How about you too win prizes for telling me about your favorite films? Awesomeness, right!?
So, here's how you go about it -
Write a post on your blog about your favorite films. Difficult to name just one? No worries, you can write about more. Want to make it fun for yourself? You can select a theme, time period, region or just do a 100% all-time favorites pick.
The films you choose don't matter at all. The winners will be people who convince us to watch their favorites. So, what you like about the films you've picked will count. More importantly, we have to understand why you liked the film.
The entries don't have to be too long. In fact, the shorter the better. The usual rules of grammar and spelling will apply. Oh and yeah, a little humor won't hurt.
Last but not at all the least, your post has to mention that it is for the Reel-Life Bloggers contest organized by wogma and reviewgang (our partner for this contest) with appropriate links. Of course, the entry will be invalid if this last tiny thing is missing.
Here's what you win -
- Flipkart/Amazon coupon worth Rs. 3000
- Flipkart/Amazon coupon worth Rs. 2000
- Five Flipkart/Amazon coupons worth Rs. 1000
- A t-shirt a day from September 1 to 10. This is an early-bird prize for the first valid post we receive on the day.
Here go the rules again -
- Write a single blog post about your favorite films - one, three, five - you pick.
- We won't judge you on the choice of films, but on the quality of your post.
- Entry will be valid only if it mentions that it is a submission for the Reel-life Bloggers contest and links to wogma and reviewgang.
- You can submit a post you've written earlier. Just remember put in the links mentioned above.
- You can submit more than one entries.
- Email us at [email protected] with a link to the blog post to submit your entry.
- Our decision is, of course, final.
- The contest ends on
October 13thOctober 31st (deadline extended). Midnight IST. - The early-bird t-shirt winner will be announced on three days later.
- The first 7 Winners will be announced on November 14th.
- Winners will be announced on facebook, twitter and this contest page.

@SAnkha the contest is still very much on, I don't know how I missed your comment. We extended the date till Oct 31st.

Hi...
I had sent you an email asking about the possibility of an entry after the deadline.
Hey,
Have the prize winners been announced? Was wanting who won the big one.... Would love to post a link to the winner's blog on my site, with permission, of course :)
Was wanting to know.... is what I wanted to say. Thinking faster than my hands can type.
@Abhilash I'm sorry, We stopped taking entries on November 1st.
