In Kolkata, 'kharap' is often used with a specific 'clucking' sound of the tongue to show sympathy for bad news. In Dhaka, 'kharap' is used very frequently in political discussions and social critiques, often followed by 'bhai' (brother) for emphasis. Parents often use 'kharap' to describe 'bad company' (kharap shongo), warning children against certain influences. Bengali critics might use 'kharap' as a starting point for a deeper 'Adda' (discussion) about the decline of modern cinema.
