I need to know if this movie exists.

Hi everybody,

I'm gonna keep this story as short and straight to the point as possible, but I need help figuring out if this movie is real or not. Two years ago today I had woken up at 4 am to this random movie on my tv, it was my freshmen year of college and I had a really rough time so my sleep schedule was messed up. Now to get into the movie, I know this will sound crazy but anyone remember Nacho Libre? It was one of my favorite childhood movies. Besides the point, when I woke up it was almost a knock off version if that makes sense? It was a complete Indian version of the movie, different language and everything. The only reason I knew what it was, was because I recognized the scene and saw Ignacios name in the captions.

I know some people are probably gonna say, "Oh you were probably half-asleep" or "Maybe you just imagined it". But I fully remember being fully sat up and confused by what was on the TV. What was the creepiest part though is that when I came back after using the restroom, it was completely gone and was just on my Roku TV screen. Again I know I will probably sound crazy but I swear this is something that happened to me AND I NEED HELP!

I mean, there’s an Indian remake of Forest Gump, is a foreign knock off of Nacho Libre so hard to imagine?

Nacho libre was a "remake" of The Man in the Golden Mask.

DU-UUUUUDE! That's SO FUCKED UP that it sounds like something that would happen to ME!!!

Wish I could help you; however, I've never seen "Nacho Libre".

Perhaps you inadvertently came across a Bollywood version of the movie?

Now, don't get it twisted, Baby, but it alsomight've been a waking dream... y'know, one of those dreams that is SO fucking powerful and real-life seeming that almost NOTHING could dissuade you from thinking that it wasanything else but the "real" thing...

Hey, seriously, maybe you briefly slipped in and out of a parallel universe. I could tell you some shit concerning THAT scenario.

I dunno. Jus' sayin'.

Hope you find out.

Check out the Bollywood catalog... Who knows? Maybe the fucker is there!?
