Talk:Awaara

Sorry Sunil

Sunil, I didn't think your edits were an improvement on the synopsis that we had, so I reverted them. I don't want to discourage you ... we need all the help we can get here. But it might be better if you worked on providing synopses for some of the other films that don't have any; then other people can copyedit your English. There are thousands of good Bollywood films with no entries and no synopses, so the field is wide open! Zora 07:20, 19 March 2006 (UTC)

WikiProject class rating

This article was automatically assessed because at least one WikiProject had rated the article as start, and the rating on other projects was brought up to start class. BetacommandBot 17:22, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

title

Why does the article title have 2 A's between the W and R, when the poster has only one? I also have a DVD that shows it with only 1 A. BollyJeff || talk 19:04, 16 January 2012 (UTC)

Importance rating

Shouldn't it be at least mid-importance? It's one of the classic films and all, if you know what I mean. Fireblazex3 (talk) 13:48, 16 March 2012 (UTC)

• Awara (1951 film) → Awaara (1951 film)
• Awara Hoon → Awaara Hoon

– In the English-speak world (WP:NCF), Awāra becomes Awaara.[1] You can spell it with the accent or with the double "A", but not a single "A" without the accent. Same reason Baahubali: The Beginning is titled that way, among others. The 2012 film is actually called Awara, and has to be disambiguated from other uses. WP:COMMONNAME also supports these three moves. Film Fan 00:46, 12 December 2015 (UTC)--Relisted. Tiggerjay (talk) 00:19, 20 December 2015 (UTC)

• Comment: I've now updated the proposal (fixed 1st, removed 3rd) to reflect early consensus, 70.51.44.60, In ictu oculi, Lugnuts. Film Fan 11:20, 12 December 2015 (UTC)
• Oppose "2012" move; I oppose moving the 2012 film. "Awāra" is transcropted a number of ways, one of them includes "Awara" by simple stripping of diacritics, so the 2012 film should not be moved. There are also multiple films listed at the disambiguation page Awara -- 70.51.44.60 (talk) 06:04, 12 December 2015 (UTC)
• Oppose as proposed "1951" move; I think Awaara should redirect to the disambiguation page, so if the film is moved it should go to Awaara (1951 film) -- 70.51.44.60 (talk) 06:10, 12 December 2015 (UTC)
• Oppose first and third move. As a variant Awaara should redirect to the Awara disambiguation page. If the 1951 film is moved it should go to Awaara (1951 film), the 2012 film should stay put. In ictu oculi (talk) 09:42, 12 December 2015 (UTC)

No particular opinion on the song, it is transcribed both ways in Google Books I would have thought आवारा हूँ should be Aavaara huun. Which Hindi romanization system does en.wp favour? In ictu oculi (talk) 09:52, 12 December 2015 (UTC)

• Oppose First + third per In ictu oculi. Lugnuts ^{Dick Laurent is dead} 10:12, 12 December 2015 (UTC)

• Relisting comment: Relisting to receive consensus regarding revised request. Film Fan updated the proposal at 11:20, 12 December 2015 (UTC) and since then there has been no specific discussion. Tiggerjay (talk) 00:19, 20 December 2015 (UTC)
