* TheDogBitesBack: After one of Raj's friends makes fun of Rohit, Rohit kicks a basketball in his face, sending him ''and'' the ball [[PunchedAcrossTheRoom flying]]. This is followed by several of the [[JerkJock jerk jocks]] ganging up on Rohit, who effortlessly beats them up with his newfound SuperStrength. Then he flexes his newly developed [[HeroicBuild bicep]] scaring a few of the other bullies.
** Throughout the movie Raj relentlessly bullies Rohit for [[EvilIsPetty extremely trivial reasons]]. Rohit first humiliates Raj and his entire basketball team by [[ChallengingTheBully defeating them with his team of empowered kids]] (Rohit is the only one old enough to play basketball). Then, when Raj tries to investigate what is in Rohit's bag, Rohit proceeds to beat up his entire gang, then Raj himself, before tossing him aside, deciding he is [[NotWorthKilling not worth fighting]].
** In the final scene, Raj tries to bully Rohit again, insulting him. Rohit kicks his [[RunningGag basketball back to his face like he did to his friend earlier]] [[PunchedAcrossTheRoom sending him and the ball flying]] again, indicating his powers are back.
** A more comedic example, during the basketball match, Raj mockingly messes up a kid's hair and then slaps him, to show his power over the kid. Once Jadoo empowers the kids, he smacks Raj on the ass and non-verbally tells him it is a payback for earlier. Raj's expession is priceless.


Added DiffLines:

** Raj and his team roughs up Rohit, just because Rohit wanted to learn to play basketball, thinking that will impress Nisha. That and earlier, Rohit had accidentally interrupted his game. Raj threatens Rohit not to go anywhere near Nisha. This acts as a major BreakTheCutie moment for Rohit.


Added DiffLines:

* HeroicBuild: [[spoiler:Rohit, appears to be a skinny young man. Jadoo grants him intelligence ''and'' super strength. He soon flexes his arm to find now his biceps are ''massive''. Later during the basketball match, Raj tries to flex his muscles to mock Rohit, only for Rohit to reveal he has an equally impressive build now.]]


Added DiffLines:

** Rohit's class teacher is a generous man who encourages and motivates Rohit when he manages to get an answer right. He is even impressed when Rohit verbally solves a 10th grade question. He even smiles proudly when Rohit subjects his SadistTeacher Mathur to a [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech verbal]] NoHoldsBarredBeatdown.


Added DiffLines:

* NotWorthKilling: A non-lethal example, after years of bullying at the hands of Raj, when Raj and his friends unknowingly threaten Jadoo, Rohit is [[BringIt fully prepared to face them]]. [[spoiler:He proceeds to clobber the gang, Raj included. Raj then tries to fight Rohit, armed with a metal rod. Rohit effortlessly beats him up, picks him up, balls up a fist prepared to punch his lights out, but seeing his pathetic state, he decides he is not worth fighting anymore. With a look of disgust in his face, Rohit tosses him away.]]
