What π means
π is a warm, everyday food emoji. In many Asian homes rice is the centre of every meal, so π often simply means "food time" or "come eat". In the Philippines and Indonesia, where rice comes with almost every dish, people use it for lunch and dinner plans, and Filipinos may use it for unli-rice meals. In Indian chats it can stand for dal chawal or a home-cooked lunch. It is more general than π, which shows curry with rice, and it carries no hidden slang meaning.
In texting
It often means "have you eaten?" or "I am eating now". Asking about food in this way is a caring habit in many Asian cultures.
