@@Ankitcse913 watch lyricists talk about how since even the 50s and 60s the song's have been very intentionally written with a double meaning. It's just that the poetry of hindi/urdu allows for these things to be written in such a beautiful 'innocent' manner that you can make sound all sweet and romantic but also have a sexual meaning to them. I remember an interview about the song "Jhumka gira re" describing the lines "saiyaa aye naen jhukae ghar me chori chori, bole jumka me phena dun baaki chori...till jhumka gira re hum dono ki takraar me".
It’s all fun and games but most of them are funny because they are translated directly, without any poetic license, for example “jigar” which translates to liver, could be used to portray heart. Also some of them were made to insinuate double meanings since we didn’t used to have much physical intimacy in Indian movies. And that’s what made them fun. Coz everybody knew they were scandalous lyrics but since they were approved for public consumption, you could sing and dance to them without shame. It’s just like there’s a lot of sex in India but it’s all subtly hidden behind the garb of culture. And I mean that in a nice way. Which makes talking about things related to physical relationships easier. Instead of straight taboo. Language plays a strong role in that, and that’s why we have so many different synonyms and adjectives, unlike the limited supply of English. Oh well, it’s not the first time this topic has come up, just with social media now it’s getting more views.
The first line of the song 'choli ke peeche kya hai' was translated in all languages around India (also in tamil) and tried to ask the hidden things. But it meant different as per the situation in the movie.
Most Bollywood song are in Hindi but with Urdu words in them which people don't understand so they just check out of the lyrics and go with the vibe. Its almost becomes like mumble rap 😂😂
It's all fun, but do remember, that the literal translation is different from the context of the song... for example "kudiyon ko daale daana" had the right literal translation but in context, the song is comparing the girls to the birds and the guy s someone who throws grains to the birds, making the birds flock to him.
@@ayanchoudhury6697 there is actually , i found an example in the comment just above this thread , so yea it's not about digging too deep but more about to establish something so a few of the problems can be sorted out
Aap jaisa koi meri zindagi mein aaye to baap ban jaaye😂😂😂😂😂 that would be the best translation (if someone like you enters my life he will become a dad) for Google wouldn't be able to distinguish between baat and baap in this song.
वाह भाई साहब। बडा मजा आ रहा है एक विलायती से अपने लिटरेचर का नाश करवाने में। ये इतनी ही अच्छी बात है तो इंग्लिश गानों को भी हिंदी में ऐसे ही बर्बाद करो जरा। समझ नहीं आ रहा वो लड़की नालायक है या हम
This PERFECTLY highlights the high context vs low context culture theory which says that eastern cultures tend to be highly context dependant and require cultural knowledge for effective communication while western cultures tend to be low context and have direct communication
I have been following your channel for a very long time but i havent seen you ever reviewing a Govinda movie. He was the king of comedy in India when he was at his peak and i would like you to just review one movie of his called "haseena maan jayegi" which has sanjay dutt as well. You will not be disappointed.
I was expecting Akshay Kumar's hookah bar song. Also, this reminds me of the hilarious misheard lyrics. The Prabhu deva ones were especially very funny.
There are certain love ❤️ expressions in India 🇮🇳 which are completely alien to western world and can never be translated because u can only translate words not emotions
I am going to quit listening to Hindi songs from now on, my entire childhood is a lie, or I am the stupid one among all. But hold on why am I focusing on such songs there are many songs out there which have very beautiful meanings for example our patriotic songs beat all other language songs isn't it. And the songs by Gulzar how can I forget them they are real gems not these are 🤔 though.
The video was fun....but misleading... Literal translation can be even more funny For ex... Kabhi neem neem kabhi shahad shahad ...will be 'sometimes neem neem sometimes honey honey'
15% songs were intentional, rest were simple translation error (some time intentionally).. In Hindi a word can be had different meanings, for example the word "jaan" can have 3 meanings (1) life (2) Know (3) Beloved and many times Nouns in Hindi is used as Adjectives.
These foreign reaction channels fake their reaction. The more these channels praise indian content , The more views and positive feedback they get and free money too.

You should see her literal translation of tamil songs....because.....tamil lyrics are ANOTHER LEVEL OF 'you know what'
No, it just means that the lyrics are really weird or NSFW but we rarely notice because the tune has us hooked.
almost all are translated wrong - Hindi songs use different edioms , phrases , poetry lines and their meaning is different in different situations

@@divyak9980I have many collections of poems written with one intention, but when I used to read it without context they would mean very different
@@Kathakathan11 so lost on how you've understood that i am saying something is wrong about the jhumka song
Oh wow! Someone finally recommended this. 😂
This is what we mean when we say that our sex scenes are basically replaced by songs
Yea ppl are like these days films are vulgar but they clearly haven't heard these songs 😂
😂😂
Listen Bhojpuri songs , you don't need to find hidden meaning, it's all there without covering 😂
And you will definitely laugh and enjoy too😎🤣
bhojpuri songs are wild dene gana gacha gach lol

Yes Jigar also means heart
@@Kathakathan11 thank you for your confirmation!
Jigar means liver, metaphorically means something close to heart
Thats the whole point of translating "literally"
With a population of 1.4 billion, there’s clearly a LOT of sex in India. 😆

Such a homely girl, always does her chores.
Was waiting for 'Teri Nani Mari Toh Main Kya Karoon' from Coolie No. 1. That one stayed with me for years. 🤣
'Nani Marna' is a Hindi idiom if you don't/didn't know.
@@MayankThakur216 we are talking about 'literal translation'
You have seen a bit of that exercise song in pretentious reviews, where they roasted the hell out of the movie. The movie is called Prem Aggan.
I feel like Rick is really a dirty person 😂...a lot more than Korbin.
Korbin is more Sanskari & Gentle man than Rick. I have noticed this in many videos.
@@D_Thing You haven't watched the early videos then. Korbin just toned it down because people started complaining.
Love this show! Love this content creator. Thanks for sharing! 😂❤
She changed my perception towards Bollywood songs ..😭
lol ,its just a direct translation of the idioms or metaphors.
Like " elephant in the room ". You dont take it for literally 😂😂
Our songwriters are NAUGHTY 😂 so many dual meaning lyrics
Most Bollywood song are in Hindi but with Urdu words in them which people don't understand so they just check out of the lyrics and go with the vibe. Its almost becomes like mumble rap 😂😂
She is a great singer too
literal translation of 'break a leg' is break a leg.
but actual means all the best
She is in London I like her videos alottt
There also many songs with good and beautifull lyrics !! You should react on that too!!! These are not the famous songs !!! Except some !!!
I actually watched her same short over 100th time now and it never gets boring ❤❤😂
Just imagine literal translation of Bhojpuri songs 😂
and pakistani punjabi mujras.
@6:50, you've already heard that 'Exercise Song.' When you reacted to Pretentious Movie Review of that film - Prem Aggan.
The fun is in google translator. 😂 It is like google maps which sometimes leads folks into wilderness
At first it was funny but then as the playlist continued the lyrics highlighted a similar theme.
Finally everyone is enjoying this😂😂😂😂
I saw this about a month ago. Pure genius...
She cracks me up everytime
Jose is the way to go when it comes to misheard and missed songs 😁
Yes absolutely
Which is why songs in the 50s and 60s had lyrics and soul
It's all fun, but do remember, that the literal translation is different from the context of the song...
for example "kudiyon ko daale daana" had the right literal translation but in context, the song is comparing the girls to the birds and the guy s someone who throws grains to the birds, making the birds flock to him.

I had a nice time watching this reaction :)
in the intro pun korbin groaning sounded like a xenomorph
Govinda's MERI MARZI would easily top this list
The "Exercise" song is the one from Prem Agan , ie the "Beautiful Pain" movie from pretentious reviews you guys reacted to
Most of them are actually the exact meaning
Aap jaisa koi meri zindagi mein aaye to baap ban jaaye😂😂😂😂😂 that would be the best translation (if someone like you enters my life he will become a dad) for Google wouldn't be able to distinguish between baat and baap in this song.
It's baat ban jaye not baap
Bidi Jalayile is a song on Farmer's bad life their daily challenges and all.
Listen the Lyrics closely
It doesn't matter how many times they listen to it, they don't understand Hindi so it's just noises for them
The song no-23 was requested by me and she made that song.

Some of them are not even really that bad even when you literally translate them. She really overreacts on some of these.

Real meaning behind songs are different ..... like choli ke pichhe and some others it's totally different meaning from translation
That was amazing😂😂

It was a "bad" song back then.
😂😂😂😂😆😆😆😆
words had different meaning in hindi but after translation it looks double meaning joke lolzz😂

*Those are actual translation, that means the words have same meaning in Hindi as shown in English.*

I think "jigar" means heart not liver 😂
It means Liver. I suppose some cultures (Persian, Afghan), give the same figurative meaning to the liver that we do to the heart or mind.
