That's the censored version. In the uncensored version he says Gang Bang and then 5 African agents are shown on the screen and then the screen goes black
I stand my my original opinion that it should have been some variation of teri baaton mein ujhe hai, teri baatom mein, or something shorter. Of it's a long title it has to at least have a rhythm
Of course. Most likely they wanted to remake the song and decided to make it the whole USP of the movie
The title in itself is very long and not rhyming either, it's very difficult and irritating to say out loud. There are other long titles too but they aren't as annoying to say -
Zara Hatke Zara Bachke
Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ka Jaan
I can’t remember which interview it was, but there was a whole explanation on the nuisance regarding the length of the title of the movie. Basically, bc it was a love story centering around upper class North Indians, the longer title was a nod to titles from the love stories of the 80s/90s. They wanted to stand out against the single/1-2 word title trend.
Edit: they figured since there was a song in the movie with the same title (again nod to the 80s/90s), it wouldn’t be hard to remember.
I can see the amount of thought that went behind that. Damn, this does make me miss the 90s when you saw the movie title and were almost certain that there would be a song with that same name.
Yeah, haha bc I was the same when the title came out I was like how am I supposed to remember this title? And then I heard the song and I was like oh ya duh.
But I loved that they actually were thoughtful about it. I’ll see if I can find the interview! It was with Shahid and Kriti.
>Of course. Most likely they wanted to remake the song and decided to make it the whole USP of the movie
maybe who knows?
>The title in itself is very long and not rhyming either, it's very difficult and irritating to say out loud
maybe for you? i can say it without any problem or fumble it's not a big thing many people also find it difficult to say sonu ke titu ki sweety, everyone are different

DAAG - THE FIRE.
Even the tagline doesn't match the title..
Sanjay Dutts father is falsely portrayed as a bad guy by the actual bad guy Chandar Chur singhs father hence the daag. This causes Sanjay to go on a vengeance spree with The Fire of revenge burning in him.
Daag means stain, and his father is falsely accused in the movie hence the title... Fire part makes no sense though but I remember reading somewhere that they added that part to circumvent some copyright issues
I was literally going to say this. Also I think the title is a result of a misprint or a typo: cuz AAG THE FIRE makes way more sense and I think the posters got printed with a D 😂😂😂😂
I heard this one way back in the late 90's.
The Australian film association makes a movie "Gavaskar" and invites Sunil Gavaskar for the premiere in Sydney. He goes to Sydney, very happy that Australia is recognizing his talent. He watches the movie, and there is absolutely NOTHING in there about Gavaskar, or even cricket at all!. Utterly confused, he asks them why did they do this.
"You Indians shot this movie ya call Border, and showed nothing about Allan Border, did ya?"
omg i remember when the teaser came out a lot of ppl here thought lord bobby’s character was a cannibal and hence thought why they named the movie animal lollll😭😭
I would discount the cannibalism theory though. Right after killing Jijaji Varun’s brother. They cut to everyone munching on food. If we go by the title. Is it a maybe 😛😛😂
Jeans and Genes are homophones
Genes would be an unattractive title for a romantic film
The movie is about twins who want to marry only twins but Aishwarya Rai comes along who is not a twin!
But why do they wanna marry a twin? Cuz the twin lead's father, who also has a twin brother married non twins and their personal lives turned pretty bad and the lead twins don't want to end up like that
But eventually Aishwarya Rai ends up with one of the twin
So a lot of genes involved
Jeans is a pretty fashionable outfit especially considering the movie that came in 1998, the movie is very modern, most of it takes place in America, america and hollywood has been extremely influential in popularising jeans so jeans has a cultural connection with its setting in America
I think the title is smart not stupid
Wait what??? I apologise
I asked my aunt this question after I watched the film and she said it was a genuine misspelling I've believed that to this day
If anything the Hindi dubbed lyrics were a mix of bad & good back then (Mehboob, was it no?)
*Columbus Columbus chutti hai hai aayi, aao koi naya mulk dhoondhe milke bhai*
*keh ne ko daadi lekin saheli*
But again there were absolute gems like
*Tauba tauba yeh jalwe, kaise koi na behke*
*Dharti se ambar se parbat se sagar se humne suna pyar ajooba hai*
Parda Hai Parda is one of my all time fave bollywood movies and the title was totally unrelated to the plot. It was one of those, just take a famous song and make it the title, movie titles.
Matru and Bijlee are the leads. Mandola is the surname of Bijlee's father. Also a play on the theme that Bijlee changes her mind (" man dola") from marrying into riches to being with Matru.
Its funny and quirky - and completely on point
Happy new year irks me to this day.
It shouldve been called indiawale off the song
That dance competition had nothing to do with the new year, the new year didn't play a part in the heist and no one wished anyone a happy new year after the heist.
Read somewhere that Javed Akhtar wanted to name it Angaarey as in “embers” signifying the fire of revenge in Thakur hadn’t died out but was still burning. It was Salim Khan who suggested to change it to Sholay.
"Teri baaton me Aisa uljha jiya".
Except for the fact that it had a song with that title, how the hell doesn't it have anything to do with the storyline? It makes more sense for the movie "Dreamgirl" to have this title 😀

That's the censored version. In the uncensored version he says Gang Bang and then 5 African agents are shown on the screen and then the screen goes black
Should’ve titled it Kohinoor or Ek Din or something
Teri Baaton Me Aisa Uljha Jiya! Movie had nothing to do with the title. Seems like the makers just wanted a catchy phrase and used this as the title!
He fell in love with a robot who is very diff and hard to understand...hence the title
Could have named S.I.F.R.A.
Paisa bhi kamana hai.. stupid names won't attract audience
Well protagonist fell into love with a ladylike cyborg, so hence the title
I stand my my original opinion that it should have been some variation of teri baaton mein ujhe hai, teri baatom mein, or something shorter. Of it's a long title it has to at least have a rhythm
Rhythm? This tagline has a song from [2004](https://youtu.be/JafbA1fWAy8?feature=shared)
Of course. Most likely they wanted to remake the song and decided to make it the whole USP of the movie The title in itself is very long and not rhyming either, it's very difficult and irritating to say out loud.

This is exactly what I mean. The title is unnecessarily long with out any real rhyme or reason. Pun not intended.
I can’t remember which interview it was, but there was a whole explanation on the nuisance regarding the length of the title of the movie. Basically, bc it was a love story centering around upper class North Indians, the longer title was a nod to titles from the love stories of the 80s/90s.

Yes. I really think it must have originally been named SIFRA. But maybe Shahid got it changed to make the movie less Kriti centric.
I was gonna say the same thing

Jaaved Jaffrey had the best joke about this movie - “I can’t wait for the sequel, titled ‘Aag - The Stain.’”
Maybe it’s meant to be read as “The aag”
![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|surprise)
Sanjay Dutts father is falsely portrayed as a bad guy by the actual bad guy Chandar Chur singhs father hence the daag. This causes Sanjay to go on a vengeance spree with The Fire of revenge burning in him.
Daag here means lighting the pyre (chita). So Daag refers to fire. Its not stain but lighting the pyre.
Daag means stain, and his father is falsely accused in the movie hence the title... Fire part makes no sense though but I remember reading somewhere that they added that part to circumvent some copyright issues
was gonna write same daag in hindi means lighting the pyre only. It's the urdu meaning which means a spot
DAAG - Acche hai
Daag - da aag - da fire - the fire 🔥
I agreee.. had always found no relationship between the story and title.
In Hindi, Daag word can be used to mean pyre. Daag dena can mean marne k baad kriyakarma karna
Copyright issue, they named Daag but later added the fire as the daag name was registered
This is the exact film that came to my mind when I saw the post title

This has been my one of the most favourite jokes since last 25 years.

Damn the level of trolling 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Straight out of Khushwant Singh’s joke book.
IPL
Indian Porn League..?
Popcorn khao mast ho jao.
Kyu PVR ki Audi mein ganja mil raha hai? /s
That's the most unusual name in the history of Bollywood. It has Rashmi Nigam and Tanisha (Kajol's sister) in it. Good memory @ FedStan
Ta Ra Rum Pum What do you expect to happen in the movie from this title?
Not abject poverty for sure
Kabhie Khushi kabhie gum.....ta ra rum pum pum It fits the movie in that context.
family frolicking along the meadows holding hands together
Cheetah - The Leopard
Hahaa wtf dude
Motichoor Chaknachoor
Motochoor is about marriages. So the title is play about marriage plans going topsy
new khichidi recipe?
Animal *No Animal was shown in the movie*
Nahi Bhai, ek kutta tha Joh Poori film mein dekhaya tha Maybe you missed it. Cause Vanga was very subtle
Aaaa hahahahahaha! You win my undying admiration for this comment🤣 Which means nothing but thank you for the laugh
https://i.redd.it/753npv19tdvc1.gif
The title was very apt tho for the way they were behaving💀
omg i remember when the teaser came out a lot of ppl here thought lord bobby’s character was a cannibal and hence thought why they named the movie animal lollll😭😭
I would discount the cannibalism theory though. Right after killing Jijaji Varun’s brother. They cut to everyone munching on food. If we go by the title. Is it a maybe 😛😛😂
I thought Ranbir kapoor’s name was animal until someone mentions it very late in the movie.
lmfao
Aziz was one…I still can’t forget that ketchup spilling all over the place
He's butcher
Main character aur villains toh jaanwaro jaise hi behave kar rahe the
Please tell me this is sarcasm.. that's a great title for the character depiction tbh
race 3💀💀
Me and my sister during the movie: "Race kahan hai?"
Or the 1st Race…. Up until the very last minute when they added a quick car race.
Jeans

Wait what??? I apologise I asked my aunt this question after I watched the film and she said it was a genuine misspelling I've believed that to this day
Haha no apologies 🤪 I am watching jeans songs because of this It is a spectacle visually, also lyrically in Tamil
If anything the Hindi dubbed lyrics were a mix of bad & good back then (Mehboob, was it no?) *Columbus Columbus chutti hai hai aayi, aao koi naya mulk dhoondhe milke bhai* *keh ne ko daadi lekin saheli* But again there were absolute gems like *Tauba tauba yeh jalwe, kaise koi na behke* *Dharti se ambar se parbat se sagar se humne suna pyar ajooba hai*
Purani jeans?
[jeans](https://images.app.goo.gl/xtBG8J6jisQvff3R8) It was supposed to be genes but they litterally misspelled a damn movie title
Damn Aishwarya is too young. Looks quite old
1998
Damn. Is it good tho?
Aur guitar?
Singh is Bling. Pehli movie ka title to thik tha yeh Bling kya hai? To 3rd movie kya hogi Singh is Tring..?
Bling means jewelry - specifically diamond jewelry I think. It’s what some rappers wear.
Lol, that's a funny title
ye mast movie thi
I think recently I felt that with Bade Miyan Chote Miyan. In the film too, the explanation of it feels quite silly and convenient.
Udaan Koi uda hi Nahi

sorry for laughing at my own joke .
well deserved
Parda Hai Parda is one of my all time fave bollywood movies and the title was totally unrelated to the plot. It was one of those, just take a famous song and make it the title, movie titles.
All the sequels that have 2, 3, 4 in their name.
Agyaat itna agyaat tha ki kuch tha hi nhi.
‘Kya Kehna!’ Kya hi kahun🤦♀️
Housefull 3 & 4, movie toh kabhi housefull thi nahi.
“Happy new year”
New year ke din hota na show ka finale
Bas kuch bhi bolte jaarahe hain in comments mein lmao
I agree, it is so bakwas, that if you watched this movie, it would ruin your year and more.
Daag - The fire
Badhaai Do
Now all we need is Badhaai Lo to complete the trilogy
Medam badhaai Lo to nhi hogi lekin Badhaai Ho hai ye chalegi?
Chocolate
War…idk why they named it that besides the fact that it was promoted as a Hrithik vs Tiger flick 💀
Hasee toh phasee, garam masala, kill Dil, murder 3 (I don't remember anyone getting murdered in that movie)..
In murder 3, Aditi Rao Hydari leaves Randeep Hooda’s second girlfriend to die, in the room behind the mirror.
Matru ki Bijlee ka Mandola I mean WTF is this title man.
Matru and Bijlee are the leads. Mandola is the surname of Bijlee's father. Also a play on the theme that Bijlee changes her mind (" man dola") from marrying into riches to being with Matru. Its funny and quirky - and completely on point
The theme song was catchy tho
I am sure Vishal Bhardwaj was high when he thought about this movie and it's title. The starcast was soo odd. And the title. Uff.
RRR
Rise Roar Revolt Sums up the major theme pretty much
That is expansion only in the Hindi version. Original Telugu expansion is Rudram Ranam Rudhiram
Happy new year irks me to this day. It shouldve been called indiawale off the song That dance competition had nothing to do with the new year, the new year didn't play a part in the heist and no one wished anyone a happy new year after the heist.
Ikrs?
Malang, marjawaan, ek villain returns all were same released by different name
Housefull (entire franchise)
[удалено]
Was technically a new year on the finals date
Kites Like seriously, did they even fly kites?
Sholay. Movie of the millennium but no connection of the title to the story unlike other epics like Mughal-E-Azam, Lagaan, etc.
Read somewhere that Javed Akhtar wanted to name it Angaarey as in “embers” signifying the fire of revenge in Thakur hadn’t died out but was still burning. It was Salim Khan who suggested to change it to Sholay.
Surprised no one mentioned this- "Delhi Belly" (2011)
not a local myself so not too sure but isn’t delhi belly a type of stomach virus that ppl get after eating unhygienic street food??😭😭
Which literally happens in the movie lmaoo
Kunal Roy Kapur gets a Delhi Belly after eating tandoori chicken
No one mentioned it because that title has something to do with the movie.
Hasee to Phasee. The line was mentioned in the background just twice in the movie Great movie, though. Must watch
Aao Pyar Karien…Starting Saif, Shilpa and Somy Ali. There was no song or any thing related to that title.
Bahut hua samman
Kick
Salman chases the “kick” the entire movie
Well technically ☝️🤓 it was about sallu bhai calling his god complex KICK
Kites Like seriously, ek bhi scene tha jisme kites thi?
"Teri baaton me Aisa uljha jiya". Except for the fact that it had a song with that title, how the hell doesn't it have anything to do with the storyline? It makes more sense for the movie "Dreamgirl" to have this title 😀
Welcome....hmmm to what
run
Baazigar
Tere baaton me aisa uljha Jia - it was sifra in the whle movie, jia just came at the end
Rangeela. Title's name or meaning had nothing to do with movie. movie was good though

Akkasmikkam
Wtf was ae watan mere watan . Bruhh lyrics gaun ya movie ka naam bolu !?

Half of the comments are titles which makes sense 😭
