Keep it simple, stupid (acronym KISS) is supposedly a mantra for good management. I think it works in filmy dialogue too. Simple, and effective. Examples-
1. Don ko pakadna mushkil hi nahin, naamumkin hai.
2. Loha garam hai, maar do hathoda.
3. Has beta has, tu muqaddar ka baadshah hoga.
4. Tum jis school mein padhte ho, uske hum headmaster hain.
5. Yeh koi khilona nahi hai, haath kat jaayega. (addressing a knife-wielding villain).
6. Mera naam Surma Bhopali aasay hi nahi hain.
7. Aapke paaon dekhe. Bahut khoobsoorat hain. Inhe zameen par mat rakhiye. Maile ho jaayenge. (from Pakeezah, by Raaj Kumar, about Meena Kumari)
8. Mogambo Khush hua.
9. This body is made of steel, Daddy. (Sanjay Dutt, unconvincingly, in his first film,
Rocky)
10. Ab main badi ho gayee hoon, Daddy (Vijayeta Pandit, unconvincingly and shrieking, in a fight over choosing her mate, in Love Story)
