Indeed he made it, obvious reason is, its not 2, its ddo, it pronounce as 'daal(dayy) wao do', so yeah its not 2-patta (:-D
as of in gadha garhi, yeah thats 2-Patta (dopatta) (:-p, thats a leather belt wrapped around the neck and head of gadha and 2-ends goes in the hands of the driver, it is used to steer gadha by gadha-garhi driver... (hee-adhay...adhay hattooo-nee hirhay hirhay hirhay...) .. bolay to gadha gari ka steering...
