This is a game that we used to play as children. We would form a circle (which is the pond) and the princess (who is standing outside the circle) is asked if she would like to bathe in the pond. The princess replies that the pond is too small. The rest of the children in the circle reply back and tell her to drop money (a hundred rupee note or gold) for the pond to become bigger. Once the princess does this the circle/ pond grows larger and she enters. But the catch at the end is that she will not be able to get out of the circle/ pond. So the fun of the game lies in the struggle of the princess as she tries to get out of the circle. 😅😅
Sounds a little scary now that it's been narrated 😬 But who knows what the symbolic meaning of this game is. Maybe we're over analysing. 😜
