Last week saw the release of the mad capper film Housefull 3, which starred an array of superstars including Akshay Kumar, Abhishek Bachchan, Riteish Deshmukh, Jacqueline Fernandez, Nargis Fakhri and Lisa Haydon. While the film has been living upto its title at the Box-Office so far, what caught our attention were the Hindi one-liners that the NRI actresses in the film to make a wise-crack comment each time. As Amitabh Bachchan says in Namak Halal, 'I can walk English, talk English and laugh English', Jacqueline, Nargis and Lisa try the same with Hindi, but only to disastrous results. Their literal Hindi translation of some of the popular English phrases is as quirky as it gets.
We, at Bollywood Hungama, came up with a compilation of the famous one liners that can act as a handy dictionary for the NRIs, who are planning to learn Hindi.
