How to play Langur Burja? (If you have never played before)

In this game, symbols named “Jhanda”, “Burja”, “Itta”, “Paan”, “Hukum” and “Chidi” are printed on the six faces of each dice. This is a betting game so a person will host the game. The others can place their bets on any of the six symbols. After the bets have been placed, the host will roll the dices.

The ways to win/lose are:

– If none or one of the dices show the symbol which holds a bet, then the host can take the money or bet placed on that symbol.

– But if two or three or four or five or (hopefully) six of the dices show the symbol which holds a bet, then the host has to pay the person who made the bet twice or thrice or four times or five times or six times the bet according to the result as well as the original bet money.

Players can become a host and take the money or place the bets and get lucky. They can also play the game themselves.

The game is a simple interpretation of the popular game that we all love and play with our friends and family. The game will incite the feeling of happiness as if he/she were playing the real deal.
