Significado
Suggesting to leave the current indoor location.
Contexto cultural
It is considered polite for the guest to initiate the 'going out' process. If a host says it, they must provide a reason so it doesn't sound like they are kicking the guest out. In Pune, 'going out' often specifically means going to a 'Katta' (a stone bench) to discuss everything from tea to world politics. In Mumbai, 'baher cala' is often said with urgency to catch a local train or beat the traffic. In villages, 'going out' often refers to going to the fields (sheta) or the village square (chavadi).
The 'Cala' Magic
You can use 'Cala' alone to mean 'Come on!' or 'Let's go!' in almost any context.
Avoid 'Ja'
Never use 'Baher ja' with someone you want to stay friends with; it's very dismissive.
