But arguably the worst, still, was “Ek bandar hotel ke andar” for “Dunston checks in”. I seem to remember coming across a page that listed some particularly bad Thai/Japanese translations as well, long back…
(Jurassic Park) Lost World: I saw a Hindi trailer on TV that went:
Goldblum (Malcolm) looks out of the window of the trailer with the baby T-rex, sees the mother T-Rex outside , turns around and declares,
“Dekho, Dekho! Uski mama aa gayi!”
Talking of Thai, here’s what a clients secretary once wrote to me:
I do not like to waste you time to slow down the payment.
Please apologize if this is causing you headache.
