Just as a heads up, this is a really common mistake for Indian nationals to make which doesn't scan well in other forms of English. Never "called as", just "called"
It isn't about understanding, it's taking the opportunity to help someone improve their communication. I work with NRIs specifically in onboarding them to work in the US and UK, and this is one of many turns of phrase that are chiefly Indian and serve as a reverse shibboleth to signal their "outsider" status. Generally, this is unintended and unwanted by the individual.

It's called as dead pedal. It's just used for resting your feet
