意思
To completely ignore advice or warnings.
文化背景
In Pakistan, this idiom is frequently used in political talk shows to criticize the 'ruling elite' for being disconnected from the struggles of the common man. Classical poets often used this to describe the 'Sitam-gar' (oppressor) or the beloved who is indifferent to the lover's pain. It is a very common 'motherly' complaint in South Asian households regarding children who are addicted to screens or video games. Teachers use it to describe students who repeatedly fail to bring their books or complete assignments despite warnings.
Use 'Tak' for Emphasis
Adding 'tak' (اس کے کان پر جوں **تک** نہ رینگی) makes you sound much more like a native speaker and adds a layer of 'not even a little bit'.
Gender Agreement
Remember that 'Joon' is feminine. Even if you are talking about a man, the verb must be feminine (Reng-i / Reng-ti).

Social Sensitivity
While common, using this about a superior (like your boss) to their face is very risky. It's better used when talking *about* them to someone else.
