Bilingual Bonus: Although everybody speaks to her in English, and she appears to understand perfectly, Naani mostly speaks in unsubtitled Punjabi. Viewers can get the gist of what she's saying through the context of the conversations and the occasional English word she peppers into her lines. Mr. Khan often exclaims "Oh, twadi!" whenever his lies and schemes start to fall apart. He also shouts "Chup!" which means "Silence!" in both Hindi and Urdu whenever he wants to shut someone up. Mrs. Khan curses in Urdu with no translations or subtitles provided. Mr. Khan's reactions imply that what she says is incredibly rude.

Berserk Button: Mentioning that Mr. Khan can't handle spicy foods guarantees that he'll start gobbling up the spiciest thing he can get his hands on and suffering as a result. As a proud Pakistani, the mere mention of India will get Mr. Khan ranting and raving.
