You know an Indian movie when you see one .....


There are only two classes in society, either very rich or very poor. There is no middle class.

All cities are located near a mountain or at least a hill to facilitate chasing of cars on dangerous tracks.

All heroes have training in martial arts and driving all kinds of vehicles (including horses).

To make hero's task easier, villain’s henchmen generally approach him one by one.

All fights tend to shift towards a place which is stacked with empty drums.

If hero is being chased by villain(s) on foot, a bridge should be very near to the place with either a deep river underneath a railway line (with a train moving on it).

Empty wine bottles are always within a hand's reach to be broken and used for assault by the villain, although no known hero has ever got hit by such a bottle.

Towards the end of a fight when the hero has almost over-powered the main villain, the sub-villain always finds the heroine or hero's mother handy to hold her at gunpoint.

Children and animals are generally found to be useful in such situations.

Bullet ridden people always live for awhile, at least, to reveal incomplete identity of their murderer.


If one car is chasing the other, one of them will definitely bumped into a hand-cart containing fruits, generally watermelons.

The hero cannot fall in love with the heroine (vice versa) unless they first perform a dance number in the rain.

If you decide to start dancing in a field, everyone you bump into will know all the steps, and will be wearing coordinated outfits.

A heroine will have time to change outfits several times in one song, however short.

A man will show no pain while taking the most ferocious beating but will wince when a woman tries to cleanse his wounds.

If a large pane of glass is visible, someone will be thrown through it before long.

Village girls who live among cows and sheep have perfect skin and are always beautiful.

Once applied, make up is permanent, in rain or in any other situation.

It does not matter if you are heavily outnumbered in a fight involving martial arts - your enemies will wait patiently to attack you one by one by dancing around in a threatening manner until you have knocked out their predecessors.

A large group of villains can be shooting at the hero.

He will never be hit, unless of course he is attempting to save the heroine.

A large group of villains can be shooting at the hero with machine guns, yet they will always miss. Every shot the hero takes from his small revolver will knock down at least ten opponents in a line.

As a rule of thumb, the hero has either his mother or father alive (or none of them - never both).

Young hero with old Amma as his mother is not actually her son but is the abandoned son of someone else or a wealthy person.

If two heroes are brothers, one is bound to be a criminal and the other a lawyer or police inspector. Generally the younger one stands a better chance of becoming an educated fellow because the elder one has entered the world of crime to provide for his school/college fees.

If a boy and girl are shown to meet in childhood, they meet again only after 12 years (mind you only one of them remembers).

If heroine's parents are going for an arranged marriage, the boy selected, in 90% cases, is the villain.

All honest factory owners have corrupt managers.

All building contractors are lusty and have an eye for the heroine or hero's mother.

If a hero is following heroine whose train has just left platform, by every chance, the heroine is standing behind him with her luggage.

Last but not least, despite the initial setbacks, the ugliest of the guys will get the most gorgeous of girls.
