Moto Ghotalo Meaning

To begin with, Moto Ghotalo is more like a Rajasthani (and maybe to an extent Gujarati) version of what would be Mota Ghotala, or bada Ghotala in Khadi Boli Hindi. [For the uninitiated, Khadi boli is the dialect of Hindi that was spoken in the Western UP/Delhi areas and has in time found prominence in most places, including Film Industry.]

So, moto ghotalo, or bada ghotala would in English be 'big scam', or 'big scandal'. Mota is also the word for 'big' in Gujarati.

Update: In Gujarati, Ghotalo is used for mistake, and so, in Gujarati, Moto ghotalo would mean 'Big mistake.' Though this was a relatively small one. :D

Dhat Teri Ki Meaning

Now now, Vishal-Shekhar are actually bringing too much of local lingo into the songs [actually it can hardly ever be too much, it's always good to have some 'real' words there]. This one, though, should be among my favorites. No, I am not talking about Esha Gupta here. It's about the words, dhat teri ki.

The truth is, the words have been so common in my language, that I am at a loss of how to explain their meaning. But tryers winners, so let's try.

Dhat teri ki is something like 'shit man'.

Yep. That sounds kind of close, correct. Dhat is anyway like 'crap', though the word doesn't literally mean that (or anything else, for that matter). Teri ki would mean.. well, again teri would mean yours, and ki is absolutely redundant and has no business being here. But that's how it is. And yes, don't try and translate the pieces to make a phrase back, because I just realize it would come out as 'your shit'.

So just don't go there [or come back if you did, anyway] and believe me when I say dhat teri ki means something like 'shit man'. It's something you hear yourself saying when something doesn't turn out the way it's supposed to [and haven't yet taken to F words, actually].

Chingam Chabake Meaning

Don't know what's a Chingam? Let's make it easier. This thing is also known as chewing gum in most places which are not villages and small towns of India, or should I say even Indian subcontinent. However, a huge population calls 'simply' calls it chingam (or chingum) and the word doesn't even have an alternative in local languages mostly so chingam serves as a multilingual word.

And chabaana is Hindi for chewing, so chabaa ke would mean, 'having chewed', or as it should mean, 'while chewing' though the former would be the more literal meaning.

So overall, you could say Chingam chabaake here means 'while chewing (chewing-)gum.'

Toon/ Toonh/ Tooh Meaning

Toon, toonh, or Tooh as it's spelled by the makers of Gori Tere Pyaar mein, is a Punjabi word, more of an unofficial kind, which is used for bum, ass, backside, behind, whatever you call it. In fact the usage of the word here is cute kind, like sometimes tush is used.

Now if you would want to know what's an 'unofficial' kind of a word, let me tell you that the word is not easy to find in a dictionary, and I couldn't find it online or offline in a dictionary. However, the lyrics very clearly tell in the first line itself that the word is used for 'booty'. So looks like it's one of those words that pass on through generations unofficially, without being formalized. Also, words like 'toonh' would not have too high a possibility of being formalized I guess, so unless it gets more official, let's shake our toonhs unofficially. :D

Toon/ Toonh/ Tooh Lyrics Translation [Gori Tere Pyaar Mein]

Movie: Gori Tere Pyar Mein
Music: Vishal-Shekhar
Lyrics: Anvita Dutt Guptan
Singers: Mika Singh, Mamta Sharma, Shruti Pathak, Shekhar Ravjiani
Cast: Imran Khan, Kareena Kapoor

For the sake of simplicity, the multiple tooh-tooh-tooh-tooh sounds are not translated. Tooh, better written as Toonh, is Punjabi for bum, or tush, or backside, to put it that way. And like many more words in Punjabi, sounds more lovable than bad.

English mein kende booty-shooty
Punjabi vich Tooh!
Tooh, too-tu-tooh-tooh, toonh, tooh-tooh tooh-tooh...
Shake that tooh

They call it booty-shooty in English,
and 'Toonh' in Punjabi.
Tooh, too-tu-tooh-tooh, toonh, tooh-tooh tooh-tooh...
Shake that bum

[Here, shake that tooh is said in a way that you can use it to mean shake that bum, or shake that 'too', as in, you too shake yours. Two meanings for a word.]

O mehfil taan sajdi te hilte-dulte toonh
Gore gore naughty-naughty round-round toonh
Punjaabiyaan de toon, Sharabiyan se toonh
Gore gore nikke-nikke tere-mere toonh
Repeat pe, beat pe vajdi dholki
Everybody does it, and you can do it too

It's a lovely gathering and there are moving bums,
these fair, naughty, round bums,
The bums of Punjabis, the bums of drunkards,
fair, small (as in pretty/cute), yours and mine bums..
The drums play on repeat, on the beat,
Everybody does it, and you can do it too

[i.e., you too can shake your bum, that is, dance with all of us, completely lost.]

Left right kare chain churaaye
Tooh, too-tu-tooh-tooh, toonh, tooh-tooh tooh-tooh..
District mein hullad machaaye
Tooh, too-tu-tooh-tooh, toonh, tooh-tooh tooh-tooh..
All the boys go crazy when i shake that
Tooh, too-tu-tooh-tooh, toonh, tooh-tooh tooh-tooh..
Aashiqon ki linein lagwaye
Tooh, too-tu-tooh-tooh, toonh, tooh-tooh tooh-tooh..

[The bums] move left and right, and make me restless,
[the bums] make an uproar in the entire district..
All the boys go crazy when i shake that bum..
[the bums] get lover-boys queued up..

Haay raid padaaye raaton mein
Punjaabiyon ki tooh
Baraatiyon ki tooh

In the nights there are raids because of
Punjabis' bums,
The bums of those in wedding procession..

Baaz naa aaye drunkard sharabiyon di tooh
Oh red gulabi kurti mein hai kya gazab ki tooh
Haay kya gazab ki tooh...

The bum of drunkards don't stop,
and what an awesome bum is there in the red-pink dress
What an awesome bum..

Paake main choli short
Peeti tequila shot
January mein bhi hot
Now what to do..
Thodi si ho gayi tunn
Sexy step kar le gun
Everybody does it
And you can do it too

Wearing a short blouse,
I have tequila shots,
I'm hot in January even,
now what to do..
I've got a bit intoxicated,
Come do the sexy step,
Everybody does it
And you can do it too

Left right kare chain churaye
Tooh, too-tu-tooh-tooh, toonh, tooh-tooh tooh-tooh...
District mein hullad machaaye
Tooh, too-tu-tooh-tooh, toonh, tooh-tooh tooh-tooh...
All the boys go crazy when i shake that
Tooh, too-tu-tooh-tooh, toonh, tooh-tooh tooh-tooh...
Aashiqon ki linein lagwaye
Tooh, too-tu-tooh-tooh, toonh, tooh-tooh tooh-tooh...

Hoye aaj kal di kudiyan di ki koi limit naa
Ghodi chadh ke aayi vekho attitude ki maa
Kood-kood ke faand-faand ke entry maare haan
Dil de andar gidda paye, ticket kataye naa

There is no limit to girls of these days,
See, there is a mother of attitude riding a mare,
[Traditionally boys come riding a mare on their weddings.]
She enters all jumping and bouncing,
She dances Gidda dance inside my heart, without a ticket..

Hain thaath baat ke laale
Ho lallu ladke waale
Arey hat pare tu, chhod jagah tu
Main te nachna
Ho beat pe, repeat pe vajdi dholki
Everybody does it, and you can do it too

They lack all the pomp,
These guy's side people are unintelligent,
You move away, leave some space,
I have to dance,
The drums play on repeat, on the beat,
Everybody does it, and you can do it too

Left right kare chain churaaye
Tooh, too-tu-tooh-tooh, toonh, tooh-tooh tooh-tooh...
District mein hullad machaaye
Tooh, too-tu-tooh-tooh, toonh, tooh-tooh tooh-tooh...
All the boys go crazy when I shake that
Tooh, too-tu-tooh-tooh, toonh, tooh-tooh tooh-tooh...
Aashiqon ki linein lagwaye
Tooh, too-tu-tooh-tooh, toonh, tooh-tooh tooh-tooh...

Gori Tere Pyaar Mein: Trailer, Dialogs, Translation, Analysis

The trailer begins with Imran's ironic dialog. Ironic because it seems he talking to the Kareena's father in the film, while Kareena is shown to be 'different', and not Imran.

He says, "Mere Andar Bahut kuch hai, jo meri age ke ladkon mein nahi hai." That is, "There is a lot in me, that is not there in boys my age."

He continues with, "Mere Appa agar yahaan hote, wo kehte," (my father would say, had he been here-) and there is a footage of his father commenting on him, saying "Kaala Dhabba, family ke naam par kaala dhabba". That is, you're a black spot, on the name of our family.

"Jo bhi ho, mujh se do kadam aage hai aap ki beti", that is, "Whatever it is, your daughter is two steps ahead of me," comes next.



The next footage is Kareena in front of Bangalore's Freedom Park, where Anna Hazare's supporters gathered during his protests too. However, this is a generic protest, not mentioning Anna or anyone else.

Then there is a phrase written that reads, "The Hardcore Kraantee Queeen", that is, 'The hardcore revolution queen', kranti meaning revolution.

However, Kranti is written wrong here. It should be क्रांति, but they wrote क्रांती.

"Are sarkaar ne kahaa, yahaan anshan karna mana hai, kyonki yahaan bathroom nahi hai. Jab kuch khaaya hi nahi, to nikaalenge kya," Kareena is heard speaking, "The government said, we're not allowed to protest (by hunger strike) here, because there are no bathrooms here. But when we haven't eaten anything, what shall we excrete?"

Imran looks at her from the nearby cinema hall or some other 'Grand Opening', and gets impressed, falling in 'love at first sight,' subtitled as a story of Instant Pyaar - Instant Love.

And then, predictably, a song comes in. 'Gore gore naughty naughty round round toon..'

Pictures from Gori Tere Pyaar Mein

Kareena, who looked more funny than real in Freedom Park scene, gets a bit serious here, as she tells him that they are going to make a documentary on sex workers and their lives. The sex workers standing nearby ask Imran if he's interested, and he in turn asks Kareena for fun that they're sure they're not making THAT type of movie, talking about a pornographic movie, and Kareena replies 'Main tumhari izzat par koi aanch nahi aane dungi' - 'I will not let there be a blot on your honor' - as she joins the fun.

Everybody does it, and you can do it too. Left right kar chain chura.. is the next song.

And then, things get serious.

Kareena: I can't believe you're fighting me because I don't want to go to a tomatina festival. You know in our country...

Apparently, after Zindagi na Milegi Dobara, some people tried to recreate the tomatina festival of Spain in India, but were protested against on the grounds that we don't have enough to eat for many in India, and people are planning to waste huge amounts of food on the festival.

Imran: Country country Diya. You're not some Prime Minister. Live, and let live.

1. Diya is the character's name.
2. I disagree. Sometimes I feel our Prime Minister is much less worried about these things. So we need to be.
3. Jiyo aur Jeene do, Live and let live, is an old famous Indian quote.

In between, there is a placard saying 'A story of constant taqraar,' taqraar meaning verbal fight, altercation.

Then, some more dialogs pour into the trailer, as the two fight. This looks to be the serious most part of the movie. There is a dialog of Kareena, 'aaj ke baad main tumhe kabhi kuch nahi kahoongi' - 'I will never say a thing to you after today.'

As she leaves, he later goes to his parents and asks them if Diya is there. They tell him that she's in some village for past eleven months.

He's surprised. 'Gaaon mein? like a real village?' And then assures them that he'd bring her back. The way he says this with his bag in hand, it's pretty clear he's emulating Shahrukh Khan, poking a little fun on him by director. And then, he's in train, 'ye gondwa se jhumli kaise jaate hain?' - 'How do we go from Gondwa to Jhumli?' naming unknown villages.

And then, a fun song, the best in the trailer yet.

"O re Chhore, ghuma di kaise chaabi kismat ke hain taale khule.."

"O boy, what a key you have turned that the locks of fate have opened."

Here, Imran is shown reaching the village where Kareena is working, and his first reaction is of utter surprise as he utters to himself, 'bhencho..' - literally sisterfucker, but basically here to show his surprise, shock, the dawning on him how hard she was actually working.

Kareena: 'ye duniya ki sab se khoobsurat jagah hai' - This is the most beautiful place in the world.
Imran: 'To tum mere saath..' - 'So you'll not come with me?' Though the sentence was incomplete.
Kareena: Nahi. No.
Imran: Aur apni life yahan, is gaaon mein.. - And you'll live your life here, in this village?
Kareena: Haan. Yes.
Imran: Is gareebi aur gobar mein - In this poverty and cow dung?
Kareena: Haan. Yes.
Imran: Tumhara..

That is, your mind has rotten.

And then the song, "O ri chhori chhichhori o chhede hame chingam chaba ke.."

"O frivolous girl, you tease me while chewing a chewing gum."

Placard: The Hardcore Aashiq. The hardcore Lover.

Kareena: Tum yahaan dus din bhi nahi reh paoge. You'll not be able to live here for even ten days.

Placard: The Ultimate Pyaar. The Ultimate Love.

Imran: Reh Lunga. I'll live. Because this is the world's most beautiful place. And I love the smell of Gobar. that is dung.

Teashop owner: Bin mausam ki baarish dekh ke mazaa aa gaya. I loved this rain without rainy season.

Imran: Tum logon ko lagaan wali tension to nahi hai na? You guys don't have the issue as was there in Lagaan, right?

In Lagaan, there was no rain in the village for three years.

Teashop Owner: Nahi saab. No sir.

Imran: To itna khush kyon ho raha hai? Then why are you so happy?

With the rain, he means.

Kareena: Jaao yahaan se aur pakaao mat. Go from here and don't bore me.

Imran: Are dil de ke dar-e-mohabbat liya hai. Soch samajh ke ye sauda kiya hai. O Maine pyaar kiya hai, pyaar kiya hai, pyaar kiya hai.

That's the title track of Salman Khan's very famous film Maine Pyaar Kiya.

Kareena, from a dangling bridge, where Imran is afraid to go, says: O Salman Khan, kya huaa, aao na. O Salman Khan, what happened, why don't you come, teasing him. Also because Salman is supposed to do all kind of stunts in his films, while Imran here is afraid of going on the bridge she's on.

Overall, the trailer is interesting, and though Imran Khan gives the movie a standard rom-com feeling, and the beginning parts in the freedom park look like nothing serious, the latter parts of the movie seem much better, and Imran seems to be excelling in one scene, saying one word.. I hope you guessed.

Though the film comes from Punit Malhotra, whose last, I Hate Luv Storys, was nothing more than a very standard rom-com with a slightly interesting plot, this looks like a little better. One of the factors here being Kareena Kapoor, who seems to be easily outperforming Imran, which was not the case with Sonam. Hoping for a good movie this time. Not something legendary, but something on which the money spent will be worth.
