Instruction to look towards the sky.
Contexto cultural
Looking up at the sky is a daily habit for many during the monsoon season (June-September) to check for rain clouds. During Makar Sankranti, 'Var paha' is the most common phrase heard on rooftops as people compete in kite flying. During the Gokulashtami festival, thousands of people look up at the 'Handi' (clay pot) suspended high above the streets. In poetry, looking up often symbolizes hope or looking toward the future/divine.
Use 'Varti' for emphasis
If someone doesn't see what you're pointing at, say 'Varti paha!' (Look way up!)
Avoid 'Bagh' with elders
Always use 'Paha' with people you don't know well to stay polite.
