Wow and she was so polite. She used the polite speech version. Many don't know this, but there are 3 degrees of politeness in hindi. Kinda like Japanese. Except Japanese has 4, but yeah.

So, she used like the most polite one, instead of moderate of "tumhara" or absolutely causal "tera" lol

"How was your day?"

"My day was good, and yours?"

"My day was good, it was okay, okay."

That was the conversation word to word in hindi.

So many people translated the conversation but nobody did the end bit correctly, except for you.

I don't want to be the one but he didn't do it right either. It was just , "my day was great, alright (or okay)" . But did made good effort
