Bedeutung
A door that is not shut.
Kultureller Hintergrund
During Diwali, keeping the 'Khullo Darvajo' is essential for welcoming Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth. Traders often use the 'open door' metaphor to signify they are ready for new partnerships or deals. In villages, a literal open door is a sign of safety and community trust, where neighbors can walk in without knocking. Tech startups in cities like Surat and GIFT City use 'Open Door Policy' (ખુલ્લા દરવાજાની નીતિ) to attract young talent.

Always check the noun. If it's a window (Bari), use Khulli. If it's a book (Chopdi), use Khulli.
Action vs State
Don't say 'Khullo karo' to mean 'Open it'. Use the verb 'Kholo'.
