문화적 배경

In the Punjab region, humor is often used as a survival mechanism. 'Kallol' represents the community's ability to laugh together, regardless of their economic status. For second-generation Punjabis, words like 'Kallol' are a way to connect with their roots while maintaining a modern, cool identity. It's often mixed with English (Hinglish/Punglish). Comedy is the most popular genre in Punjabi cinema. Movies like 'Carry on Jatta' are essentially 2 hours of non-stop 'Kallol'. Interestingly, some Sufi poets used the word 'Kallol' to describe the divine playfulness of the universe and the soul's joy.
