This paper examines the function and impact of Sinhala subtitles on the reception of Aanand L. Rai’s Hindi film Raanjhanaa (2013) among Sinhala-speaking audiences in Sri Lanka. While Bollywood films enjoy significant popularity in Sri Lanka, the linguistic and cultural transfer through subtitling remains understudied. Using Raanjhanaa —a film deeply rooted in the cultural and political landscape of North India (Varanasi and Tamil Nadu)—as a case study, this paper analyzes how Sinhala subtitles mediate cultural specificity, political references, and emotional nuances. The study employs a qualitative analysis of key scenes and their subtitle translations, supplemented by audience reception theory. Preliminary findings suggest that while Sinhala subtitles successfully convey the core narrative, they often simplify or omit culturally specific terms (e.g., caste-based slurs, religious idioms) and political commentary (e.g., references to Hindu-Muslim tensions, Tamil nationalism). This results in a selective translation that prioritizes romantic melodrama over socio-political critique, thus shaping Sri Lankan viewers’ interpretation of the film as primarily a love story rather than a political allegory.
