- I was challenged by an 80 Year Old Granny for a Sword Fight in India! Guess who won?
Age is just a number and Meenakshi Gurukkal is real evidence of that, she is one of the oldest female gurus practicing the Indian Martial Art, Kalaripayattu, known as Kalari. Meenakshi Gurukkal has been teaching this art for more than 50 years, it is the oldest existing martial arts in India dating back to 3,000 years old.
I hope you enjoyed the video, Much love and God bless!

Such unconventional side of India you are exploring ..kudos 💯
Much love Kalyani for the support! ❤
@@KhalidAlAmeri source of this martial art form is Bodhi dharma.. look up about him.. you ll learn more if you go to the source.
@@prasathcs7377 he is not the source. he is one of the people who knew the earlier version of this art form. he spread that knowledge in china.
But very conventional side of Kerala. 😂😂 most foreigners are here for Kalari or Backwaters 😄
Hmm unconventional side of India? Are you from India
I'm glad I got to witness the traditional kalaripayattu martial arts by the Punarjani group in Munnar... Such sheer talent !!! They need more global recognition and appreciation
Well same Indian tradition hits different ❤
I remember watching chotta bheem movie and cartoon on it. The most beautiful thing is fighting style unlike other martial art which focus on specialisation of one techniques like swordskill this focus more on using everything has weapon
You just witnessed the martial art that gave birth to Shaolin Kungfu!! Kudos and thank you for showcasing Kerala’s toughness to the world!!
And kung fu gave birth to karate.
Similarly, 'Dhyan' became 'Chan' in China and 'zen' in Japan.
Shaolin martial art was developed by Bodhidharma,a Tamil Buddhist monk.
@@gorajoo2975 before being Buddhist monk he was a Tamil King..and yes he developed what Chinese claim as their kung fu, but the original art form came from Lord Shiva who taught to his disciple Parshurama, and Lord Parshurama taught to his few disciples the art of martial art, which once was thriving all around BHARAT, now only alive in Kerela...the martial art is called KALARIPAYATTU, many more art form got lost the moment Kaligug started spreading around the world..theyvall were part of DHANURVEDA...
@@gorajoo2975 bhodi darma was a pallava king....was pallava dynasty Thamil???😳
I loved what Amma said - Unless you're hurt, you won't get stronger.. !
Yes but not most of time sir because getting hurt 🤕 can you make strong yes but they are different ways to get stronger without getting hurts 🤕 sir thankyou 🙏🏽🙇🏽for 👂🏽
as an Indian, discovering India through the eyes of Khalid is an amazing experience
But Fighting is not allowed in islam 😤

there are many indian youtubers making great content on indian culture, religion, civilisation. but are you interested to watch them? unless it is a foreigner, indians are not interest.

Khalid, to my knowledge nobody in the Arab world explored the culture, festivals, traditions and ofcourse the ancient martial art of Kerala state like you. Your special trait is that you are always trying to involve and enjoy the culture sprinkling with humour. You are actually our tourism ambassador. Thank you Khalid. A big salute to you as well.🙏🙏🌹🌹
There were many Arabs who did explore India during the spice trade time. You won't believe it, it started from ancient times. Even the pharaoh pyramid has spices from India, must be from Kerala considering the sea port existed at that time. Khalid's brilliance is in presenting them the way we like it.
@AnoopFran Brother, thank you for the information of usage of spices in the ancient time. My own Kozhikode district had trade links with Arab countries in the ancient period. The present Wayanad district had been part of Kozhikode district prior to 1980. Wayanad is one of the main producer of Cardamom. The present Idukki district is also a major producer. So there is no doubt that the Cardamom found in the Pyramid is from Kerala.
I was dying through the entire video haha. Khalid you are hilarious. Thank you for showcasing the lesser known side of India
I still remember your first video in youtube … and where you have reached now Khalid .. you are blessed .. keep going and share your positivity to everyone 👍🏻🙂.. Jazak allah
The faces Khalid makes when put into stressful situations is so funny! God bless you.
Very true
😂😂😂Khalid, I had no idea you could run away so fast. Thank you for showing us this skill. This world has so many wonders, and thank God you help us learn something wonderful every day.
Yes, He is definitely helping but if you want to learn you can do it by yourself!
I've stepped away for a while, return again and am always happier for the visit. You guys are awesome! God bless you and thanks again for the laughs!
Thankyou sir for your amazing video, another unique side of india (Kerala)🙏

Hey brother I want to tell you something states in India have their own type of martial arts and everyone of them was unique ❤️
Many Indians didn't know about it also ?
But kalaripayattu is considered as mother of all the martial arts that's exist today .it's the most oldest nad powerful form of martial art that exists till the date .
Other state martial arts is also exists but kalaripayattu is older once 👍❤️

Thanks for showing this. Also, sorry as he did hurt you. He should have gone easy on you coz you weren't there to become a pro but to only show this Indian side to the world. I wish that you would heal fast and enjoy a very healthy and beautiful life. Keep on smiling, traveling and inspiring.
Something that so ancient and yet to relevant even today- it’s shameful how some ppl of that state are so anti national in the pretext of protecting their faith. Do they have brains at all or was it washed off in childhood
This is the first form of martial art, and thats how the Shaolin kung was born 😊 Amazing that you are there! Nobody did it before, Subhanallah!
@atlas atlantic kerala came in to exist since 1956 as similar as india in 1947 but that doesnt make sense for what you said, indian subcontinent and name. Kerala and the different parts where existed and pallava dynastys prince taught this form in china which was the ancient form of shaoilin kunfu kalaripayattu is the mother of all martial. Arts
@atlas atlantic ever heard of bodhidharma
@atlas atlantic Seems you are a little jealous but Indians carried the martial art with Buddism, but you maybe not know the history!!! Good luck!!
@@au2424 Buddha's fathe was an Indian 😄 A Hindu king called Suddhodana 👍 The Shaolin is also derived from Kalaripayattu.🙏
@atlas atlantic yeah, gandhi was also a myth

Muslims should be like Khalid Al Ameri not like so many radical ones in the sub continent
Ohmg I had tears laughing , thank u Khalid u made my day ❤
Special people gets such treatment in Kerala. You are lucky enough to be there to see the ancient martial arts and its importance and how the females were involved in fight to protect themselves and the country.
@atlas atlantic it's not even 1 percent of her talent.🙄 She has a lot of skills. And ancient females of Kerala were also bodyguards of king. Females were best in martial arts, sword fighting in those days and some still carry the legacy
@atlasatlantic5396 She is 80. She moves well for her age. Secondly, martial art practice were banned during British colonization as they considered them a threat after Kottayathu War. Penalty to practice it was death if not exile. A sort of revival took place around 1920 but in limited form and only as performing art . Meaning they were not allowed to continue for real fighting. Blocking the evolution as well as imparting and properly practicing already existing techniques. If it didn't work, they would not have been worried.
@Koothichi mole You do not need to put your upbringing on display.
Showcasing Padmasri Award at the end was good one.
This is our Indian culture, we Indians must be proud of it 🙏
Good ist not too late to recognise that 😅
Yup, it's the pride of our nation.
When ever foreign travel TH-camr come to india , they always explore northern side of India , never explore South that much, especially Kerala 🏞️
Thanks for explore Kerala to the world 🥰
@Nature Lover yea I agree 💯
It could happened in opposite way
Exactly💯 And its so annoying when the foreigners get treated badly in North they generalize the whole country.. north and south India a whole different world people!!
I like your humour😂
And we are soooo thankful to you for showing respect for our culture 🤗😍
Much respect and regards from India🇮🇳🙏🤗❤
Omg😂. This was so hilarious! Loved this video. You explored a different part of the Bhartiya culture.

I am proud to say that martial arts origin is in india and its oldest form is kalaripayattu but sad to know that majority of our indian brothers and sisters dont kknow about it. Its another one of our culture that gets hidden due to westernisation.

There are lots positive vibes in India but unfortunately western media only shows negative things..kudos to this channel

Indian monk bodhisattva had travelled to China and had established the shaolin temple there and introduced Kung Fu ...the kalaripattu expert from South India is the father of shaolin temple and martial arts and Kung Fu, which flourished in China.. This style of fighting was later banned and this warrior art form was banned by the British when they colonised India and so, now only a handful like meenakshi amma still carry on this art form. This art form has hence unfortunately declined in India over time.
Sorry to say shoalin temple remove this discription from their website.
@@awesomevideo5525 but truth is truth
@@awesomevideo5525 that is removed recently because xi ping pong has been trying to also pass around this rumour that Buddhism emanated from China and not from India...

Hey Khalid! A bit irrelevant to the video but I've been watching your content for a while and wanted to ask, what do you think about foreigners wearing the traditional clothing when visiting Dubai? I've always wanted to try it when I visit but don't know how the locals feel about it. Also, could you make a video to show us how we could experience a bit the local and traditional things when visiting Dubai/Abu Dhabi? It would be nice getting to know friendly people from your culture! Much love from Greece!
i think nobody minds it.
specially people from Abu Dhabi n Dubai are modern n open minded.
so you can enjoy culture too
It's fine if you do it with good intent, people like when you make an effort to learn about their culture
No issue brother iam from india kerala and i leave in uae RAS al khaimah every day I used to wear Kandura when i go for duty and if possible avoid wearing head scarf which is called Gutra . In opinion atleast we should give that rights only to them who are locals of uae to know and identify them. Secondly from egypts syrians other middle east countries people are here if everyone wears Kandura and gutra so its difficult to understand who is Real Emirati so thats all you can wear kandura ❤ happy visit
No one minds it unless you say something to make fun of their culture. They would appreciate or just ignore.
@@biologylecturesbyriffat
Most Arabs don't mind it from all over the Arab world. One is free to try the local traditional wear.
