niveditha's blog: October 2013

No serious business here folks! Am just continuing the series of party games. Out of the different party games, theme parties and various versions of Tambola, the most searched and viewed party games on my blog are the ones related to Bollywood.

Yes, we are obsessed with Bollywood, no doubt. May be that's the reason which inspired me to form a Bollywood based Tambola even where each number calling is a movie name or a song containing that number.

The game which am talking about today, is a simple game of translation. The English translation of the song is given and you have to identify the actual song. Check out some of these funny translations and enjoy this game in your next party or gathering.

You can display the song on a projector for a group game or get the songs printed on a paper for individual participants.

Check out some of the interesting songs...

1. Sometimes in my heart, there comes a thought, as if you were made only for me...

(Kabhie kabhie mere dil mein, khayal aata hai, ki jaise tujhko banaya gaya hai mere lite...)

2. I was passing by, I was eating bhelpuri, if you felt hot, what can I do...

(Mein to raste se jaa raha tha, mein to bhel puri kha raha tha, tujhko mirchi lagi to mein kya Karun...)

3. One hot teacup and somebody to serve it...

(Ek garam chai ki pyali ho, koi use pilane wali ho...)

4. This friendship, we shall never break, we could give up our lives for the companionship's sake...

(He dosti ham nahi chodenge, chodenge dam magar tera saath na chodenge...)

5. Use your heart to light your smoke dear, the heart is full of fire..

(Beedi jalaile jigar se piya, jigar ma badi aag hai...)

You can get the access to the complete set of songs here.
