haan bhai, aaj kal angrezi bolna ek status quo ho gaya hai

but then again, many of the actors cant speak hindi fluently....(yes yes there is the arguement that theyre acting in bollywood so...)...and sometimes it isnt just the NRIs, sometimes it's celebs for whom hindi is not their mother tongue

like say, if i were to go to india and give an interview (ahahaha, im a star!! ROFL)...i would give it in english

why? well, my mother tongue is punjabi, and i speak that fluently...but with hindi, i understand it and all...lekin, to speak it fluently in an interview would be harder...i mean learnin lines is one thing, but sayin stuff on the spot is quite another

also, since many non-indians also watch shows like this, and others who do not understand hindi....well, it's for them as well

See, we cannot say that they should speak Hindi, and the audience should be able to know what they're on about...because there are other languages beside for hindi that exist in our country...and yeh....like i love watching HK movies...but one wouldnt expect me to also understand thge interviews coz i watch the movies with subtitles ๐Ÿ˜†

yeh i used to get a little bit agitated at first as well...about actors and actresses conversin in english instead of hindi....ESP. wen they cant

that's why i luv akshay kumar even more...coz he usually gives his interviews in hindi, and he has given full interviews in punjabi! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜‰

so yeh, there are many many reasons on why people are switchin to english...it's just easier that way๐Ÿ˜†

ohhhhhhhh, well I like to see things in hindi otherwise you lose connection with it becoz this is the only way for me to keep up with the mother tongue(as some people coin it ๐Ÿ˜‰ ) otherwise it becomes hard to speak, correct?----well speaking in english is very good very very very good but then it also scares you that we are moving away from our culture and mother tongue but anyways i dont want any arguments on this topic ๐Ÿ˜‰, but it was just funny for me to see suddenly all in ENGLISH when i was expecting some hindi words ๐Ÿ˜ณ , All english serials in english and hindi shows in english , lolz its just funny, I need a break ๐Ÿ˜† ....I dont watch hindi serials neither I am a maniac. I also didnt know that india has started these shows in english ๐Ÿ˜ณ but thanks for your opinion guys....

P.S. I watch hindi movies with subtitles ONLY when they are rushing through dialogues or when they speak verrrrrrrry hard hindi ๐Ÿ˜† ๐Ÿ˜† ๐Ÿ˜†

But thanks for your opinion guys!!! ๐Ÿ˜›


Akshay is a punjabi ๐Ÿ˜• ๐Ÿ˜• ๐Ÿ˜• , another shock for me, no no i dont mean to say that, he can be punjabi but I thought he was right from mumbai, guess I need to now rejig my information about these people.... ๐Ÿ˜‰

I think its coz it telecasted in star world.. all the programs in star world is in english rit... nd I think Karan and also all the stars (mst of them) are more comfortable chatting in English...
