The Supreme Court has a recipe for a successful marriage, more so for men: Obey your wife and rule the world!

"Bibi joh boltee hai woh sunno (Listen to whatever your wife says). We all listen," a vacation bench of Justice Markandeya Katju and Justice Deepak Verma observed while hearing a lawsuit by Indian Air Force officer Deepak Kumar, who had complained that his estranged wife Manisha had ruined him and his family by implicating them in false criminal cases including sodomy.

"Hum sab bhuktbhogi hai (We all have undergone that experience)," the bench observed.
