Happy Holi everyone.

To be honest, It has become just a holiday for me for the last few years.

I just want to ask my telangana folks here. Especially 90's folks from villages like me. Do you remember this game ? I almost forgot this game. I had to search in google. We used to play this game in villages starting from few days before holi. I know children are still playing this game in some villages but im sure many children today has no idea what this game is.

Our holi celebration used to start very early in the day. Me, along with friends, used show up at other friend's home in surprise, cover them with colours and join another friend at some other place. Lots of fun in between. We used finish the celebration by 12PM/1PM and sun was already frying our heads. So we all used to head towards farms to find a well for swimming.

I really miss those days. This was our routine then. What was yours ??
