Contexto cultural
In Indian culture, 'dil' (heart) is often used in poetry and songs to represent the soul's vulnerability. Similar to India, the heart is considered the center of emotion and faith, making 'breaking' it a serious moral issue. In Western culture, it is a common trope in pop culture, often associated with individualistic romantic freedom.
