Nargis Fakhri’s dialogues get subtitled in Madras Cafe

Initially,the idea was to let Nargis Fakhri and her character of the war correspondent speak in English.

While we were still rejoicing in the news that Nargis Fakhri would be speaking in her own voice in Madras Cafe,all her dialogues would be subtitled in Hindi.

Apparently,the original idea was to just …you know…let her have her say in the language that she and her character of the war correspondent are comfortable in.

Then came along Chennai Express where Deepika Padukone spoke a lot of Tamil,without subtitles. Most viewers,even those who loved the film,cribbed about the excess of indecipherable Tamil in the film.

Confirming this director Shoojit Sircar says,”Nargis will speak in English. All her dialogues would be accompanied by Hindi subtitles.”
