    What are some examples of Sindhi Folk dances?

    Question #99305. Asked by armindasantana. (Sep 09 08 4:35 PM)


    BRY2K

    		Here are some (I believe):

    There is a dance JHUMIR that is a counter-part of the dance of Laada in songs. Another dance which is performed only by men is DHAMAL, performed by Fakirs and disciples of a particular shrine at the time when the flag of the shrine goes up. This is a dance which is characterised by a sort of religious frenzy and has, therefore, a very fast tempo.

    There are many other dances, though the BHTAGA may be called the King-pin of them all. This is properly speaking a dance-drama enacted with the aid of song, Kalams etc.
