It isn't downplayef, it's misused. Five Man Band is about The Team of exactly five characters with five exact role. Since it isn't clear if they actually work together or not, I've no idea if they can be counted as The Team or not either. Also comment out a pair of ZCE.

Bajrangi, Beggum, and Alex all fit almost every other position for a standanrd FiveManBand, and even Bagga and Yuvi have their [[TheSmartGuy smart moments]].

* CharacterDevelopment: All five main characters manage to grow throughout the trip to Delhi in various different ways.



* EstablishingCharacterMoment:
** The hot-headed Bajrangi is first seen calling all the other animals cowards for wanting to leave their home after the humans kill Sultan, while he wants to resort to violence, as opposed to talking to them peacefully.
** Alex is first seen lip-syncing to a song on television while he dances around in an oversized, comfortable house to let the viewers know just how pampered humans have made him.

* ViolenceReallyIsTheAnswer: [[DiscussedTrope Discussed]] shortly after Sultan dies, where Bajrangi seriously considers going to war with the humans.

''Delhi Safari'' is a 2012 computer animated film directed by Nikhil Advani and produced by Krayon Pictures. Although the film's origin is India, the film was dubbed in English shortly after its release date and appeared in American theaters in early December of the same year.

Somewhere in the jungles of India, a leopard cub named Yuvi is busy bonding with his father when construction vehicles and workers roam into the area for deforestation. Although Yuvi manages to get away, the cub's father is killed, and he (as well as the other animals) come to the conclusion that they need to relocate before the humans kill anyone else. After much arguing, and realizing that the humans can easily kill them all if they go to war, the animals decide to talk to the humans in order to make them change their minds about destroying their home. With the help of an English-speaking parrot named Alex, Yuvi, his mother, [[RagtagBunchOfMisfits and a ragtag group of other animals]] venture across India towards Delhi, in hopes that they can convince the humans to reconsider the deforestation.

[[AmericansHateTingle While the film isn't very popular in America]], ''Delhi Safari'' has much critical acclaim in India. The film won the National Film Award for Best Animated Film in 2012, as well as the award for Best Feature Film at FICCI FRAMES 2012.
