"Bindaas" is a word in Hindi slang that originated (like many other Hindi slangs) from Mumbaiya Hindi (the dialect spoken in and around Mumbai and used in films in the mouth of lesser educated people). It's
now spread all over North
India and pretty much lost its slang status. It's even a part of the OED now.
(it can also be spelt bindas and bindass)
1. originally, cool and carefree; (of a person) not worrying too much about anything.
(now not used except as passing into sense#2)
2. in a wider sense, used generally as an adjective of approval; good, excellent, first-class, cool; by hyperbole,
okay, passable.
3. also used as almost a verbal tic, without any specific meaning, to start, continue and finish a conversation.
4. also the
name of a TV channel broadcast in
India.
