Bedeutung
Stating one's role as a learner.
Kultureller Hintergrund
Education is considered 'the milk of a tigress' (विद्येविना मती गेली...), a famous quote by social reformer Jyotirao Phule. Being a student is seen as a noble pursuit. The 'Puneri' culture specifically prides itself on being the intellectual capital. Students here are often seen in 'Abhyasikas' (study halls) late into the night. During 'Saraswati Puja' (Vasant Panchami), students worship their books and pens, reaffirming their identity as 'Vidyarthi'. When you say 'I am a student' to an elder in Maharashtra, they will often respond with 'खूप शिक, मोठा हो' (Study a lot, become great).
Gender Matters
Always check the gender. Using 'Vidyarthi' as a female is a very common beginner mistake.
Avoid 'Ek'
Don't say 'Mī ek vidyārthī āhē'. It sounds like you are emphasizing that you are exactly ONE student and no more.

Respect
Saying this to elders often opens doors for helpful advice and mentorship.
