History Animation / RoadsideRomeo

* IncrediblyLamePun: Charlie Anna keeps three female dogs as his personal enforcers. Their name? [[Series/CharliesAngels The Angels.]]

* ToiletHumour: All over the place. Pooping birds, burping rodents, Chhainu spitting, Chhainu spitting, Chhainu spitting ''again'', Charlie [[{{Gasshole}} farting]], Charlie [[{{Squick}} eating his own ear wax...]], Charlie [[NauseaFuel plasting a mucus in a paper and giving it to Romeo as an autograph]]... This trope was taken literally when Chhainu actually fell into a broken down toilet he was sleeping on.

* BilingualBonus: More like Bilingual Requirement. India has two national languages: Hindi and English. Most of the movie's dialog is in the former, though a fairly large chunk is in the latter, so you have to be bilingual to understand the whole thing. Though the film is still somewhat accessible even if you only speak one of the languages. Somewhat.
** The use of English can be possibly called SurprisinglyGoodForeignLanguage. Romeo speaks the most English out of anyone in the cast ([[FridgeBrilliance justified since he did have wealthy owners]]) and it's so flawless that English viewers can get the gist of what's going on. When the other characters drop the occasional English, they speak it flawlessly as well.

The film centers around a pampered dog named Romeo who, after being abandoned by his owners, is forced to live out in the streets of Mumbai. Romeo is cornered by a street gang and almost beaten up by the crew, but manages to convince them to open a dog grooming business after he lulls them by giving them all new haircuts. Everything's going great until Chhainu, the right-hand dog of a disgusting mobster named Charlie Anna, comes by to collect the business's protection money (in the form of bones). When Romeo kicks him out and refuses to pay, his friends fear retribution, and head over to [[ProfessionalButtKisser kiss his ass]] so Anna doesn't kill all of them. From there on out, the film is about Romeo and his friends trying to escape the clutches of Anna, while Romeo simultaneously tries to woo a dog named Laila, whom he met while dancing on the rooftops, and who he's fallen in love with.

* ACatInAGangOfDogs: Mini, the only cat of the group.

* BigBad: Charlie Anna. The dog catchers too, despite only making two appearances in the whole movie.

* ToiletHumour: All over the place. Pooping birds, burping rodents, Chhainu spitting, Chhainu spitting, Chhainu spitting ''again'', Charlie [[{{Squick}} eating his own ear wax...]] This trope was taken literally when Chhainu actually fell into a broken down toilet he was sleeping on.

* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w5Psfpex2EY teaser trailer of Laila's audition]] makes one wonder if the movie was trying to reach a [[UsefulNotes/FurryFandom certain other demographic.]]
-->'''Director''':So what can you do?
-->'''Laila''': [[DoubleEntendre Everything.]]
** Some of the dance moves can also be this. ''Especially'' during "Chhoo Le Nah."
** At one point the mouse does Music/MichaelJackson's signature moonwalk and pelvic thrust. Complete with crotch grab.

* BowtiesAreCool: Hero English certainly thinks so.

* NotSoAboveItAll: The Angles, twice. Once during "Cool Cool" where they eventually start to dance along, and again at the end when [[spoiler: they're inexplicably swooned by Guru, Interval, and Hero English.]]

* ImportantHaircut: When Romeo runs into Guru's gang, they're a band of [[{{Badass}} badasses]] who have no trouble mugging and killing Romeo for invading their territory. Then he gives them all a haircut. For the rest of the film, they're Romeo's friends and complete cowards whenever they run into Chhainu or Charlie.

* {{Badass}}: The Angels.

* AllStarCast: Though the names may not be familiar to American audiences, the cast features some of the top actors in Bollywood.

* AccessoryWearingCartoonAnimal: The entire cast.
