Etymology

Of uncertain origin. Turner derives the word from खट (khaṭa, “thatching grass”), taking the original meaning as "something made of matting". Related formations in Dravidian languages like Telugu కిటికీ (kiṭikī, “window”) are thought to be borrowed from Indo-Aryan, rather than the other way around.
