How to host these games with no props
Hindi kitty party games without props work best when one host keeps the answers on her phone, reads each clue twice and takes the first raised hand. The kitty treasurer can keep score in her notes app.
For a fair contest, split into two teams by seating and alternate questions. Stop each game after 10 minutes, while people are still laughing.
Word games with answers for the host
These five are the classic kitty party games in Hindi with answers: the host can settle every argument from the lists below.
1. मुहावरा पूरा करो (Muhavara Poora Karo): Complete the Idiom
Players: 4 or more, or 2 teams. Time: 10 minutes. The host reads a muhavara with one word missing. The first person to say the missing word scores 1 point, and a bonus point if she can also give the meaning.
| # | Host reads (मुहावरा) | Answer | Meaning in English |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | आँखों का ___ | तारा (taara) | someone very dear to you |
| 2 | दाल में कुछ ___ होना | काला (kaala) | something suspicious is going on |
| 3 | उँगलियों पर ___ | नचाना (nachaana) | to control someone completely |
| 4 | आसमान ___ पर उठाना | सिर (sir) | to create a huge uproar |
| 5 | ईद का ___ होना | चाँद (chaand) | to be seen very rarely |
| 6 | अपने मुँह ___ बनना | मिट्ठू (mitthu) | to praise yourself |
| 7 | आग ___ होना | बबूला (baboola) | to be furious |
| 8 | आस्तीन का ___ | साँप (saanp) | a friend who secretly harms you |
| 9 | गिरगिट की तरह ___ बदलना | रंग (rang) | to keep changing your stand |
| 10 | गागर में ___ भरना | सागर (saagar) | to say a lot in a few words |
Tip: keep the meaning column hidden until someone tries the bonus. It is the easiest of all the games to host.
2. कहावत का दूसरा हिस्सा (Kahavat Ka Doosra Hissa): Finish the Proverb
Players: 4 or more. Time: 10 minutes. A lokokti (proverb) is a full saying, unlike a muhavara, which is only a phrase. The host says the first half, and players race to finish it.
| # | First half (कहावत) | Answer | Meaning |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | अब पछताए होत क्या, ___ | जब चिड़िया चुग गई खेत | regret is useless once the chance has gone |
| 2 | नाच न जाने, ___ | आँगन टेढ़ा | blaming the situation for your own lack of skill |
| 3 | बंदर क्या जाने ___ | अदरक का स्वाद | someone who cannot value a good thing |
| 4 | जिसकी लाठी, ___ | उसकी भैंस | might is right |
| 5 | एक अनार, ___ | सौ बीमार | one thing that many people want |
| 6 | ऊँची दुकान, ___ | फीके पकवान | a big name with poor quality |
| 7 | घर की मुर्गी, ___ | दाल बराबर | what we have at home gets undervalued |
| 8 | खोदा पहाड़, ___ | निकली चुहिया | huge effort, tiny result |
| 9 | अधजल गगरी ___ | छलकत जाय | people who know little show off the most |
| 10 | ऊँट के मुँह में ___ | जीरा | far too little for the need |
3. पहेली बूझो (Paheli Boojho): Kitty Party Paheliyan
Players: any number. Time: 10 minutes. These kitty party paheliyan are traditional riddles credited to the poet Amir Khusro (13th to 14th century, Delhi). Read each one twice and give a hint after 30 seconds.
- बीसों का सर काट लिया, ना मारा ना ख़ून किया।
Answer: नाखून (naakhoon), fingernails and toenails - एक थाल मोती से भरा, सबके सिर पर औंधा धरा। चारों ओर वह थाली फिरे, मोती उससे एक न गिरे॥
Answer: आकाश (aakaash), the sky full of stars - एक गुनी ने ये गुन कीना, हरियल पिंजरे में दे दीना। देखो जादूगर का कमाल, डारे हरा निकाले लाल॥
Answer: पान (paan), betel leaf - खेत में उपजे सब कोई खाय, घर में होवे घर खा जाय॥
Answer: फूट (phoot), a melon in the field, discord in a home - आदि कटे से सबको पारे, मध्य कटे से सबको मारे। अन्त कटे से सबको मीठा, खुसरो वाको आँखों दीठा॥
Answer: काजल (kaajal), kohl
The last riddle is a wordplay favourite: remove the first letter of काजल and you get जल (water), remove the middle letter and you get काल (death), and remove the last letter and you get काज (work).
4. शब्द अंताक्षरी (Shabd Antakshari): Word Chain
Players: 5 to 20 sitting in a circle. Time: 5 to 10 minutes. Antakshari without singing: each player says a Hindi word starting with the last consonant sound of the previous word. Hesitate for five seconds, repeat a word or use English, and you are out.
Example chain: कमल (kamal) → लड्डू (laddoo) → डमरू (damroo) → रसगुल्ला (rasgulla) → लहंगा (lehenga) → गजरा (gajra) → राखी (raakhi).
5. उल्टा बोलो (Ulta Bolo): Say the Opposite
Players: any number. Time: 5 minutes. The host points at a member and says a word. She must answer with its vilom shabd (opposite) within three seconds. Ten quick pairs to start: दिन–रात, सुख–दुख, सच–झूठ, जीत–हार, आशा–निराशा, मीठा–कड़वा, अमीर–गरीब, नया–पुराना, पास–दूर, आदर–अनादर.

6. डायलॉग पूरा करो (Dialogue Poora Karo): Finish the Film Line

7. गाना गुनगुनाओ (Gaana Gungunao): Hum the Song
Players: 6 or more. Time: 10 minutes. One member hums a Hindi film song with lips closed. The first to name it scores and hums next. Allow only songs at least 10 years old so every generation has a chance.
8. मैं कौन हूँ? (Main Kaun Hoon?): Who Am I?
Players: 5 or more. Time: 10 minutes. One player secretly picks a film star or famous character. The others ask up to 20 haan-or-na (yes-or-no) questions in Hindi. Guess correctly and you pick next.
Number and memory games
These need quick thinking, not general knowledge, so new members can win too.
9. सात पर ताली (Saat Par Taali): Clap on Seven
Players: 6 to 20 in a circle. Time: 5 minutes. Count aloud in Hindi, one number each. On any number that is in the 7 times table or contains a 7, clap instead of speaking. Say the number or forget to clap and you are out. Hindi number names in the thirties and forties catch everyone out.
Answer key, 1 to 50 (clap on these 11): 7 सात, 14 चौदह, 17 सत्रह, 21 इक्कीस, 27 सत्ताईस, 28 अट्ठाईस, 35 पैंतीस, 37 सैंतीस, 42 बयालीस, 47 सैंतालीस, 49 उनचास.

Players: 6 to 15. Time: 5 to 10 minutes. The first player says “मैं बाज़ार गई और लाई… चूड़ियाँ” (I went to the market and bought… bangles). The next repeats the list and adds one item. Miss an item or change the order and you are out.

Acting and storytelling rounds
12. मुहावरा अभिनय (Muhavara Abhinay): Act Out the Idiom
Players: 2 teams. Time: 10 to 15 minutes. Whisper a muhavara from game 1 to one player, who acts it silently for her team in 60 seconds. Good ones to act: आग बबूला होना, ईद का चाँद होना, उँगलियों पर नचाना, गिरगिट की तरह रंग बदलना and आसमान सिर पर उठाना. For film-name rounds, use our dumb charades movie list.
13. कहानी आगे बढ़ाओ (Kahani Aage Badhao): Pass the Story
Players: 5 to 15. Time: 10 minutes. The host starts a story in one sentence, such as “एक दिन मिसेज़ शर्मा कमेटी के पैसे लेकर बाज़ार गईं…”. Each member adds one sentence that must include a muhavara or kahavat. Miss one and sing two lines of a song.

Common mistakes that spoil the fun
- Using doubtful idioms. Forwarded lists often have wrong meanings; use checked lists like these.
- Making it a Hindi exam. Hindi kitty party games should feel like fun, so accept Hinglish answers.
- Forgetting non-Hindi speakers. Play Hindi games for kitty party groups in teams so everyone has a helper.
- Running games too long. Stop after 10 minutes and save the rest for next month.
