HTML input file - how to translate "Choose File" and "No file Chosen"?

html django filechooser

I know that these two words get automatically translated, due to the browser language. But my HTML is not doing that.

HTML:

<p>
  <label for="id_company_logo">
     Company Logo:
  </label>
  <input type="file" name="company_logo" id="id_company_logo" />
</p>

It is generated from following "form" code of django:

company_logo = forms.ImageField(label=_('Company Logo'),required=False, error_messages = {'invalid':_("Image files only")}, widget=forms.FileInput)

Am I doing anything wrong? I searched around for some time now, but I had absolutely no luck.

Thanks in advance.
