“Want to go to the disc?”
It’s the time to disc? I thought so, but in the few minutes since posting this I have been told by multiple people that “disc” is Delhi parlance. So this one must be ignorant-and-probably-paagal viewer instead!

“Bill Gates, look. I am doing this foe her.”
Yo! Fo sho, bro!
This screengrab is from the Netflix on-demand version of this film, which has quite a few subtitling errors (“there” for “their,” that kind of thing) and no subs on the songs. Thumbs down. It’s a disservice to a very good film.

“He is not what is he is.”
Is this one of those psychology tests that reveals your attitudes by how you punctuate it? For example, put punctuation into the following sequence of words: woman without her man is nothing. Some people do “Woman: without her, man is nothing” and others do “Woman, without her man, is nothing.”
Let’s try it!
My brain hurts.

Yet more from the “not technically paagal because they make sense and are even in context but still snigger-inducing” files:
“Why? Don’t you like cocks?”
“You seem to love asses.” “–No, I hate them.”
Oh to write the dialogue that connects these two scenes. Do your worst in the comments.

“My cocks don’t like talkative people. They get disturbed.”

![“I reached Mrs. Sonia’s house. Some of her maid opened the door.”
Yes, but how MUCH of the maid? And which PARTS? Remember: You are under oath!
[Beth says: Dismembered yet animate domestic help? Wow!]

“I’ve lost my sleep ever since I saw your flashes.”
I honestly do not know what this means. Flesh? Fluttering eyelashes? Chest hair, since he runs around in a fancy little vest and no shirt?
(Okay, so maybe it just means “flashes of you,” as in “glimpses of you,” but I like my suggestions better.)

“So, what the hell is he gonna do with this skull cap?”
I can tell you this much: if I were the princess in an Arabian Nights-style fantasy film and handmaidens talked to me like that, heads would roll.

”..in the royal restroom along with her maids.”
The previous shot shows the princess bathing in a big pool. Bath –> bathing room –> bathroom –> restroom? Close but totally wrong.
