Have you ever wondered what the names of Hollywood movies would sound like if their titles were translated in Urdu? A facebook page called “Urdurezi” sure did. They translated some of the movie titles in Urdu and the results were genuinely hilarious.
1. Captain America: Civil War
“Amreeki Kaptaan: Khaana Jangi”
Urdu word of the day: Khaana Jangi
Meaning: Civil War
2. Deadpool
“Mara Hua Talaab”
Taking the meaning too literally here.
3. Dirty Grandpa
“Ganday Dada Jaan”
Ganday ghaleez daada jee.
4. Jaws
“Jabray”
Main tera haye re jabra ho re jabra…wait.
5. Jupiter Ascending
“Charhta Hua Mushtari”
If only Channing Tatum’s parents had named him “Mushtari”.
6. Now You See Me – The Second Act
“Ab Tum Ne Mujhe Dekha: Dusra Tamasha”
Bolo bolo tum ne kya dekha.
7. Star Wars: The Force Awakens
“Sitaron Ki Jang: Zor Jagta Hai”
8. Fifty Shades Of Grey
“Grey kay pachas saaye”
Oh god.
9. Guardians Of The Galaxy
“Kehkashaan K Sarparast”
10. Man Of Steel
“Lohay Wala Aadmi”
So these are some of the few Hollywood movie titles translated in our mother tongue. They just sound a bit more interesting.
