The Athiran English subtitles demonstrate a good level of accuracy and technical quality, but there is room for improvement in terms of cultural sensitivity. This study emphasizes the need for subtitlers to balance fidelity to the original dialogue with cultural adaptation, ensuring that regional cinema reaches a broader audience without compromising its cultural essence. The findings of this study can inform best practices in subtitling, ultimately enhancing the accessibility and global reach of regional films like Athiran.
