How to play Dumb Charades using Bollywood Movies
- Team Play: In dumb charades, two teams are formed, and a player from one team acts out a movie title chosen by the opposing team. The team with the most points earned via perfect guesses wins.
- Basic rules of the game: One player has to silently act out a Bollywood movie title using only gestures, while their teammates try to guess the title within a time limit. Any speaking, lip movements, or writing leads to disqualification.
- Acting out Bollywood titles: It is obvious that the opponent team will give you a difficult title. For that, break the name into parts and act each part separately. Use exaggerated gestures, mimicking a famous scene, or even the actor of the movie to help your team win.
- Time limit challenge: Make sure to set a strict time limit, such as 60 seconds, to guess the title. This adds intensity and great challenge to the game, making it more exciting.
- Variations of the game: Add fun twists like only allowing players to act out titles from a specific Bollywood genre and then from a certain era, like ’90s Bollywood classics, for a more themed experience.
