It analyzes the film’s cultural translation during dubbing, localization strategies, audience reception in Hindi-speaking markets, and legal and ethical considerations around dubbing and distribution. Using comparative film analysis, reception studies, and translation theory, the paper argues that dubbing functions not only to bridge language barriers but also to reframe humor, identity, and cultural references—sometimes producing a distinct work with its own meanings for local audiences.
