Funny Translations

This is about the English movies, which are translated in Tamil.

Recently i happened to see the Mummy movie in Tamil. I had already watched it in English. It was very serious not knowing what is going to happen in the end. But when i saw it in Tamil, i can't stop laughing. The reason is the way they translated it. The actress is saying "Paatheengala naan eppadi kandu pudichennu". Actually, the Mummy and its slaves are coming to grab them. Not knowing that she is saying like that.

Another one is Jackie's Shanghai Noon and Shanghai Knights. In this movie Owen Wilson and Jackie are becoming friends. Owen is actually a thief, who steals many things especially in trains. In Tamil, he is a pakka local thief using words like "eeppa eennaa solra nee" "eennaa appaala vareeya" "eennaa summa kooveganae irukka" and many more. This is really funny to watch.

If you got a chance to watch it in Tamil, don't miss it. Enjoy....
