Kabaddi is an Irani origin game .

@@Q_QQ_Q kabaddi is Indian origin game

@@Q_QQ_Q I don't know whether what you are saying is correct or not but anything is known by the place where it is in practise rather than its origin. Example:-Pizza was invented in Italy but USA is famous for pizza. Kabaddi is famous is India more than any other country.

+Shivang Singh you dont know it thats why i am telling you . Its majorily punjabi game . because of the migrants during mughals . In Pakistan its also huge just like in northern india in places where mughals influenced . Persian empire also had turk rulers , they broght Irani game to india . In Iran , Its very popular . Iran beat india many times in past also won both men and women in asian games .

which district and state?

More than that even in Mahabharata period this sports was played.

@@abhaypatel4292 The most noteworthy mention of kabaddi, however, is found in the Hindu mythological epic, ‘The Mahabharata’. Legend has it that the Pandava warrior Arjuna picked up the skills of Kabaddi under the tutelage of Lord Krishna. He mastered the art of quietly sneaking into enemy traps and demolishing the fortifications without a single scratch on his body. The epic also talks of the tragic death of Arjuna’s son, Abhimanyu, who was successful in piercing the ‘Chakravyuha’ or the seven-tiered defensive wall of the Kauravas during the Kurukshetra War but did not know the way out. It is said that Abhimanyu learned the technique of attacking when he was a fetus in Devi Subhadra’s womb by absorbing his father, Arjuna’s narration to his mother. But Arjuna was called by Krishna and the conversation had to stop, depriving the unborn Abhimanyu the knowledge of escape from the deadly formation. On the 13th day of the Kurukshetra battle, the 16-year-old Abhimanyu broke through the Kaurava formation in a scintillating show of valour and fearlessness. The teenager fought gallantly but ultimately was mercilessly killed by the enemy brigade as he could not escape from their iron clutches.Ancient scripts suggest that the sport of kabaddi was established in memory of the courageous fighter that Abhimanyu was.

@@ishanjha5010 Their is thousands of proof of Mahabharata it's not mythology it's history 🙏

May be u Shud start a k-league in SL like P-league of pak cricket(not successful) ....there are international pro-kabbadi tournament with international k-teams event sponsored by star sports,..apart from international kabbadi games/tournaments...

Kpl has some foreign players famously kim lee from Korea I bet there would definitely be some sri Lanka's also Only thing they won't have given chance to play which is sad though

Why

Ok

Yea South Koreans, Iranians etc players take part

Well may be different versions of same game.

Well yeah south east Asia was also influenced by India.

@@gabbar51ngh yeah we share land border so cultural exchange was normal.

@@ishant2009 no most of the cultural exchanges were due to indian ocean trade not land. Also most of indians/descendants are of south indian heritage.

We also come in asia so their is so much similarities

All the best

What's the update man. It's been over one year, did you play it?

@cITRIC ACId yeah because it's on TV everyday now

Yes

This IS the actual truth.

Yes most famous game here in rular area of punjab and harayana💪

It originated in southern india.. so nothing new 🚶

It's a national game of Nepal dude

@CRISTIANO RONALDO their fault

Apan log to pass pass hi rehte hain

@@kashutosh9132 im worried , kp oli is gonna say kabaddi was originated in nepal

@@shaikbasha7833 🤣😂

Just like they did with basmati. They copied it and now sell it by the name Jasmati.

That's exactly what I thought! Not just the USA tho, but the UK as well.

And also to Anand Mahindra’s idea who made it equally professional like any other game. It was his idea to switch dirt ground with colourful mats, grooming players etc which in this current time where popularity go hand in hand with aesthetic, helped a lot to promote this game.

I wud be happy to play kabaddi with u.

Kabaadi is a game invented by Punjabis not Indians

Mr Singh Punjabis are also Indians

True but this is too aggressive for what our traditional games we are used too 😂 😂 😂

patintero ba sir? haha

Kabbadi is Men's sport

@@YTworld-69 Nope. Women also play it.

@@YTworld-69 shut up idiot, its for both gender

same story from another delhi guy but i was prepared for rain and panni ki patang was ready .

You fly kites in the rain???

I went to an elite private school and we played it as well. But it really was a part of our school's attempt at connecting it with our Indian roots. As far as I know ours was the only private school in our city that played it. We played it against more rural, or poorer schools.

So true I used to play kabbadi all the time when I was in school.

@@simonthomas1878 Elite school means the rich kids are disconnected from the real side of India. So, its obvious why they tried.

@@TheFourthWinchester I know. And I appreciate it. They did a lot to root us. I used to be bored of it, but I realize how I'm so much better than my very Westernized compatriots from other schools.

Comcast.. Most of em working there are indians

Thank you I was wondering why raiders weren't saying kabaddi, seems like a good change, a time limit can be enforced easier, than someone repeating words.

Good call. It made it sound like a gay child's game.

It still is necessary as far as I know. I remember last season a raider was given out for not chanting the word "kabaddi". (It was Mohammad Maghsodhlou if you know him.)

Except rugby is on grass, softens ground impact. Tackled on here could be damaging. Still keen to give this a go

@@nikhildeodhar143 "It was Mohammad Maghsodhlou if you know him" Oh yeah I know him SO well it's not even funny. Sick of the man. He keeps coming around my house asking me out and I just keep telling him "no Mohammad I ain't gay you really shouldn't sacrifice your professional kabaddi dream for little ol' me". He leaves roses on the stairs and shit. The dude really can't take a hint... ^My bad couldn't resist. It's late and the question was pretty funny:P Well the game looks decently fun (minus the possible difficulties in judging if a touch has been made or not) but verbally repeating kabaddi is just silly and stupid and, again, makes it seem more like a children's game than a sport.

Exactly

Actually it came tamil word kaipudi = Kai(hand)+pudi(hold) It deformed into kabadi later 😂 naturally .

@@hunter-z4547 thats how words change with geography... u don't say its deformed

Nope

Everyone can play it

That's the kick !

Raider must developed his escaping skills. There are many skills for raiders and also for defenders.

It hurts. 😅

Irony . Ours is Hockey .

And also state game of telangana india

I don't think so..

Yes in a parallel universe. Btw I think ipl is also desi...

Just W8 n C Guyz... And For Ur Kind Information IPL Is Desi But Cricket Is Not🤙🤭

@Athul P religion hona ke bawajood final mey fooose hojaate hai😂🤣😂🤣

well you need a friend and some plaster of Paris or white colour draw lines to play this sports it has easy rule sexy game of strength and athletism.

Even soccer needs a ball. This needs absolutely nothing other than a marked court and 13 friends 😂

you don't find kaabadi players! you make them! - Pro kaabadi player

true.

What about Street sh1tting & lynching ?

@CRISTIANO RONALDO Oh they also do that I didn't knew that.

@mahesh deshmukh There's hardly any physical activity in Cricket so it's hardlyplayed for physical exercise.

@@pineappleburger7281 so your rice bag converts

Punjabis and haryanvis are champion of Kabaadi

It's true for many channels but not for this one. They've been covering India for like 2-3 months.

They are on a India tour so trying to cover up as many as topics possible

STFU...it doesn't mean the they dont have to make any videos on us...little kid

It's good for Indian too

Just because youtube is banned in China until then

Yess

Telangana south indian also it is popular.

Yes absolutely . I hope Kho-Kho also gets its recognition that it deserves soon.

Like soccer 😂

Example soccer Bruhh 😂

Kabaddi is a part of rural India. People even travel to other villages to see a Kabaddi tournament. It's a simple game and rural people are well informed about Kabaddi's rules and terms. And now, their favorite game is on TV and internet. They can watch it while sitting at home. Plus Urban India is also enjoying the game which is a bonus point.

Because of kabadi league

Once you play it,you cant stop yourself

The game did not change. If just because of enjoyment then it would be popular long time back. @@esportsind5924

@@TheAnkurp09 The league existed long before popularity.

DragonClawProductions Sports teams from Telengana/Hyderabad always have a good defence, from the Sunrises to the Titans.

@@ahumanperson1638 is that the reason,Why sun risers lost to CSK last season and titans have never won a pkl title ??? By the way why did titans represent vizag last season??? Imbeciles should limit themselves to kitchen !! Let alone talk about telangana ??? the team is called Telugu Titans but not telangana titans and Hyderabad is a mutual capital for both andhra and telangana for 10 years so limit your knowledge to yourself don't spread it in social media ,moron!!!!

@zverodion288 Al Jazeera is pro-Islamic but being run by Qatar means they are anti-Saudi Arabia. The Islamic world is one fucked up mess to try to follow, Iran vs Saudi, Qatar vs Saudi, Turkey vs Kurds, Syria vs rebels. Does anyone over there know what diplomacy is?

India is nothing but a gaint garbage

@@modi_ka_baap why

Rohit Ahir you are doing right. Politicians just eat the cleaning budget and then say all the world is dirty or was dirty and full of pollution when they were growing up and it is our time to grow so pollution, rubbish etc are inevitable. So they are giving license to public, farmers, industry not to recycle anything, burn whatever you can without a care. Modi started clean India but he knew all along that it was a gimmick as no policy of reward, punishment to anyone was issued by his govt. Biggest scam is in cleaning Ganga project. I was surprised 2 years back, in fight between the two parties BJP and aap, rubbish was piling on roads of the capital Delhi for days if not weeks.

@@modi_ka_baap what is contribution towards Ur nation ?

@@johndaniels1779 😂😂😂

@@johndaniels1779 burrrrrnnnnn 😂😂

actually hand holding is a tactic because defender has to be cautious, the attacker is usually aggressive and while defending you don't have enough option while the raider can touch anyone so the reason behind hand holding is that the person holding hand will pull you back if the raider tries to touch you also if you notice the person in the back is holding the wrist of the person in the front

@@CNBCi Do the next on China, especially how China developed so fast and become so technologically advanced, despite the two countries becoming independent at almost the same time,and having no significant difference in GDP then,and now how come India is so backward and has 1/6 of China's GDP.
