Hindi subtitles

Translate video to Hindi with the subtitles built in

Upload a video in any language, pick Hindi (हिन्दी), and download it with the subtitles burned in. Hindi tracks English closely in length, but the script needs more vertical room per line.

What you get back

  • Your video as an MP4 with the Hindi subtitles burned into the picture, so they play everywhere without a separate file.
  • A Hindi SRT file you can upload wherever soft subtitles are supported.
  • An SRT in the original spoken language, so you have both sides of the translation.
  • Plain TXT transcripts of both, for show notes, blog posts, or search.

How Hindi subtitles get made

  1. Add your video

    Upload an MP4, MOV, AVI, or MKV file, or paste a link from a supported source.

  2. Choose Hindi

    The speech is transcribed in whatever language it was spoken, then translated into Hindi.

  3. Download the result

    You get the video with Hindi subtitles burned in, plus SRT and TXT files for both languages.

What is different about Hindi subtitles

Hindi tracks English closely in length, but the script needs more vertical room per line.

  • Devanagari joins consonants into conjunct clusters drawn as a single shape. Burning in after the text is shaped keeps those clusters whole.
  • A headstroke runs along the top of the line and vowel signs hang above and below it, so Hindi lines need more height than Latin lines at the same size.
  • Everyday spoken Hindi mixes in a lot of English. A good translation keeps the loanwords people actually say rather than forcing a formal equivalent nobody uses.

Formality in Hindi

आप is the respectful form and the safe default for anything published.

Frequently asked questions

Can I get Hindi subtitles on a video that is not in Hindi?

Yes, that is the normal case. The speech is transcribed in whatever language it was spoken, and the transcript is translated into Hindi. You do not have to tell it what the source language is.

Do I get a Hindi subtitle file as well as the video?

Yes. Every job returns the video with subtitles burned in, plus SRT and TXT files for both the original language and Hindi, so you can reuse the Hindi text elsewhere.

Will Devanagari characters render correctly in the video?

Yes. Subtitles are burned into the picture after the text has been shaped and laid out, so what you see in the editor is what ends up in the MP4. Devanagari renders correctly in the finished file.

Can I fix the Hindi wording before I download?

Yes, on the Pro and Studio plans. You can edit the text and timings in the subtitle editor, trim the clip, and reburn before downloading.
