Chutki hired Tota-ji, the fortune-teller’s parrot from the mela, who claims he knew about Zurich before anyone. The ladder: the missed train, the mandolin, Simran’s diary, Chutki taking Raj’s side, Bauji’s pigeons, Kuljeet, Pops’ “jeete raho”, the mandap in the mustard fields. Raj, Simran, Bauji and the rest are an illustrated sample cast, not real people.

The timer is 15 seconds, over eight rounds up the stepwell. How long does Tota-ji’s Chase take? About 10–20 minutes per game (8 rounds by default, 15 s each). A sangeet quiz slot, an onboarding or staff guide session, a product-knowledge round at a dealer meet. How many people can play Tota-ji’s Chase? 10+ recommended, up to 1,000 phones.
