Bollywood filmmakers have always been at their creative best to zero on the titles of their films. Creativity to our Indian filmmakers means imagination with no bounds.

Wonder, why a title like Kaminey raised certain eyebrows, when our oldies [filmmakers] got away with the best cheesiest and slangiest titles ever! Let's peep into the past and pick up those tacky titles out of the lot, titles that are often used in real-life to tease people.

Well we are sure these films were never pulled up for so much of grilling before the release!

Awaara: Raj Kapoor's genre of cinema-oozed oodles of love sparks all over. Awaara undisputedly was one of his masterpieces with a perfect blend of romance. Awaara doesn't come across a nice word in the Indian culture.

If one goes by the literal meaning it means an aimless jerk. However, surprisingly, Awaara didn't receive brickbats for its title.

Junglee: Another talented Kapoor played a phenomenal character of a Junglee who is head-over-heels in love with the ever-beautiful Saira Banu. The word Junglee too brings a negative trait of a character in literal terms. Junglee means ill mannered or wild. Wonder, why weren't fingers pointed-out then when the maker Subodh Mukherjee inked upon this title.

Namak Haram: Super-star Amitabh Bachchan was at the peak of his career. And, Namak Haram brought in another feather on the already over-loaded cap of Big B. The word was whole-heartedly accepted by one and all, which literally translated would mean- biting the hand that feeds, Interesting!

Batameez: Manmohan Desai's Batameez showcased the female protagonist with a negative trait. Yes, actress Sadhana did full justice to the ill-mannered spoilt brat of Shanta's character.

Again, the film's title did not go through any scrutiny because of the unconventional and controversial title, which means ill mannered.
