Don't know about any such software but you may want to look at Subtitles - DivX Movies. Subtitulos, Podnapisi, legendas, subtitrari
Or you may try creating subtitles on your own. Use google translator for Translating. Not sure whether this will actually work.

Why so?? After getting the English Subtitles he can easily convert it in one shot using Google Translator.
^^ Well, I tried that. ( I just wanted to hear the answer from the OP) 
I converted an English subtitle file (.srt) through Google translator and copied the converted data to another .srt file. And tried running the video with the new subtitle file. Result, all text comes as, ????????? ?? ?????.
So here is the little research I made to find out the reason: (it may be technical).
Normal .srt file is in ANSI format. But when I tried to save the converted file as .srt file in notepad, it said, I would have to save it as Unicode file, since the ANSI standard doesn't support hindi characters.
Now IMO, VLC is not able to read Unicode characters, so it displays the characters as "?" marks. I tried changing various settings pertaining to Subtitles in VLC, but all in vain.
So, I think, we need a player, that supports Unicode subtitle reading. And the problem would be solved.

i think that main thing is u need to have that font installed in ur pc. well first i tried to translate with google and other translator but when i copied and pasted it my subtitle file it showed blank==no subtitle(only happens in win 7 in xp it shows blocks and "????")
thn i came to know that translated font is "aparajita.ttf" so tried to search for it in win 7 but it was hidden due to copyright protection so i downloaded and installed aparajita.ttf and overwrite it and tried the above process and instead of blocks , blanks and ????? it showed me correct subtitle but now the prob. arises tht i need bttr translator than google coz it is nt possible to translate all the phrases with correct meanings and feelings.........! hope u understand!!!!!!!!!!!:

Well, in my case, video still shows question marks, even after installing that font. And I am using XP. Will check in Win 7 later.
As far as "Good translater" is concerned, I greatly doubt if any would be available better than Google translater.
Any translater which is essentially just a software program, just can't translate in any language with 100% correct meanings and feelings. Its not possible for at least our current advancement in technology.
If you can't find the original subtitle, your best bet is to manually correct the errors, which can seem a daunting task at first, but don't think would be that difficult.
Also, I request the mods to shift this thread to Software Problem thread, since its a software problem, and needs to be rectified with proper diligence and experimentation.

LOL nice hinglish talk. 
Well I tried this 1 year ago and when all got in vain then I started to watch English movies with English subtitles and its pretty much easy to watch and understand. I don't know why you guys trying so hard for this.

Its not about the result. I don't think, I would Ever watch anything with Hindi subtitle, with only these exceptions:
1. Forget English
2. Remember English, but forget to read
3. If there's no subtitle in English, but is in hindi, and the show is in some foreign lanaguage.
Don't know about OP, but, its the challenge, which is compelling me, to find a solution. It's about solving the problem!

Well good luck with that. You know the problem is that Hindi is not so popular language in world so the development for translators for Hindi is also not that good. I mean many times translators translate something which has nothing to do with the given text and I don't blame anyone for that. I mean most programmer who can improvise those translators don't give a damn because they are good with English and knows very well that this would be of very little use.
but completely 
Although Google Translater does the job fairly well. But it can't be perfect. Can it?
So, the main problem is not that, there's no good translater, but this that, no one's bothered to rectify the mistakes which the translater have introduced, because its of little value to them since they are good in English.
