What is this:
Whenever things go awry, you'll have to look-out for him/her/it, and he/she/it may help you.
HINT:
The first picture shows Dhanush, the singer of the viral youtube video song "Kolaveri Di". Dig deeper and you'll find the answer.

$\begingroup$ So is this basically a 4 Pics 1 word puzzle (like the mobile game, in which all the pictures relate to one word)??? $\endgroup$– DaedricCommented Mar 10, 2016 at 13:51

$\begingroup$ Nope. 4 pics 4 words which finally take you to the final solution. $\endgroup$– PrashantCommented Mar 10, 2016 at 15:54

The answer might be
Control-Alt-Delete
Explanation
Image 1:
THREE (The song "Kolaveri Di" is from a Tamil psychological thriller film called "3".)
Image 2:
FINGER (potato fingers)
Image 3:
SALUTE
Image 4:
KEYS (piano keys)
Conclusion:
1. According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-finger_salute, "Three-finger salute" is a jocular term for the three-key command Control-Alt-Delete.
2. Whenever things go awry with my PC, I reboot it by Control-Alt-Delete.
3. Control-Alt-Delete came up in the 1980s with the MS-DOS operating system.

1$\begingroup$ I found this puzzle quite difficult. Already yesterday I had the vague idea that this might be related to a computer keyboard ("since the 80s" plus piano "keys"), but only today I was able to make the right connections. $\endgroup$– GamowCommented Mar 11, 2016 at 11:19

4$\begingroup$ Interesting. I've never even heard of the phrase "potato fingers", before. Never would have guessed it. $\endgroup$ Commented Mar 11, 2016 at 13:59

$\begingroup$ @Khale_Kitha me either! but I get it now. $\endgroup$ Commented Mar 11, 2016 at 15:39

1$\begingroup$ Funny, I would have thought that "potato fingers" was a term that would apply to someone that requires a "dialing wand". $\endgroup$ Commented Mar 11, 2016 at 17:44

Three, from 3, the movie that "Why This Kolaveri Di" features in.
Second image could be...

Third may be...

$\begingroup$ You are on the right track.. The first word for the four letter clue is 'Three'. $\endgroup$– PrashantCommented Mar 10, 2016 at 17:15

1$\begingroup$ Perhaps this got something to do with: urbandictionary.com/… $\endgroup$– GamowCommented Mar 10, 2016 at 18:03

$\begingroup$ The third may also refer to Nazi or salute. $\endgroup$ Commented Mar 10, 2016 at 20:28

$\begingroup$ atleast two of the three remaining clues are already there in all the guesses combined, between @feelinferrety and the comments $\endgroup$– PrashantCommented Mar 11, 2016 at 3:08
