Never engage with Bombay people in Hindi.
You could be complete strangers and they’ll still feel free to address you with a ‘Tu’.
Unacceptable behaviour.
The same Marathi speaking crowd will use ‘tu’ for their mothers & grandmothers but they dare not use ‘tu’ for their fathers, grandfathers or any other male figure w authority.
Patriarchy FTW! 💪🏻
They understand the concept of respect but their respect is reserved for men LOL

Delete...being a delhite I too had my struggles with my mumbai friends referring me as tu in beginning but I get that and started respecting the language diversity.
Every city has its own culture n language...nothing wrong
@PratPanc
Not just strangers they even call their elders “tu” and its bit strange but if you know Marathi then you will realise its not like “North vala abe tu”🤐
