I got the shock of my life when i first got called "auntie" by this kid ! none of my friends could convince me that day that i dont look old !!! my fear was , do i look 50 at age 24 !!!
Apparently people associate the word "Aunt " with one's age ...
so after my research , I realized what the heck ... we have taken the word Aunt from the west .. which means either parent's sister ... or Khala in simpler desi terms!!
... phew!! my fears were rested ... now i enjoy the Aunt status alot more .. :@:
