뜻
To successfully complete a challenging assessment or test.
문화적 배경
The 'Board Exams' (10th and 12th grade) are seen as the first major 'kaṭhin parīkṣā' in a child's life, often determining their entire career path. The term 'Agni Pariksha' (Trial by Fire) is the ultimate cultural reference for this phrase, originating from the Ramayana. In the booming tech sector, 'cracking' a coding interview at a FAANG company is described using this phrase to emphasize the low success rate. Passing a difficult government exam (Sarkari Naukri) instantly elevates a person's status in rural and semi-urban Indian society, often affecting marriage prospects.
Use 'Crack' for Slang
If you want to sound like a modern Indian student, say 'Exam crack kar liya' instead of the full Hindi phrase.
Gender Alert
Never say 'Pariksha pass kiya'. It's a dead giveaway that you're a beginner. Always use 'ki'.

Mithai Ritual
If you tell an Indian friend you passed a 'kaṭhin parīkṣā', expect them to ask 'Party kab hai?' or 'Mithai khilao!'
