'Ji michlaat hai, maatha bhanbhanaat hai': South Indian doctor in UP goes viral for speaking Awadhi, says language sounds like poetry to her - 'I feel so happy when patients speak it'

For Dr Anitha Punyodaya Misra , moving to Uttar Pradesh meant getting used to a new language, a new place and a very different culture from the one she grew up with.

But somewhere along the way, Awadhi won her over.

The South Indian doctor , who is originally from Mangaluru and now lives and works in Gonda, recently shared a video talking about her fondness for the local language. And the reason is rather sweet - she loves hearing her patients speak Awadhi.
