Irresistible Rajasthani Folk Dance!


Which place storms to your mind when asked for the most astonishing royals’ heritage? It’s Rajasthan where flocks beautiful cities, like pink city ‘Jaipur’. The leftover architectures of Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh & other royals are still standing afresh there. Tourists around the globe opt for Jaipur tour packages for exploring their lavished lifestyle & for living life to its fullest. 

What about entertainment through folk dance moves! Believe me! I have witnessed when I booked Jaipur tour packages from Delhi how excitement & delight make the foreigners irresistible to twirl around on the folk dance moves. Folk dance in the company of folk music & tunes gives everyone’s soul a kick to splash in the fun. Letting the gay mood in, this beautiful fusion swaps the tension with stock of laughter.   

Bring out net savvy in you and check Rajasthan tour packages to know the enriched & unique dance forms of this state. Let I give you imagery of its few very famous folk dances that can be seen anywhere in Rajasthan:

  • Gair Folk Dance: Thanks to Bhil tribal that gave ‘Gair’ folk dance that doubles the excitement of ‘Holi’ fest! Men & women, together, play sticks (dandiya) in conventional style attired in traditional costumes.

  • Kalbeliya Folk Dance: This dance form of Kalbeliya community (of snake charmers) dashed you in amazement. The lady in black skirt (ghaagra) moves round & round swaying acrobatically. To more, as the tempo goes on hiking, her quick spinning matches it.    
                  
  • Kachi Ghodi: The man gets fixed-in a dummy horse to narrate the story of Bhavai Bandits’ exploitation. Both put in beautiful traditional dresses. On the tunes of flutes and drumbeats, the dancer shows rhythmic dance moves swaying naked sword in hand.   

  • Ghoomer Folk Dance: Taking gracious turns around (pirouette), the elegant females in traditional lehengas don’t short of energy while matching beats.  

  • Chari Dance: In traditionally styled lehengas, the ladies dance not in ordinary way but balancing brass pitcher on head. The eyes can’t miss the picturesque site when the same pretty ones create illuminating patterns through alight cotton-seeds on the urn. 

  • Bhavi Dance: What a mouth-widening performance it is to watch the pretty lady swaying perfectly on beats while carrying 9 to 13 brass urns on head. It is bet you would shriek ‘OMG!’ as the lady perches on sword or glass or thali while doing so.

Rajasthan hides an endless list of these dance forms. Watching these with your eyes will take you away straight to heaven.
