The study highlights the importance of culturally sensitive subtitling in enhancing accessibility. While the Athiran subtitles demonstrate a good understanding of the original dialogue, some cultural references and expressions were not adequately conveyed. This oversight may lead to a disconnection from the cultural context, potentially affecting the viewing experience for non-Malayalam speaking audiences. athiran english subtitles
The study's findings can be applied to other regional films and languages, promoting accessibility and cultural exchange.
