This phrase, loosely translated in English as ‘travelling in two boats’, originates from the Chinese proverb ‘one foot cannot stand in two boats’.
It is a colloquial, derogatory phrase used to describe those who cannot make up their minds between two choices and so do both. It would be like continuing discussions for a job with two companies or dating two people at same time. Intention is key. #GhumHaiKisikeyPyaarMeiin
