| English Dialogue | Hindi Adaptation | Localization Technique | |----------------|----------------|------------------------| | “I am Iron Man” | “Main hoon Iron Man” | Direct, iconic translation | | “Truth is… I am Iron Man” | “Sach ye hai ki… main hoon Iron Man” | Maintained dramatic pause | | “Tony Stark built this in a cave! With a box of scraps!” | “Tony Stark ne yeh gupha mein banaya! Kachre ke dibbe se!” | Preserved intensity and contempt | | Jarvis’ tech jargon | Simplified Hindi + English loanwords like “reaktor,” “suit” | Code-switching for authenticity |
