Due to unlimited internet, people nowadays make more video calls than normal calls. This is because many times you are not able to understand the inner state of the other person by listening to him.
Whereas, by looking at his/her face on video call, you can easily understand whether the person you are talking to is happy or sad. Let us now know what video call is called in Hindi. But before this we will tell you when video calling started for the first time in the world.
first video call
You would think that video calling would have started when the best smartphones came into the market. However, it is not so. Actually, the first video call took place much earlier on June 30, 1970. This call took place between Pittsburgh Mayor Peter Flaherty and Alcoa Chairman and CEO John Harper.
However, these video calls were not like the ones we do today. It is said that no smartphone was used to make this video call, rather a small device named Picturephone Mod II was used for this.

We speak in Hindi on video calls several times a day. But till date we do not know what video call is called in Hindi. When we searched about it on Google, most of the places we found video call written in Hindi as Chalchitra Telephone. Actually, it was discovered abroad and the people there called it video call. This is the reason why people of India also call it video call. However, it is spoken in different languages in China, Korea and Japan. For example, in Chinese it is called Shīpín diànhuà.
