There are no punch points but here are some points that you should keep in mind while writing a PPDT story!
Story should be connected to the picture. If a flood scene is shown don't write on drought conditions :)
Your story should match the mood of the character eg if you said the character is in positive mood then don't write in the story that he has lost his mother negative mood).
Story should have name of the hero which should be as per the theme of the story. Like in the movies if you want to show an underworld person a name like “Kalu Chhipakali” and for a royal character “ Ranbir Inder Singh”.
Story should have an aim of the hero. Bit of a challenge and how he overcomes the challenge to come out as hero. Challenge can be a person, circumstances or a situation.
If you take help of some one do give due credit to him in the story.
Even girls can be hero (heroin) of the story.
As a rough guide if I make a movie on your story and screen it in the PVR next to your house would you go and see it or will you be doubt full? If you are doubtful it's a flop.
