Do you have any sense? Unnichettan is waiting with 'flutes' on the festival stage

Unnichettan, with his 'flutes', is waiting at the festival stage as a challenge. This 'flute' is not for everyone; it is for the intellectually sharp. Since morning, a group of both adults and children have been seen here. Now, there is a spectacle both inside and outside the venue. 65-year-old Unnichettan from Thrissur has arrived at the festival stage with his 'flutes'. You might wonder what these 'flutes' are. If you think the term 'flutes' refers to a problem, you're mistaken. 'Flutes' are the local name for intellectual games and puzzles like the Rubik's Cube, which require sharp thinking.

here is a story behind these 'flutes' from 20 years ago. Unnichettan started making his own 'flutes' out of wood to make a living. He has made 'flutes' for various figures like Kilukkampetti, Meen, and Nirappu. His creations are the result of his own intellect, along with suggestions from others. When Unnichettan displayed his 'flutes' in front of the new generation, it sparked curiosity in everyone. Some took two to three hours to solve certain 'flutes'. The 'flutes' are available starting from 200 rupees. Solving the 'flutes' with precision is no easy task; it requires a combination of intellect and patience, said Unnichettan, adding that this is the way to master the 'flutes'.
