You’ve heard of IQ (Intelligence Quotient) and EQ (Emotional Quotient), well now lets check what’s your FQ or Filmy Quotient. FQ is defined as the extent that the world or films or ‘filmy dunia‘ has made an impact on your real life. By impact we mean, an effect on the psyche, perceptions, dreams and even expectations. To know your FQ you simply need to go through the list given below and honestly answer whether these points are true or false for you.
You see a train moving away slowly,

And subconsciously, you imagine your Prince Charming peeping out to give you a hand. You do feel special then.
Your best friend scores brownie points at work

And you be like “Aaj khush to bahot hoge tum. Haiin”
Another one: Your best friend comes top of the class

You: “Human behaviour ke baare me uss din humne kuch jaana, Dost fail ho jaye toh dukh hota hai, lekin dost first aa jaye toh zyada dukh hota hai.”
You see someone going on a vacation

Image Source
You be like “Jaa Simran jaa, jee le apni zindagi.”
You dream of airport sequences way too much

Last minute realization and that chase across the city, to finally stop that special someone from leaving, and expressing your love. Well, there certainly are easier ways, but then how is that interesting?
Your pregnancy related dreams are never pukey or nauseous

Instead you see a healthy round ball like you/your better half, rosier and pinkier, and always happy. Quite dangerous, as that is mostly never the case.
Your meeting with that special someone

Slow winds blowing your hair, stolen glances, and your favourite song playing in the background. That is your dream.
Rains, rains, and rains…you just love them

Somehow, rains are never messy for you, and are forever romantic. Getting drenched is never shoddy or messy, and if you are a girl, even your makeup never runs.
You daydream a lot

Image Source
And that makes you super happy because you are never bored. You just slip out of boredom into a land of your own filmy dreams.
Special mention: If you are a Harry Potter movie/book fan

95% of your vocab is full of magical words that is way beyond the understanding of a “muggle”, and that is perfectly normal for you.
If you have said yes to even four of these then you have a very high FQ. What are the filmy things that you have done? Tell us in the comments below.
