Ramdev lived in 16th century and emerged as God for down-trodden and hierarchically low castes. He is worshipped in large tracts of Rajasthan, Punjab, Madhya Pradesh and Gujarat. Teratali is a dance form where women tie good number of Manjiras on their body and play them with dexterity with hands. They sing in praise of Ramdev and his miracles. The group of Teratali dancers is known as Kamad. They mainly live in Pali, Udaipur and Nagore districts of Rajasthan. Their patron castes are Meghwal and Nath. The families of kamad’s of Nagore district have community wise decided not to dance and that has barred many female dancers from performance skills. They continue to sing devotional songs for their patrons. They presently work as priests of Ramdev shrines and temples in the villages. They use Tandura or Chautaro as drone and rhythm instrument Manjira and Tal are their main dance instruments. Dholak provides them with rhythm. The songs are always of devotional nature;लोक वाद्य: नगाड़ा, हारमोनियम व खरताल की जुगलबंन्धीKalbelias are a part of larger group known as “Jogi”. Jogis are mostly nomad people and move on their own beat. After the independence of the country they are trying to settle in villages and on the periphery of towns. Jogis provided technical services to village people.It is due to their services that they are nomads. Kalbelia Jogis used to make very sophisticated part of pitloom i.e. cloth-weaving traditional set-up. Due to new textile industry their main economic work was snatched from them. Yet wherever pit -looms for weaving are operating, the Kalbelias provide the same service. Kalbelia are also know as snake charmers. They play on ground-pipe and it is believed that snake gets charmed by its mellows sound. They are mainly worshippers of snake and they take it to families for invocation. There bamboo snake box is actually a mobile temple with live snakes. People offer money to the snake god. Kalbelia families also moved in villages and used to sing and dance before the family group. They dance with great joy during their life-cycle-events. Kalbelia girls sing wonderful songs . There still continues tradition of such songs. The subjects are related to life-cycle, nature and benevolent robbers. The male members play on Pungi or been which is made from a ground with two pipes inserted with single reeds. Others play membranophones like Dholah with two reeds and Khanjari as frame drum. Folk dances play an important part in the village life of Rajasthan. Snake dancers are usually dressed in black outfit. Their movements are remarkably swift and flexible. They dance to the tune of Pungi- a erophonic instrument having two tunes-one for the notes and the other for the drone. Another lady singer sing traditional songs and play ‘dafliʼ. This dance has its roots in tribal life and is essentially a community dance. कुचामनी ख्याल मे राजा हरिशचंद्र के नाटक की प्रस्तुति |
