Signification
Asking about the holiday status of the next day.
Contexte culturel
In many Marathi offices, if a holiday falls on a Tuesday or Thursday, employees often discuss 'उद्या सुट्टी आहे का?' in hopes of a 'bridge holiday' to create a long weekend. The 'Collector's Holiday' is a famous phenomenon. If the District Collector declares a holiday due to rain, children celebrate by shouting 'सुट्टी!'. During Ganesh Chaturthi, the first and last days are usually holidays. People ask this phrase to confirm the 'Visarjan' (immersion) day holiday. Socially, this phrase is also used to check for 'Dry Days' (no alcohol sales), which often coincide with major holidays like Gandhi Jayanti.
Check the News
In Maharashtra, if you're asking this because of rain, check 'ABP Majha' or 'Sakal' news first; they are the authorities on 'Sutti'!
Don't confuse with Hindi
In Hindi, 'Kal' means both yesterday and tomorrow. In Marathi, 'Kal' is ONLY yesterday. Always use 'Udya' for tomorrow.
