Re: azaarbandi rishtay........
I think it has to do with the fact that you are related to them through your wife with whom you **have intimate relations.
Azarband** keeps the privates private by holding up the bottoms.
Re: azaarbandi rishtay…
So what do we call the girls’ inlaws? 
Re: azaarbandi rishtay........
Every one wears elastic thesedays - AzaarBand or kamarband are tales of gone days :)
Re: azaarbandi rishtay........
^ hehehe..It just struck me that nowadays there is a trend to forgo the azarband and attach "hooks" to shalwars. Does that make azarbandi rishtay = hookers?
Re: azaarbandi rishtay........
the word azarband is compound ...
azar+band
'band' has two meanings:
a) to tie up, closed, prevented
b) to connect
azarband = item that ties up the clothes at the privates, prevents the privates from exposure
azarbandi rishtey = those relatives who are connected through the spouse - literally in-laws

So in a nutshell a spouse is an azaar :D
Re: azaarbandi rishtay…
No … spouse has access … to the najis regions … and najis could be linked somehow to azaar ? I’m trying to look at it from an etymological point of view.
I was trying to find the meaning of azar
I got
a) A disease
b) Cheeks
If it be cheeks then it makes a lot of comedy sense … invoking Pepsi Ki Botal’s style … Bum Chums
Re: azaarbandi rishtay........
and why would they be najis - if you are keeping them clean ?
