Funny / Polite Society

• The various Wire Fu scenes are deliberately made to look crappy and are just as intentionally completely over the top.
• Ria and Lena have a fight that completely destroys Ria's room. When we cut to their parents during the fight, they're completely indifferent, implying this isn't the first time something like that has happened.
• And then there are some of the exchanges they have during it:
  Ria: He says he loves you, and he doesn't even know you. [...] He thinks you're kind.
  [Lena kicks Ria through the door, destroying it and throwing her sister on the nearby wall]
  Lena: [angrily] I am kind!
• Ria doing a recreation of "Maar Dala" from Devdas during the wedding party. It comes out of nowhere and is so out of character for her, it's hard not to crack up.
• The film takes the entire comedic mileage out of Kicking Ass in All Her Finery, given most of the fight scenes involve women wearing traditional Indian dancing dresses. You know, the ones designed to float around during fast movement and spinning.
• The whole "Khan vs. Shah" fight scene, but especially the complex fighting stances taken by Raheela, clashing with her matrony looks and elaborate, hot pink wedding outfit.
  • Also, the exchange she has with Ria:
    Raheela: You think I want Lena's genes? Don't be daft. There's nothing in her genes but mediocrity.
    [they both take their fighting stances in dramatic fashion, then stand still for a while without doing anything]
    Ria: [in suddenly meek tone] Rude.
