Hindi to Bengali: Translate a Video (বাংলা)

Put Bengali subtitles on a Hindi video. Naming the spoken language matters more here than anywhere: our own testing found most Bengali speech heard as Hindi, and the two are close enough to be confused in either direction. With Hindi set, the Hindi is written as Hindi and the Bengali is a translation of it. Free, no sign-up.

How to translate a Hindi video into Bengali

1

Choose the Hindi video

Drop or pick an MP4, MOV or WebM. The spoken language is already set to Hindi.

2

Let AI write and translate

What is said is written down as Hindi, then every line is translated into Bengali and kept in time with the speech.

3

Fix anything misheard

Names and technical terms are where it slips. Edit those lines before you export.

4

Export or burn in

Download an SRT or VTT, or make a video with the Bengali drawn into the picture.

How Hindi becomes Bengali

The Hindi is written down with the language named, then translated into Bengali and written in Bengali script. Hindi and Bengali share a lot of vocabulary and both descend from Sanskrit, which is exactly why a detector confuses them — and why naming the language is worth more on this pair than on a pair that sounds nothing alike.

Bengali's conjunct letters make some lines taller than the Hindi they replace. The subtitle box grows to fit rather than clipping, and the line keeps the time the Hindi occupied.

Features

The pair a detector gets wrong

Most Bengali in our testing was heard as Hindi. Naming the spoken language removes that failure from the first step.

Bengali script, properly rendered

Conjuncts and the inherent vowel are written as Bengali writes them, and the line grows to fit rather than clipping.

Shared words still translated

Hindi and Bengali share vocabulary; the translation handles the words that look alike but differ in use.

Frequently asked questions

Is this Bengali for West Bengal or for Bangladesh?

Standard Bengali, which is read in both and is what news and teaching use. Where a word differs across the border, edit that line before exporting; your edit goes into the SRT and into the burned-in video.

Why pick this page instead of the general Bengali translator?

Because the spoken language is already set to Hindi here. On Auto-detect our own testing found Indian languages regularly heard as the wrong one — Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam and Punjabi were misheard on every clip we tried, and most Bengali was heard as Hindi. With Hindi named, the speech is written down as Hindi and only then translated into Bengali, which is the difference between a usable subtitle file and one you rewrite by hand.

Is the video uploaded?

No. Only the sound is sent to be written down, and only the text to be translated; neither is kept. The picture never leaves your device, and a video with the subtitles drawn in is put together there.
