How to Play You Touch My Heart
In this game, several round slots are made with a saree, sufficiently wide enough for a hand to pass through. The saree is held lengthwise and behind it stands women from the bride"s side, including the bride. All the women thrust their hand only upto the wrist out of the holes. The groom stands on the other side from where he can only see an array of hands. The challenge for him is to search correctly for his bride"s hands for which he is given three chances. In a bid to confuse the groom even further, the other ladies selected to participate are usually the ones whose hands bear a striking resemblance to the bride"s hands. If the groom fails in this, he has to pay a "fine" before his bride is reunited with him.
