Added DiffLines:

* GoodScarsEvilScars: [[spoiler: Saurabh, post MagicPlasticSurgery looks identical to Khalid, but has some scars across his face]]. Col Luthra has a tiny scar across his right eye, possibly as a ShoutOut to ComicBook/NickFury, given he has a [[{{expy}} similar role]] in this universe.


Added DiffLines:

* MagicPlasticSurgery: [[spoiler:Both Saurabh and Ilyasi use plastic surgery to go under the radar. Saurabh takes the identity of Khalid.]]
* MrFanservice: Both Kabir and Khalid are played by Creator/HrithikRoshan and Tiger Shroff respectively, who are considered sex symbols. They both wear super tight, body hugging outfits that show off their toned physiques. Sometimes they also suffer from ClothingDamage to show off their muscles and in the final fight, Khalid [[spoiler:(actually Saurabh)]] tears off his shirt and fights Kabir topless.
* NeverFoundTheBody: Saurabh. [[spoiler:And there is good reason for this, he has been alive and well and had [[KillAndReplace taken the identity of Khalid, who was killed]]]].
* OnceMoreWithClarity: The chase sequence in Marrakesh ends with Khalid going after [[TheMole Saurabh]] and getting shot, but surviving. [[spoiler:After Kabir is poisoned, it is revealed that Khalid has been DeadAllAlong and the "Khalid" we have been following is really Saurabh, who underwent MagicPlasticSurgery]].


Added DiffLines:

* ThisCannotBe: [[spoiler:When Kabir confronts Ilyasi and Saurabh in the climax, this is Saurabh's reaction as he had poisoned Kabir, he didn't think he would survive]].
* WorkoutFanservice: Khalid, at one point, is seen practicing his moves on a punching bag, while wearing a wifebeater.


* TrailersAlwaysLie: The trailer shows Hiritk Roshan playing the BigBad and Tiger Schroff playing TheHero. [[spoiler: in the film, it's the polar opposite]].
