- Interesting! What other games did you play?
- We often played Chor-Sipahi (Thief and Police), which is like a hide-and-seek game where one team plays thieves and the other police. The police try to catch the thieves and bring them to a designated jail area. It’s quite thrilling.

- We played that too! It’s a classic. Another game I enjoyed is Kho-Kho. It’s a tag game where players sit in a row and try to catch the runners. It’s all about speed and agility.
- Kho-Kho is popular in many parts of India, including Jammu and Kashmir. Another traditional game we have is Kabbadi, which is also well-known nationally. It’s a team sport where players raid the opponent’s side to tag as many defenders as possible without getting caught.

- Kabbadi is such a thrilling game! Requires so much strength and strategy. Do you have any traditional board games?
- Yes, we play Chaturanga, which is believed to be the predecessor of chess. It’s an ancient strategy game involving four players with pieces representing different parts of an army.
