意思
To face such a difficult situation that one remembers all past comforts; to be utterly exhausted/scared.
文化背景
The maternal grandmother's house (Nanighar) is culturally synonymous with summer vacations and being spoiled with sweets and love. This makes the idiom's contrast with hardship very sharp. The idiom is a staple in 'angry young man' movies where the hero threatens the villain by saying he will make him 'remember his Nani.' Parents often use this idiom to warn children about the difficulties of the real world or the consequences of not studying. In the modern tech hubs like Bangalore or Gurgaon, the idiom has evolved to describe 'crunch time' or difficult coding bugs.
Use for Exaggeration
Don't be afraid to use this for small things to be funny. If a spicy curry is too much, say it!
Gender Agreement
Remember that 'yaad' is feminine. So it's 'aa gayi' (feminine past) not 'aa gaya'.
