Meaning: It's the sound that Mumbaikars make when they are trying to grab someone's attention; the sound that people make when they purse their lips. It's like a kiss, and it's such a Bombay sound. It's indescribable, it's beyond words. I have heard everyone from cops to autowallahs use it. I'd describe it as an eloquent pout that predates the current obsession with pouting on Instagram.
