Glossary entry (derived from question below)
Hindi term or phrase:
भगम भग or भागम-भाग
English translation:
running helter skelter, fast paced living style, self-seeking competition
Hindi term
भगम भग
I think I've almost certainly got the Devanagari right (the English on my DVD is Bhagam Bhag but the Devanagari is not given); however, I'm not absolutely sure because the only film called भगम भग I've found was made in 2006 or something, and the film I have is a Bollywood classic in black and white starring Kishore Kumar, so it's well before 1980 or so, let alone 2006.
It is therefore possible, at least in theory, that one or more of the As may be long, for example.
Best wishes,
Simon

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.
