Karishma is 9 years older than Kareena and Kareena calls her by her name. Thats so against Indian culture. Why doesnt she give respect to Karishma? Discuss.

First of Karisma is 6 years older than her. NOT 9. Second thing, who cares, nobody refers to me as didi as well, beside I find it funny when grown bollywood actors refer to their siblings as didi.. Hrithik for example, calls his sister didi instead of baby elephant 🤢

In Indian culture we address people we dont even know respectfully. Like someone who seems little sernior is called Didi/Bhaiyya and otherwise uncle/aunty. Whole of Bengal calls CM Mamata as Mamata didi.

I thought this was a serious thread then I realized it wasn't by Nkapoor. 😆

Karisma is 6 years older than Kareena not 9 FYI.

ksh: Indian culture varies by region as well as changes with time.

My sister is nearly six years younger to me and she has always called me by my name/nickname. Simularily, my cousins who are several years older than me have always been referred to as their first names.

It is not a sign of disrespect, but changing social norms, convenience, and at times even affection and a symbol of closeness.
