hahah Nice one Newton.

Some more to add:

The 2 heros (brothers) are separated at a mela and when they grow up, they find that they are brothers right before the climax when they're fighting and one gets his sleeves torn off and lo and behold, its a trishul tattoo.  The hero who was mercilessly beating his brother now stops and in a violin music filled backgroud reveals his own tattoo.  Both brothers hug and now turn towards the villian screaming, "Kaminay..."

When raping his victim, the villian always tears the sleeves off the heroine/hero's sister's choli or salwar leaving red streaks on her arms (supposed to be the villain's clawings).  The rape scene: He forces himself on top of her and fully clothed he showers closed lip kisses on her cheek/forehead and as the struggle continues, the scene metaphorically moves to a struggle between a python and a chicken where the chicken is ultimately consumed by the python.

However, when the hero and heroine do it, they show the rolling around and the back of the guy/girls head and then the camera spans towards the tangling of the feet and then the sun rises the next morning with a sitar strum in the background.

When a hero/hero's friend gets shot, he vigorously fights till the end which is often a tear-jerker...Atleast 5 bullets are needed to take him down.  But when any of the villian's cronies are shot a single bullet, they give one loud scream/squeal to their death.

Finally, green lush grasslands and atleast 5 changes in clothing is required for every song.  And if the hero plays a guitar, his hands with all fingers glued together move back and forth the guitar neck (as if to signify that its being played in tune along with the song).
