Primus Pilus Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 An old Indian music video with English subtitles... not the translation, but how the language sounds if it were English. I really enjoyed the random lunacy of it. http://www.break.com/index/absolutely-hila...usic-video.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nephele Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 "Your pundit got amour!" Gawds, I really love Bollywood productions, and I've got a collection of Bollywood DVDs. (I think I even recognize this one.) I play these DVDs in the privacy of my home and dance along with the beat. Can't help myself, I'm a Bollywood freak. Whoever did this hilarious "translation" is a genius. -- Nephele Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klingan Posted November 3, 2007 Report Share Posted November 3, 2007 Wow... Indians are indeed a strange people. Here is one of the most popular popular misheard lyrics videos I know of, with over 4.6 million views and 10.000 comments. It's been out on the web for quite a while now.

caldrail Posted November 3, 2007 Report Share Posted November 3, 2007 Out of curiosity I picked up a bollywood epic once. Very colourful, full of drama and dark expressions - very high production values in fact - until that woman broke into a song and dance routine on a grassy hill. Oh boy did I laugh! I know this is the sort of thing the indians enjoy and expect, but to my sensibilities, it was a very strange film. Totally unwatchable.

The Augusta Posted November 6, 2007 Report Share Posted November 6, 2007 There's just something so bizarre about the whole Bollywood thing, that I actually love the stuff. The Hindu Indians seem to have such a zest for life and enthusiasm for sharing their culture with us in these little sojourns. Bring 'em on - I say! Let's have more of it. What I like even more is the fact that the Hindu Indians never seem to take themselves so seriously. Do you think it's anything to do with pantheism?
