뜻
Complimenting the appearance of something.
문화적 배경
Complimenting the 'Nauvari' saree or the 'Paithani' weave as 'khūpa sundar' is a standard social grace. In Pune, the cultural capital, 'sundar' is often used to describe 'Shuddha Lekhan' (pure/correct writing). In rural areas, 'sundar' might be replaced by 'bhari' or 'nadi-par' (beyond the river/exceptional), but 'sundar' is always understood. In 'Bharatnatyam' or 'Kathak' performances in Mumbai/Pune, 'sundar' is used to praise specific 'Mudras' (hand gestures).
The 'Heart' Rule
If something makes your heart feel light, use 'sundar'. If it just makes you happy, use 'chan'.
Food Faux Pas
Don't tell a Maharashtrian cook their spicy curry is 'sundar' unless you mean it looks like a painting!

Add 'Farach'
To sound more native, use 'farach sundar' (फारच सुंदर) to show you are truly impressed.
Modesty
If someone calls you 'sundar', don't just say 'I know'. Say 'Dhanyavad' with a smile.
