What appears to be a casual festive gathering has drawn attention as women were seen placing bets during cock fights. At a time when betting with money is discouraged, the video shows women participating openly and treating it as part of the Sankranti celebrations.
In the clip, one woman tells the anchor she plans to bet across all three days, regardless of wins or losses. She shares that she won three rounds and lost five, yet shows no disappointment and says she is betting purely for enjoyment.
Another woman explains that she took a short break to eat after losing bets for sentimental reasons. She mentions winning two bets and losing three, while continuing to enjoy the event without frustration or regret.
Despite the betting losses, the women appear cheerful and fully immersed in the festive mood. Their reactions highlight how participation in such traditional events is no longer limited by gender expectations.
The video suggests that this Sankranti season, people in the Godavari districts are focused more on celebration than outcomes. Winning or losing seems secondary, as the emphasis remains on shared enjoyment and festive spirit.
