KhaDoos (devanagari:खड़ूस,also spelled as Kharoos) is an informal word which is used for someone who is rude, snobbish, and doesn’t seem to care about others.
Saala is literally one’s wife’s brother, but it’s mostly used as a not-so-offensive cuss word. Thus, saala khaDoos is nothing but calling someone snobbish, in a casual, offensive tone.

Mirzya Meaning | मिर्ज़्या, میرزیا
It was in the February 2015, that I was discussing the meaning of Mirzya with Pavan Jha. Mr. Jha is a well known person for Gulzar saab’s fans, is himself an ardent Gulzar fan, and also happens to aid him in things like reaching his fans online, whenever that happens.
So I was trying to find out what Mirzya meant (at that time I was thinking it would be spelled as Mirziya, kinda rhyming with Ishqiya, but the ‘i’ isn’t there, and it becomes a little more clear that what he said was right). He told me that Mirzya was nothing but, say, an accented version, just another way, of saying Mirza, like we say, ‘Oye Mirzya/ Mirzye’, and that was about it. I thought about how people say the name in Punjabi, and realized he was right, and the movie should actually use the Punjabi version of the name, as the story happens somewhere in Faisalabad area where the native language was Punjabi.
As for the meaning of Mirza, it’s a name that is based on a historical title of Persian origin, denoting the rank of a high nobleman or Prince, and here it’s the name of the guy in the tragic love story of Mirza and Sahibaan.
PS: If you use any Google transliteration tools, it may be difficult to write मिर्ज़्या in Devanagari by converting English letters to Hindi, as Google doesn't even show the option with half र and half ज़, the way Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra has spelled it here. Also, not entirely sure about whether the 'yay' should be there after 'meem' here or not. Correction/confirmation would be welcome.

Katti Batti Meaning
I don't want to talk to you anymore.
KaTTi.
* * *
You got that chocolate for me? Okay, you're my friend.
BaTTi.
* * *
And that's what KaTTi and BaTTi mean in the language of Indian kids, at least to those in Hindi speaking areas. I believe the concept is used by kids almost everywhere across India, even though the nomenclature may be different.
KaTTi comes from the Hindi word Kaatna (to cut), and is used by kids to what you could call cut connection with their friends. BaTTi is end of 'KaTTi.' In the North, KaTTi was expressed with a click of thumb under one's chin, and BaTTi was known as abba.
For the concept as it happens in the movie, you can check out this video.

Bahubali/ Baahubali Meaning
Baahubali, or Bahubali, is a Sanskrit origin word which is used in many Indian languages, including Telugu and Hindi.
In Sanskrit, baahu means arm, and bal means strength. Hence baahubal means strength of one's arms. From this comes baahubali, which means one who has strength in his arms.
So, to put it simply, baahubali is someone who is strong, literally in the physical sense of the word, though the word is also used for people who are powerful, not necessarily through the strength of their own arms. A simple example can be of Saif Ali Khan's character in Omkara, who was called Langda Tyagi 'baahubali' by his supporters.

Ishqedarriyaan/ Ishqedaariyaan Meaning
-daar is an Urdu Farsi suffix that is used for someone who has something. It's a little tough to explain, so let's take an example. Zimmedaar is someone who has a zimma, responsibility, so zimmedaar means responsible. Similarly, one who has a hissa, a part in something, is hissedaar.
Now that way, Ishqedaar is someone who has love, who is part of that love, and ishqedaari would be the thing that he has, that is love. So after a turn around, ishqedaari is more or less, love. Just like zimmedaari which is responsibility, more or less same as zimma.
Ishqedaariyaan (or ishqedarriyaan, as they have spelled it), thus, which is nothing but the plural for ishqedaari, means 'loves', as in, the loves that the partners in love have.
And just in case you thought all that was blabbering, just call ishqedarriyaan as love.

Tevar Meaning | तेवर
Tevar [Devnagari:तेवर] is a Hindi word which though literally means a frown, is used mostly for an attitude or anger. While the phrase 'tevar chadhna' would mean 'to get angry', the word can most commonly be traced as being used for 'attitude'.
For example, if you say, 'Tevar to dekho ladke ke', you'd mean, 'See the attitude of the boy.' Of course the meaning of the attitude here is the informal one, as tevar would not mean a positive or supportive attitude, but an angry kind.

Kochadaiiyaan Meaning [Rajinikanth Movie]
Seriously, that's the new spelling. I had written a post on the meaning long time back, but I was not expecting a double i stunt with Rajini sir's movie too. Looks like Superstition is going places these days.
Anyway, Kochadaiyan Ranadhiran was a Pandya king in the seventh century, who is known to have fought and won many battles against the Cheras, Cholas and Marathas among others.
But then, Kochadaiyan literally means 'a King with matted hair' as Ko means a King and Chadaiyaan means one with matted hair. So kochadaiyaan would be king with matted hair.
And then, with that name, Kochadaiyaan is also used for Lord Shiva sometimes.
And that's the name of Rajini sir's film. Kochadaiyaan. Or Kochadaiiyaan now.

Heropanti is a made up kind of word, though people use it randomly. As such the word is made up of hero and suffix -panti, which is for -ness, or rather, a trait that someone shows. For example, someone who shows madness, is doing paagalpanti, paagal being mad.
So heropanti is hero-ness, basically showing off oneself as a filmy hero, and probably do all the action and drama that movie heroes do onscreen.
Heropanti in itself is a derogatory kind of word.
