To be impressed by something.
सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
In Marathi culture, 'Man' is considered the bridge between the physical and spiritual. When something 'fills the mind', it is seen as a sign of 'Prasannata' (contentment/joy). During the 'Kanda-Pohe' (matchmaking) ceremony, the phrase is a coded way for the groom to tell his parents he likes the bride without being too blunt. Poets like B.B. Borkar often used this idiom to describe the beauty of the Konkan landscape, suggesting that nature 'fills' the soul of the observer. In Paithani and Nauvari saree shopping, this idiom is the ultimate compliment a weaver can receive from a customer.
Gender Agreement
Always check the gender of the object. If you like a 'Chitra' (painting - neuter), use 'bharle'.
Don't use for food
If you like a dish, say 'Avale'. Saying a Vada Pav 'filled your mind' sounds like you are obsessed with it in a strange way.

Use with 'असा काही'
