Is this word used in English? --Anatoli 07:45, 31 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

We already have a Hindi entry for घर (ghar) derived from Sanscrit गृह (gṛhá). --Anatoli 07:49, 31 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
It is the name of a Bollywood film - see w:Ghar. It is capitalised in several placenames (Apna Ghar, Gadi Ghar, Talatal Ghar), but most usages in English texts are placed in quotation marks to show it is a foreign word. (I would have just deleted it.) SemperBlotto 07:56, 31 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I thought it could be classified as Indian English. I will delete, if there are no objections. --Anatoli 11:15, 31 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Striking, good decision. Mglovesfun (talk) 07:38, 2 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
