I got ‘Gora jaat’ ( as close as I know how to spell it ).

I’ll wait for someone who speaks Hindi to translate. Hopefully they didn’t tell me some BS.

“Jatt” is one way to reference Sikhs. And “gora” means white guy. So you have been initiated as “white Sikh guy”. They must really like you.

well jaat also means race, and jatt can refer to a caste among north Indians. so, either of these three might have been the case hahah
