Arre bhaiyya, this esports craze reminds me of our railway station book stall. The boys glued to their screens for hours—I see it in my own son. But can a video game teach you the patience of a five-hour chess match, with a dented steel *lota* of water by your side and the slow *garam* air of a Bihar afternoon? I am not against it, but these big companies handing out lakhs in prize money to teenagers—it feels like another kind of lottery ticket. My *chai* tastes bitter if the puzzle in the newspaper is not solved first; the world has always had its own slow rhythm, no?
