Nachiketa Playing Holi

My 10 year old son, Nachiketa, had a riot, playing Holi. He and his little friends from our housing complex carried out a commando style assault on the neighboring complex lobbing plastic packets filled with gulaal colored water on the kids of the neighboring complex.

It was actually hilarious when he and his friends tried to scale the compound wall to lob the water packets only to find the "enemy" kids waiting. The resultant throw was so weak that the enemy kids could catch the packets before they broke and lobbed it right back in our compound splashing colored water on our kids.

Do ignore the not so great video quality. I was busy enjoying rather than trying to capture the action properly. I was also trying to hide myself behind the curtain of the window of my second floor flat so that the "enemy" kids did not spot me and aim their water packets at me.

I will provide the link to the video soon
