Does anyone know what the words to the Thuggee chant are in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom? If you know Hindi, then please watch chapter 18 of the DVD and let me know. The IMDB says that “Kali Ma shakti de” means “spiritual power of Mother Kali”, but that’s all I have so far.
And What does Molderamm Scuderam mean?
Just a quick correction; it means “Mother Kali give me strength” . Individual word meaning are…
Kali - Kali
Ma - Mother
shakti - strength, power
de - give
The Molderaam scuderam is just nonsense.
Is it possible the cultists are saying something more like “Mola Ram scuderam?”
Makes more sense, being that Mola Ram is the head cultist.
I always thought it was Mola Ram, Suday Ram, phonetically speaking, of course. At least, that’s what my brother and I would chant at my mother to make her mad.
