hi dosto
salaam
hru?
i heard Rauf Klasra use this word quite frequently.
what do you understand by this phrase? why the name of an Indian City, Bhatinda [in Punjab], is used in this phrase?
ihave been using this phrase since my childhood when i had no idea about the geographic location of Bhatinda and the word ‘VIA’ itself because i hadn’t learned English yet.
so, come on guys, put your two cents in. 
regards
