One thing is for sure: We are an entertaining bunch. And nothing seems to light our creative bulb like movies! Oh cinema, you glorious thing. Creating geniuses since forever. For genius indeed were those souls who came up with these Hindi translations of Hollywood films. Ranked from bottom to top, you will never be able to un-see these posters, so if you're faint-hearted, please do NOT scroll down.
1. Mission Osama Bin Laden : Zero Dark ThirtyTo the point. No muss, no fuss, no drama. They didn't want you to be confused about the film. This is what it's about. Be clear before you buy that ticket. Okay? Thanks.
2. Maut Ka Bulawa : Resident EvilGuess they changed the title completely because the literal translation would have sounded like a terrible cuss word? Hmmm.. So they decided to find the most morbid title ever? WHY?
3. Khatron Ke Khiladi : Django UnchainedNot to be confused with that glorious Akshay Kumar action film that bombed on so many levels. Here they mean the critically acclaimed Quentin Tarantino film which stars Leonardo DiCaprio. Yes, they do.
4. Iron Man in and as Fauladi RakshakGood job, translator. Hope you win a one way trip to Antarctica.
5. Angaare Bane Sholey : The AvengersWHAT. HOW. I MEAN.. JUST NO.
6. Maha Dabangg : Captain America, The Winter SoldierReally? Somebody tell Salman Khan about what's happening behind his back. Maybe he can get them to stop.
7. Samundar Ke Lootere, Ek Anjaan Rahasya : Pirates of the Caribbean, On Stranger TidesThis one's not too bad, eh? Quite catchy. Also Johnny Depp can carry off any title. ANY.
8. Harry Potter Aur Rahasyamayi Tekhana : Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
How scary. Are you scared? I am scared. Oh and by the way Gryffindor is called
Garurdwar in Hindi.
Kya baat, kya baat, kya baat.
9.
Bindas Bawarchi : Ratatouille It's probably an art to be this talented at translation. Who is responsible for this? Rats of France are indebted to him/her.
10. Mahabali Hulk : The Incredible HulkSay WHAT again?
11. Up! : Udhan Choooo
LOL
12. Mr and Mrs Sharma : Mr and Mrs SmithTo quote Lady Gaga, 'applause, applause, applause'. Do you think those who watched Mr and Mrs Sharma noticed that the actors weren't Indian?
