Most of the people who ever suffered from mental health problems dislike the word pagal to great extent. I have noticed this.
Apart from this, we north indians use this word very casually but south indians also have an issue with this world pagal. Because most south indians dont speak hindi.....they have other regional languages and they take literal meaning of the word. Agar log uske literal meaning mein jayenge toh yes pagal is an offensive word. But when people usually say pagal....they dont mean it scientifically and medically. I dont know if i made sense but i am trying to explain ki 'pagal' can be an offensive word.
Hey,
Yeah I also noticed that. I also noticed that people who are actually suffering from mental issues also hate this word Paagal.
Yes, I'm getting you. I have some of very close bonds with south Indian friends and they hardly know hindi like only 20%....so they take these words seriously. But since we have better understanding of each other, so we clear everything with discussion. ❤️ But of course they don't react like Eijaz does in the show.
