ReplyDeleteAi phun,Ai Saphun and Taren kaloinu seems to be an awesome games although i've seen it once playing in Karingei by inpui katangruan Delhi
ReplyDeleteFor recognition first we have to play in big festival like sangai, horn bill, or show cast infront of VIPs
ReplyDelete@Sarin rightly said, not only showcasing in big public gatherings, we need to do sustain our culture. First thing first we need to know our games. And using of both print and visual media to showcase this losing tradition is felt more than ever before.
