બેઠક Bethak

દાઝી તો દાઝી, પણ પૂછી પૂછીને ખાધી.

dājhī tō dājhī, paṇa pūchī pūchīnē khādhī.

Literally
It burnt her, yes it burnt her, but she ate it after repeatedly asking.
What it means
Engaging in a risky action after full warning and consultation leaves no ground to complain about the painful outcome.
