Uninvited Design: Hollywood in Meiteilon
Do you know the Hindi channel which broadcast only dubbed movies? UTV Action?

This is a collection of graphics created out of the love for language and Photoshop. The Godfather cannot be a Laipa, which is a transliteration of the original title but I have tried to retain, except again in Nymphomaniac and Peeping Tom, the exact meaning of the names. From the lot, the Leirang Amasoong Lamsha is the best wrt the title. In a way, these are not film posters but an illustration of the titles.
