A question hard to answer.
Kultureller Hintergrund
Hosts use 'Mushkil Sawal' as a 'hook' to keep viewers watching before a commercial break. There is a high cultural value placed on solving 'mushkil sawalaat', often seen as a sign of superior 'Zahannat' (intellect). In poetry gatherings, critics might ask a poet a 'mushkil sawal' about their use of metaphors to test their depth. Calling a personal question 'mushkil' is a face-saving way to decline answering without being rude.
The 'Filler' Trick
Use 'Yeh ek mushkil sawal hai' as a filler when you need 3 seconds to think of an answer in Urdu. It sounds very natural.
Avoid 'Bhari'
Never use 'Bhari' (heavy) for questions, even if you want to say the question is 'weighty'.
