Uunchai’s Arre Oh Uncle Hindi Lyrics English Meaning
Irshad Kamil contrasts a 65-year-old man acting like a teenager, swapping prayer beads for gym workouts. The line ‘Fiat body mein Ferrari engine’ emphasizes the disconnect between his age and youthful aspirations.
Arre Oh Uncle Nazar Mein TwinkleHey there, Uncle, with a twinkle in your eye,
Jawani Ke Tu Peeche Peeche Bhaage ReYou’re chasing after your lost youth.
Arre Oh Uncle Hua Kyun ChanchalHey there, Uncle, why’ve you become so restless?
Zara Sa Kyun Tu Satka Satka Laage ReWhy’ve you started acting a little bit crazy?
Arre Oh Uncle Pade Hain WrinkleHey there, Uncle, you’ve got wrinkles,
Nadi Mein Jaise Lehrein Soye Jaage ReJust like waves waking and sleeping in a river.
Kacchi Si Umar Ke ArmaanDesires belonging to a younger age,
Dekho Dekho Pakki SiLook, look, in your ripe age,
Umar Mein Jaage ReThey’ve finally woken up.
65 Ka Chhokra 16 Ka Ho ChalaThis sixty-five-year-old boy’s acting like he’s sixteen,
Body Shody Dole Shole ReBuilding up his body and his muscles.
65 Ka Chhokra 16 Ka Ho ChalaThis sixty-five-year-old boy’s acting like he’s sixteen,
Body Shody Dole Shole ReBuilding up his body and his muscles.
Japni Thi Mala Kasrat Ko Lo ChalaHe was supposed to chant prayers, but he’s off to exercise,
Body Shody Dole Shole ReBuilding up his body and his muscles.
65 Ka Chhokra 16 Ka Ho ChalaThis sixty-five-year-old boy’s acting like he’s sixteen,
Body Shody Dole Shole ReBuilding up his body and his muscles.
Yeh Fiat Body Mein Ferrari EngineThis is like a Ferrari engine in a Fiat body.
Na Fit Ho Na Hit Ho Sapnon Ki Limit HoIt won’t fit or be a hit; there’s a limit to dreams.
Yeh Kis Ullu Ne Hai Batlaya ReWhich ‘fool’ was the one who told you this?
Yeh Taanpure Pe Yeh Guitar BajanaThis is like playing a guitar on a ‘tanpura’ -traditional lute-.
Namumkin Namumkin Ho Kadha Ho CrocinIt’s impossible, whether it’s ‘herbal tea’ or ‘painkillers’.
Ab Inn Sabse Bhagawan Bachaye ReNow may God save us from all of this.
Arre Oh Uncle Shehar Hai JungleHey there, Uncle, the city is a jungle,
Yahan Sab Ek Dooje Ke Peeche Bhaage ReWhere everyone’s chasing after one another.
Kacchi Si Umar Ke ArmaanDesires belonging to a younger age,
Dekho Dekho Pakki Si Umar Mein Jaage ReLook, look, they’ve woken up in your ripe age.
65 Ka Chhokra 16 Ka Ho ChalaThis sixty-five-year-old boy’s acting like he’s sixteen,
Body Shody Dole Shole ReBuilding up his body and his muscles.
65 Ka Chhokra 16 Ka Ho ChalaThis sixty-five-year-old boy’s acting like he’s sixteen,
Body Shody Dole Shole ReBuilding up his body and his muscles.
Japni Thi Mala Kasrat Ko Lo ChalaHe was supposed to chant prayers, but he’s off to exercise,
Body Shody Dole Shole ReBuilding up his body and his muscles.
65 Ka Chhokra 16 Ka Ho ChalaThis sixty-five-year-old boy’s acting like he’s sixteen,
Body Shody Dole Shole ReBuilding up his body and his muscles.
