It’s all fun and games until the film producer who murdered you in a past life shows up at your awards party and ruins your giant group dance number
The most horribly treated character in Indian Cinema is probably the hero's sister. She gets molested, kidnapped, used as bait, raped, gangraped, humiliated, at times publicly, beaten, tortured by her in-laws, burnt for dowry, murdered by her husband and so on. All this just to give the hero a tragic back story and justify his penchant for violence.
Everytime heroine is kidnapped or molested, hero would always reach there in the nick of the time, but he's always too late or helpless to save his sister.
And even if she escapes all these atrocities in rare cases, there must be atleast one scene where hero must protect her 'ijjat' from goons. Afterall, that's the only way it can be proved that he is a good brother, a good man, the perfect hero. And the only way brother-sister relationship can be portrayed on screen.

I know I have good judgment, I know I have good taste
It's funny and it's ironic that only I feel that way
I promise 'em that you're different and everyone makes mistakes
But just don't
I heard that you're an actor, so act like a stand-up guy
Whatever devil's inside you, don't let him out tonight
I tell them it's just your culture and everyone rolls their eyes
Yeah, I know
All I'm asking, baby
Please, please, please
Don't prove I'm right
And please, pleasе, please
Don't bring me to tеars when I just did my makeup so nice
Heartbreak is one thing, my ego's another
I beg you, don't embarrass me, like the others, oh
Please, please, please
