Bedeutung
Presence of many people.
Kultureller Hintergrund
During the 'Pandharpur Wari', millions of devotees walk together. This is the ultimate 'khūpa gardī', but it is seen as a spiritual and joyous gathering rather than a nuisance. The 'Super Dense Crush Load' is a technical term for Mumbai trains, but locals just call it 'khūpa gardī'. There's a specific way to stand and move in this crowd. The narrow lanes of old Pune (Peths) are famous for 'khūpa gardī' during shopping seasons like Diwali. It's part of the 'Puneri' experience. A wedding without 'khūpa gardī' is often considered a dull affair. The more people, the more 'raunak' (brightness/liveliness) the event has.
