When I use a Malayalam (a very popular south Indian language) srt file with VLC (UTF-8 + Malayalam font in preferences) for Ubuntu 16.04, the subtitles are displayed. But not correctly. Certain joint symbols break giving an awful, unenjoyable subtitle display. Please check the screen shots:

On a Sunday afternoon in 2012, I tried to watch the 'critically acclaimed' Punjabi film Anhe Ghore Da Daan (Alms to a Blind Horse) at a screening in Delhi, at Siri Fort Auditorium. Either the print was bad or the film was shot in dim light or the plot was too sleepy. maybe I was too impatient and tired and couldn't follow the Punjabi. Whatever the reason, my former colleague and I walked out. So much for culture - or loyalty to one's Punjabi roots.Since then, most Indian movies I have watched have been in Hindi, partly because of my one high-horse assumption that subtitles of regional cinema are quite awful. 'Bye-bye, syntax; bye-bye, nuance' sort of a thing.Circa 2018. Over the weekend, a colleague invited some people over for a movie marathon at her place. The plan was to start at noon and work our way through a Tamil, Malayalam and Bengali film: OK, Kanmani (Tamil), Iti Mrinalini (Bengali), Bangalore Days (Malayalam).OK, Kanmani was alright. A little too conflict-free for my taste, but I was happy to have been introduced to the actor Dulquer Salmaan (good actor, nice voice!). It was a reminder also to immerse myself in Mani Ratnam's earlier work, in the languages he filmed those movies in. But again, my main problem with the movie: the subtitles. The quality seemed fine, but that eight second lag.I couldn't stay for the final movie, Bangalore Days, as I had to make it in time for the Hindi film Karwaan. Maybe if I hadn't already booked tickets, I might have stayed for Bangalore Days. I'm told it was the best.As I walked out of my colleague's darkened living room-turned-cinema of the day, I realised how, by not watching enough regional Indian cinema, I had turned into one stereotype of a north Indian yuppie. Seriously. I can't remember the last Indian subtitled movie I saw after that Blind Horse fiasco. Alright, one exception: I watched the Marathi film Ventilator on a flight back to Delhi in March this year (Phew! Five points to me). But largely, I am embarrassed at my cultural oversights. They seem to me a manifestation of a disloyalty of sorts - as if I am incurious about my Indian roots. I wouldn't want this to be true, especially not for the pretentiousness it would indicate.I watch enough foreign cinema - with subtitles. I can remember films from other countries that I have sneaked out of office early for (Asghar Farhadi's The Salesman; I was so surprised it was playing at Ibn Battuta!) I enjoy not restricting myself to the stuff churned out by Hollywood. And yet, in holding a mirror up, I couldn't escape the glaring reflection of my cultural choices, that seemed to call for some course correction.I don't want to be the person who restricts herself to Bollywood. And yet, never in my years in Dubai had I watched a Malayalam film (before this weekend)- and they play here in cinemas all the time! I thought of reasons (excuses, rather) for this blinkered behaviour. And there's no meat there, all just inadequate, silly excuses better left off the page.This year, on the big screen, even when it comes to Hindi films, I can remember having watched only Raazi and October. I like to not throw away money on what my gut tells me will be rubbish - even if it's in my mother tongue. But like an admonished school child, I intend to remedy my oversight by downloading or streaming Bangalore Days immediately. And by going to watch Koode this week. It's, as they say, playing at a cinema near me.-nivriti@khaleejtimes.com

Apart from the incredible craft of fillmakers Lijo Jose Pellissery or Rajiv Ravi, amazing subtitles that accompany these movies too play a significant role in making Malayalam cinema popular among the non-Malayali audience. With 75 movies to his credit, that too within just three years, Vivek Ranjith, hailing from Kochi, is already a veteran in subtitling. Vivek talks about the role of subtitles in giving an international appeal to the regional cinema and also about the challenges in this unique field.

When I came into this field, subtitles were given for only a handful of movies, that too when the individual films were submitted for film festivals or awards. But this trend has changed significantly and I have done the subtitles of about 36 movies last year. This year I have completed 16 movies so Kunjiramayanam was one of the first movies which hit the screens with my subtitles. When that movie got released, I was in Bangalore. I realised from the responses of the audience at the theatre that the subtitles played a crucial role in conveying the plot and theme of the movie without losing its emotional content and originality. I then tried to make the directors and producers realise the scope of releasing their movies with subtitles. Most of them were open to the idea and their responses were overwhelming.

The most significant point to be kept in mind when you are doing the subtitles is that the movie is not a space to flaunt your skills in the English language. The success of a subtitlist lies not in including difficult words or complex jargons, but to enable the movie communicate with the audience using simple language. A subtitle has many limitations; ideas should be communicated within minutes. So I always try to communicate using minimum words. I make sure that there are no grammatical mistakes in the subtitles. Errors in spelling or typos can be rectified using software. I usually adopt different writing style for each movie as per the nature of it.

It indeed is a bit arduous to convey a comedic scene or a local slang without losing its originality or distinctive quality. But what I find particularly challenging is translating the lyrics of the songs. It is very difficult to recreate some of the most beautiful lines written in Malayalam. In fact my mother helps me in translating many of the songs. I try to find idioms and popular sayings in other languages which may deliver the same meaning as a Malayalam comedy or slang, and also include usages which connect clearly with the people of a particular area. For instance, when a popular movie villain like 'Kolappulli Appan' is referred to in a movie, he can be replaced by 'Gabbar Singh', a villain known to the whole country. In the recent past the two movies which I found extremely difficult to write the subtitles were for Poomaram and Kammara Sambhavam. In Kammara Sambhavam, the language has to maintain a serious tone and at the same time give importance to spoof.

I never had any role models in this field. My biggest strength is the experiences that I gain from every movie. I didn't even hire anybody to assist me in writing the subtitles. I have had the opportunity to prepare subtitles for some of the most talented filmmakers. The distinctive making style of each filmmaker is really inspiring for me. These movies have also helped me hone my skills as a writer. Some directors would completely trust me and use the subtitles that I have made even without reading it. Directors like Lijo Jose Pellisery, Vineeth Sreenivasan, Syam Pushkaran and Murali Gopi would spend some time to read the subtitles and often suggest some creative changes.

It is in Chennai that theatres screen subtitled movies frequently, especially Sathyam theatre, which show movies by giving prominence for subtitles. In North India, theatres show a laxity in downloading the subtitles and screening it along with the films. Often subtitled versions are shown after continuous calls are made to them. I wish the subtitled version of a movie was screened in Kerala, at least, for one show per week. This formula has been tested successfully in Chennai. There are hundreds of migrant workers who stay in Kerala, and I am sure that this formula will help to motivate them to enjoy Malayalam movies as well. If subtitled version is screened every day at theatres, then it will be insipid for the Malayali audience. But it would be really helpful for the industry if a subtitled version is screened for one show per week. Unfortunately, the post-production works like editing and mixing of 80% of Malayalam movies are completed only a day before the release. I have even made subtitles for movies within just one or two days; but I think it would be ideal if a subtitlist gets at least two weeks to write the subtitle.

VLC subtitles not showing. I'm trying to watch this soft subbed anime and subtitle words are not showing fine(show squares). But videos play fine with subtitles on other players, but not VLC? - from VideoLAN Forum
