* [[Evil Is Cool]]: Completely subverted.
* [[Falling in Love Montage]]: Jashn-E-Bahaara. This is interrupted by...
Line 33:
* [[Large Ham]]: Many. The worst offender is probably Shariffudin.

* [[Opening Monologue]]: With special appearance by [[Amitabh Bachchan]]

Line 47:
* [[True Love Is Exceptional]]
* [[Through His Stomach]]: And the scene in question, which lingers lovingly over plates and plates of Rajasthani food, will make you want to die if you hadn't eaten a lot beforehand.
* [[What Is This Thing You Call Love?]]: Almost word from word from Jodhaa and Akbar at different points.
* [[The Woobie]]: Akbar
