Hindi Translation Of Dosa ‘Batter’ As Dosa ‘Ballebaaz’ Sparks Hilarious Reactions On Twitter
Translation from one language to another language can be done properly only by that person who has the knowledge of both the languages otherwise mistakes or sometimes blunders can happen that can lead to serious or occasionally hilarious outcome.
The packets of almost all the products contain details of the product in both Hindi and English languages and the same was the case with this packet of dosa batter. However, it seems that the person who was responsible for the translation was not much aware of the Hindi language and he/she might have taken help from the Internet.

The South Indian dish Dosa is a favourite of a large number of Indians and due to its ever-increasing popularity, few companies have come up with instant dosa mix or even batter in which people don’t need to be panic about making preparations and they can enjoy tasty dosas at home whenever they want to.
The Hindi word for batter is “Ghol” but the term written for batter in this company’s packet is “Ballebaaz” which is related to the cricket world and refers to batsman in the English language.
Take a look:
This funny translation mistake on the packet of dosa batter has left netizens in splits and this gave enough fodder to Indian Twitterati who started making jokes and memes on this situation.
