😉 I have watched Bollywood movies for years with subtitles. I am not fluent in Hindi and never will be. If you live in US and born here, it is hard to adapt yourself to the language. Anyway, don't feel shy. 😳 It is fine to admit if you don't know Hindi. Please share your thoughts. ⭐️

I never watched bollywood movies with subtitles. But then again I have watched them since I was a baby lol. I think I'm pretty fluent despite not being remotely Indian. I'm Persian.

Yeah, I'm usually clueless as F*** w/o subs. I know a few words here and there but nothing much.
Last year I downloaded Dhoom and it didn't come with subs...I had to check wikipedia every 2mins to keep up with the story. 😆

not really i beg to differ i am born n raised in america and im fluent in hindi n punjabi but i cant read or write it. in india i usually get a illiterate feeling sometimes because of it. But yea i know of a lot of Indians that cant speak hindi or punjabi, maybe their parents don't have time or something...anyways to each their own.
