Cultrual [traditional] Dance

Re: Cultrual [traditional] Dance

i took bharatnatyam for 4 years...while in the dance troupe, i learned many indian folk dances like:

garba/raas from gujurat, bihu from assam, ghoomar from rajashthan, bhangra/gidda from punjab,...it was alot of fun, very hard and demanding, but fun!!

and great exercise!

Re: Cultrual [traditional] Dance

I learned 'Dandiya' from my Hydrabadi fella. Rajhistani 'Dandiya' (when the move fast in circule) was one of tough traditional dance. I remember every after two minutes, i needed a glass of water :D

Re: Cultrual [traditional] Dance

who introduced you to that tone?

Re: Cultrual [traditional] Dance

Wow.. MA you are so talented :salute:

Re: Cultrual [traditional] Dance

i got in sd card of cell as default........:D

As there are lot of sindhis here in india

Re: Cultrual [traditional] Dance

zara LKK ko bhi salute kar de jinho ne dandiya hyderabadi se sikha hai aur shayad bhangra kisi bengali se sikha ho:sannan:

Re: Cultrual [traditional] Dance

Bade bhai salam :salute:

BTW, a Hyderabadi guy may have taken classes for garba like Khatti did.

Re: Cultrual [traditional] Dance

Is the song is tutak tutak tutiya hojamalo:)

Chahe kar lo duniya ka toor (tour)
Ahi! gajab hai Kanpoor

UP wallah dance on Milad ul Nabi also on some sufi songs praising Prophet(pbuh):D

"Teen maar" tune pe dance karna tha, all dances converge on that tune:D, Hyderabadis get frustrated if someone disturbs them while they are high on "Teen Maar"

Itna mast teen maar pe naach ra tha mein, ine police waale aako dance ka bomabumm kar diye:D

Re: Cultrual [traditional] Dance

:hmmm: Teen Maar kia Tees Maar ka sachet hai.. I hope its not like ‘Sheela ki jawani’ :smiley:

:omg: Bomabumm

Re: Cultrual [traditional] Dance

No its a folk song and they just use Hojamalo in tutak tutak tootiyan as a fusion to attract Sindhi community in India :slight_smile:

:eek: and I thought Ovais Qadri is the only culprit. :mad2:

Re: Cultrual [traditional] Dance

It is not a song, it is just a tune, quite unique, I will paste the link if I find it:D

I heard it first time in UP, where as usual Baraat was dancing on Tootak tootak totiyan DAHI JAMA LO:D

while Jalsa is on the way, all thelwalas selling samosas to Ice cream would be on the side of road, some youngster would jump on eat and jalsa moves ahead, then they catch up with Jalsa again as soon as possible:)

woh to Muharram ke setting hi sad hai nahi to UP waale uss par bhi naach lete:D

Re: Cultrual [traditional] Dance

This is famous marfa dance from hyderabad…

i think its inspired by yemeni dance as an area named barkas is inhabited by yemeni arabs …which were originally barracks of yemeni soldiers of nizam…now known as barkas

just search for marfa dance of hyderabad

Re: Cultrual [traditional] Dance

Khatti may have that in her collections :slight_smile:

:omg: HO Jamalo = Dahi Jama Lo

Yes Muharram is very serious occasion, but as far as food is concerned, I don’t think any other festival could match with the variety of food prepared in Muharram. From Haleem to Biryani, Milkshake to Sikanjbeen, almost all variety is given as Nazr o Niaz. My family is Sunni, but we also distribute channa pulao and arrange for Rooh Afza sabeel for children (My Ammi says them Masoom).

I also observed some Muharram procession behind the main jaloos (doing Maatam), which come with dhol and shehnai probably depicting the yazeedi troops after the Shahadat of Hazrat Hussain (RA).

Re: Cultrual [traditional] Dance

I liked the Paktun traditional dance.

Re: Cultrual [traditional] Dance
