Rules for making INDIAN Movies

-----------------------------------------------



             1. If the number of heroes is not equal to the

number of heroines, 

             the excess heroes/heroines will 

             - die 

             - join the Red Cross and take off to

Switzerland before the end of the movie. 



             2. If there are 2 heroes in a movie, they will

fight each other savegely for at least 5 minutes (10 if they 

are brothers). 



             3. Any court scene will have the dialogue

"Objection milord". If it is said by the hero, or his lawyer, 

it will be sustained. Else, it will be overruled. 



             4. The hero's sister will usually marry the

hero's best friend (i.e. the second hero). Else, she will be raped by

the villain within the 1st 30 minutes, and commit suicide. 



             5. In a chase, the hero will always overtake the

villain, even on a bullock-cart, or on foot. 



             6. When the hero fires at the villain(s), he will

never 

             - miss 

             - run out of bullets. 

             When the villain fires at the hero, he will

always miss (unless the hero is required to die, as in rule). 



             7. Any fight sequence shall take place in the

vicinity of a stack of 

             - pots 

             - barrels 

             - glass bottles, which will be smashed to

pieces. 



             8. Any movie involving lost+found brothers will

have a song sung by 

             - the brothers 

             - their blind mother (but of course, she has to

be blind in order to regain her sight in theclimax) 

             - the family dog/cat. 

             The amazing thing is that these folks

remember the song after 20 years in the movie, and you can't

remember it 2 minutes after coming out of the theatre. 



             9. Police inspectors (when not played by the

hero) come in three categories: 

             - Scrupulously honest, probably the hero's

father - killed by the villain before the titles. 

             - Honest, but always chasing the anti-hero (as

in rule), saying "Tum kanoon se bach nahin sakte",

only to pat him in the back in reel 23. Usually, this inspector's

daughter is in love with the anti-hero. 

             - The corrupt inspector, (usually the real

villain's sidekick) unceremoniously knocked about by the

hero(s) in the climax.
