Rules: The rasas are South Asian aesthetic categories that remain influential in the regions dramas and art (read more on the wikipedia article here). Literally, it’s the dominant “flavor” of a work or performance. For the game, pick a pair that represents each rasa to you. You can choose whether you want to do CP pairings or just characters. No need to explain unless you feel like it. Then tag 5 friends to find out their flavors of love.
I also looked at: "A nice demonstration by a Kathak performer where you can feel the resonances with the soap operatic style." - @siathawisit with other resources to fully understand each rasa in action here.
