so what’s the difference when they both mean the same thing?
Re: batao vs batlao; dikhain vs dikhlain
Batlao? Dikhlain? With an L? Never heard of that… then again i’m no expert 
Batlao /dikhlain doesn’t flow as easy on the tongue, as batao/dikhain…
Re: batao vs batlao; dikhain vs dikhlain
I am not sure how to explain it properly but one is an order, the other is a request to initiate.
Its like 'Show me' vs 'help me to see it' kind of difference.

Good explanation. Very plausible. Batlaao now seems old Urdu, perhaps from Delhi.
Both however are interchangeable when need arise..

Thanks for liking the shayr..
Yes. Thanks for correction also. Kehtay and **Ka’ho **were supposed to be joined here.

yeh purane or naye urdu ka kamaal hai
batlaao dikhlaoo i think haydrabadi urdu hai !
Re: batao vs batlao; dikhain vs dikhlain
I dont think its hyderabadi. It might be Delhi urdu.

Re: batao vs batlao; dikhain vs dikhlain
No I have not been to Delhi but Dilli people used to talk like this 'aray miyan kuch to batla'o' ..
Re: batao vs batlao; dikhain vs dikhlain
