Meaning of hindi word dabang/dabangg

The official English released title of the movie may be fearless, though that is not the appropriate translation of the hindi word. Dabangg would translate to something like spunk with arrogance. Pls someone figure a way out to address this —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.102.161.210 (talk) 02:43, 9 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Removed The claim "the promo is the most watched video in internet"

It is not realistic that a bollywood movie trailor will become the most watched video in "internet", just 9 hours after it got publishged. The source in reference (thaindian.com) does not seem to be a valid one. Also, the article itself suggests it is the most watched video "in a popular web portal", without suggesting a name.Viswamchn (talk) 09:02, 26 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Plot

The plot has been copied from a news article. Can someone please re-write the plot in their own words. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sansari13 (talkcontribs) 13:14, 12 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Any help would be appreciated regarding the plot. For those who have seen the film, please write a concise summary in a neutral tone. Please see WP:PLOTSUM for details. — Managerarc[Talk] 21:56, 26 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
At the moment there is absolutely nothing that even says what this movie is about... even a 3 line plot summary would be great for a start... 84.196.55.232 (talk) 15:42, 1 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Dear lord, this plot summary is horrendously written. If I'd seen the movie, I might even fix it myself. As it stands, it's terrible. (Why is this the case with so many Indian movie articles? Right, because nobody editing the English Wikipedia knows much about them :/) --V2Blast (talk) 06:35, 7 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • I agree with V2Blast. It was worse than horrendous. I saw the film and re-wrote the plot, in a neutral tone and as accurately as possible. But, if I have made any grammatical mistake or have misspelled a word, anyone is welcome to correct them. Halemane (talk) 17:54, 10 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
