Added DiffLines:

* DanceOff: He challenges Ram and Bheem during the big "Naatu Naatu" dance number, and is the last Englishman standing.
* SmugSuper: He's actually a damn good dancer - amazing, even, but not ''quite'' as good as Ram and Bheem. That said, his jackass attitude and sense of superiority takes away what few points he would've gained from this.

Added DiffLines:

* HiddenDepths: While he never speaks it, it's heavily implied he fully understands Telugu as he can easily carry a conversation with Ram even as the latter chooses to speak his native language from time to time. He's also much, much more perceptive than he appears to be, and quickly twigs to the fact that something is not right [[spoiler:after shaking Ram's hand and noticing the gun grease on his palm.]]

Added DiffLines:

* CharacterTic: Whenever he's at a loss for words, can't understand when someone is speaking English, [[EndearinglyDorky or all of the above whenever he's with Jenny]], he does a little wobble with his head.


Added DiffLines:

* EndearinglyDorky: Unlike Ram, he is not what you'd call a ladies' man, to put it mildly. Even ''if'' he understood English and didn't need Ram to translate for him, he'd still be just as smitten and tongue-tied whenever he's with Jenny.


Added DiffLines:

* NiceGuy: He is so painfully sweet and good-natured that anyone who interacts with him for more than a few minutes picks up this pretty quickly. [[spoiler:It even becomes a critical plot-point in that Ram is unable to fully commit to his betrayal, and begins to value his friendship with Bheem above his mission. If fate hadn't thrown them a bone, and Bheem never met Sita, it's likely those guns never would've made it to Ram's village.]]


Added DiffLines:

* EarthyBarefootCharacter: Just like Bheem and the rest of her people, she is a forest-dweller who is close to nature. Even after she's captured and given fine English dresses and shoes to wear, [[PrefersGoingBarefoot the shoes are off when there are no Englishmen in sight.]] After she is freed, she never once puts them back on.
