , which is being faked here,


When Diandra says Karishma, she is coming across like Selfish and self-centred in the show, we catch a quick curling of lips,that too one sided. This one sided smile here is a micro expression of Contempt, which is implying she is happy to hear that.

5. Diandra- Gautam


When Gautam is "released" by Bigg Boss after the "freeze", we don't see any excitement in any of his actions, signifying he is not happy to see Diandra. He also closes his eyes and puts his hands on the face,covering face means not wanting to see whatever is happening. The other thing to notice here is Diandra's feet. The legs are pointing towards Gautam. And immediately after the "freeze" , she moves towards Gautam. She definitely likes Gautam too much.


We see in the picture Diandra , moving ahead of Gautam, and also touching the neck area. Actually, the area she is touching is known as Suprasternal Notch, the area below the neck where the collar bones meet. It is a self soothing gesture, to comfort oneself during nervousness. So, we know that Diandra is also nervous but in a happy way, to meet Gautam.


If we see here, we can see Diandra and Gautam sitting in a coffee table, but if we look closely, Diandra is very comfortable in her seat, whereas Gautam looks really uncomfortable. Another thing to notice here, is how Gautam is pushing himself back, as if he has been sticked to the back of the chair. This way of sitting of Gautam tells us, he doesn't want to be associated with Diandra at all.


A moment later, Gautam is smiling here with Diandra, but look at the hands, which are down and crossed in front of the vital parts , this is again a symbol of nervousness and being uncomfortable. If you look at the legs , they are also pulled back and are not in rest, symbolizing, Gautam wants to get up and doesn't want to be seated there any more. On the other side ,look at Diandra. Her hands are on the table, which shows honesty. Legs are at rest and pointing towards Gautam, meaning, she is wants this date to go on and doesn't want to go back. The body is leaning forward suggesting she is interested in the conversation.


When a person is telling the truth , it is very hard to control the emotions. Here, when Diandra says, whatever happened between them ,was never a part of game, she cries. This sadness (of the idea of using that for the game) is real, because we see oblique eyebrows here. And by baselining Diandra, we know, whenever she gets emotional she becomes very active physically, she moves her hands a lot, shifts her places etc, which also happens here. Diandra is really sad here.

6. Gautam


Now, this is the real surprise expression which we see in Gautam's face, which was missing when Diandra entered the Bigg Boss house. Gautam is surprised here, by seeing his brother Mohit Gulati.


The Bigg Boss 8 is a very nice show to know and read the house-mates Non verbal communications. 

We will be posting blogs on other issues, and if you want to know or decode any special case, do let us know.

Stay tuned.
