Kamthi Chainaba

Battle of the Swords.

Got a busy schedule today. To cover four assignments
(1) a match of football;
(2) Heikru Hitongba festival;
(3) a motorsports stunts; and
(4) cultural entertainment programmes on the Manipur Film Festival

After executing the first two, heavy downpour again, never giving us a break. So postpone the shooting on the motor stunts.

Executed the fourth having no problem of the rains because of its being an indoor programme.

This is an extract from the Manipuri martial arts "Thang Ta" (Swords And Spears), being called "Kamthi Chainaba" meaning 'Battle of the Kamthi or short swords'.
