    Here's another one, almost as easy as the movie puzzle above.
    Clue: Born romantic, Bharat-Matrimony owes a debt to her.

    I would have said Jane Austen but I've never seen this picture before. JA had those bangs on her forehead and her hair was wavy!

    Good guess, but no cigar!
    The clue is a bit oblique ... didn't want to make it tooooo easy, considering the audience ... errrm .. cough, cough!

    Romantic era, buh buh buh, someone who started the first dating agency in Victorian times or the first advert for gentleman callers or more oblique?

    I need to fine-tune my search, too many dating agencies start with "Victoria".

    Or Romantic era poet produced some verse that is used as slogan for Bharat Matrimony — "For happy marriages"? How could India's No. 1 and most trusted site have such uncreative tagline (closing the pop-up 4th time urging me to register to experience - 'You could be next', am too tempted)

    Hmmm, a three word fishhook,
    One word is good bait!
    Will the fish bite?

    With appropriately portentous music and some chiaroscuro lighting, that could be a threat - add a deep baritone and you've got yourself a movie trailer! :rotfl
