Hindi phrases and their literal translations!

Hindi phrases when literally translated into English turn out to be quite funny. I am sure you must have heard of the phrase - we're like this only literally translated from hum aaise hi hain. Here are some more. Enjoy!

chori chori chupke chupke - robbery robbery secretly secretly

subah subah dimaag mat ghumaa - morning morning dont turn head

Mujhe maaloom hi nahi hai - I'm not knowing only

kuch kuch hota hai - something something happens

Mere peeche peeche mat aao - Dont come behind behind me

Tum isme apna dimaag mat daalo - Don't put your brains into this

This one's my favourite!

bhaagte bhoot ki langot pakadna - catching the underwear of the running ghost
