In many regions, especially in the chilly winters of North India, an angithi becomes a central feature for families, providing warmth and a cozy gathering spot. Beyond its practical use, the angithi is also symbolic of communal and family gatherings, where stories are shared, and meals are cooked with love and care.
an "angithi" refers to a traditional portable charcoal stove or heater, commonly used for cooking in some parts of India, including Bihar. It’s a compact device that's particularly handy for outdoor cooking or during colder months to provide warmth.
