Savji (also spelt as Saoji, Souji, Sauji)[1][need quotation to verify] is a Hindu community found in the Indian state of Maharashtra.

Cuisine[edit | edit source]

Savji food is known for its very hot and spicy flavour in many cities (where they are in large number) served in small family-style restaurants called Savji khanavali[2] or "Savji hotel" or bhojanalaya,[1] found in places like Nagpur in Maharashtra. [3][4]

Language[edit | edit source]

Savji people speak a language called "Savji bhasha" or "Khatri bhasha" in some regions[5][need quotation to verify] that belongs to the Indo-Aryan language family and appears to be an amalgamation of Indic languages such as Sanskrit, Hindi, Marathi, Sindhi, Gujarati, Marwari.[citation needed]
