and who all are included in NO ONE?.....Urdu, Persian, Arabic will be discussed here in BW reference....we are interested.....people who are not interested can PLEASE go to another thread of their liking ......or if u find it offensive report it to Mods.....but please don't tell us what not to discuss here......These languages become a part of BW because they are used in BW movies...simple.

Keep calm n post on topic n keep ur assumptions with u n follow wat u preach . I am talking about Bollywood .

Because the TM wants to discuss it, it is very relevant to BW....and its not a big deal....this is a forum....people discuss a lot of stinking/stupid stuff over here.....I ignore the stuff I don't like....or if its too obnoxious I just report to the Mods.....why fret over someone who wants to discuss Urdu words and how they are pronounced.....If you open one about Tamil words....I probably won't even open the thread because I don't know Tamil.

This thread was a much saner thread worth a discussion but as always got misinterpreted ,,,about people trying to put others down when there was no intention anywhere......its just about pronouncing the word wrong and that also by BW people...not even people in general...lol..

😊

Setting up this discussion was a mistake. I am gonna lay low now, but will someday put a post with my observations. And then *run away*. Just like you ran away after dropping Afghan Jalebi. 😃

and I didn't not run away after Afghan jalebi...🤣....I had nothing more to say at that point....see I came back..didn't I?😆

I did not say that, “you said” Urdu is most beautiful.

I said that was the convention in India till a decade. I said, even I was following the same convention, trying to understand the Urdu words in Gulzar poetry.

I don’t dislike Urdu or English. But I am against common people getting graded because of their language/accent.

There was a time when Kangana was mocked for her English. That was just an elitist attitude, which many nepotistic kids harbour in Bollywood. What is so great about Shashi Tharoor’s English? He had different schooling than she had. That’s it. That does not mean, I dislike English.

Till English replaced it, Urdu enjoyed this elite status in India. (Like “this person has such impeccable Urdu” etc). My rant is only against this special status. Not against any language.

I like Jackie Shoff’s style best. Yes. His Urdu/English/Hindi nothing might be great. But he cuts it straight.


(I did say “la” sound exists in Sanskrit. I said, it is not available in Hindi)

Ya d elitist attitude of bolly n bolly does anything for bucks , they made tapori also famous lol .

Speaking of snowflakes -


@ TM


If you really wanted only the opinions that agree with yours , you are on the wrong portal .. You made a topic and people had an opinion on it --> cannot handle ? - dont create a topic .. Simple .. 😛


You can edit , edit , edit , plead , plead , plead but that doesn't mean everyone here who shares a different opinion will turn a blind eye to your topic .. It doesn't work like that .. 😆

I second the poster who said Mohd Rafi. Any of his songs are an example of clear pronounciation of Urdu.
