Title tale...

Aaah, Lazy Sunday Morning, nothing much to do other than watch TV. Surfing thru channels, I got to see Mr. and Mrs. Smith promos on Gemini TV (Telugu Channel). The Movie was dubbed into Telugu. So, the movie title was in Telugu too. Could you guess what the name of the move is/was?? It’s called “Chalaki rani kiladi raja”. Is this cool or what ;-)???

I can remember some of such movies, which were dubbed into regional languages like Eraser, which became ‘Mitadoonga naam-o-nishaan’ in Hindi. Fatal attraction got better, It was called “Khooni Aakarshan”. Its awesome how people actually think of these titles.

Wonder what would happen if Bollywood movies were dubbed into English, it would be just perfect, for a disaster that is. But, we would be treated with some hilarious titles like these…

Kuch Kuch Hota Hai - Something or Other is Happening
Kaho Na Pyaar Hai - Say That There is Love
Phir Bhi Dil Hai Hindustani - Still the Heart Remains Indian
Na Tum Jaano Na Hum - Neither Do You Know, Neither Do I
Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge - Choose from - The Brave Heart Shall Take the Bride or The Bold Shall Win the Bride.
Kabhi Kushi Kabhi ghum - Soggy Hindu family Mess
Also, heard somewhere that Deewaar has been distributed overseas under the title I’ll Die For Mama!
