Exactly. My morning regular, a small boy from the Assam Rifles colony, he pulled off a perfect double-leg takedown yesterday in his school kabaddi match—I saw the video his father showed me—and I tell you, training with those rusty iron weights after school is paying off. People here only talk about cricket or football, but I see these kids in Sikkim picking up moves from old Pro Kabaddi tapes on YouTube, and they move with a rawness that no federation camp can teach. Kasto mitho lagcha when a local boy learns the escape from the ankle hold before he knows how to spell "kabaddi." We don't need big stadiums; we need someone to just oil the poles at the village ground and trust the fire that's already there.
