Dagagiri
(noun)
A playful and light-hearted style of joking unique to certain individuals, typically with close friends. Unlike the bossy connotation of "dadagiri," dagagiri is characterized by a witty, sometimes filmy tone, often quoting movies or delivering unexpected humor. It’s never mean, derogatory, or demeaning but rather a quirky and fun way to express camaraderie.
Example:
Person A: "We’re meeting tomorrow, right?"
Person B: "Aaj hi mil lo jitna milna hai, kya pata kal ho na ho."
Note: Someone with a knack for dagagiri is a source of endless entertainment, making them the life of their friend circle.

"With his dagagiri, Rajeev turned a simple goodbye into a Bollywood scene, saying, ‘Jaane se pehle ek baar aur mil lo, kya pata kal ho na ho.’ His humor isn’t just a joke—it’s a performance, playful and full of heart."
