The phrase is a hallmark of 'Adda' culture. In an Adda, being able to use 'কথা প্রসঙ্গে' to weave different stories together is considered a sign of a good conversationalist. In Kolkata, you might hear 'প্রসঙ্গক্রমে' more often in formal radio broadcasts or literary circles compared to Dhaka. In Dhaka's corporate culture, this phrase is frequently used to politely interrupt a senior colleague with a relevant point. Classic authors like Rabindranath Tagore used this phrase to transition between a character's external dialogue and their internal reflections.
