Freed Posted June 19, 2005 Report Share Posted June 19, 2005 One for all the Bhangra lovers *taken from The Sikhs - T S Randhawa -2000 Note how the Dholi is in the middle and the dancers form a circle - this is the way bhangra was performed in fairs etc. - with the circle getting bigger as more people joined in - Now bhangra is more of a stage show - which is why it is performed faster and in a row - a straight line facing the audience with Dholi at one side. Note how all the men are wearing 'tambe' / 'Chaadre' / 'lungi' not pajamey. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never used to be like this for my grandparents. I guess a certain generation saw others breakdancing and riverdancing so they tried to come out with their own thing - a case of monkey see monkey do that has since gotten out of hand. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve never seen any apneh wear those skirt things either like in the video above until Bhangra went wild. Fashion has changed a lot in the last thirty years amongst Sikhs for some reason. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bhul chuk maaf No, the wrapped sheet thing the men in the spinning baton video were wearing. Why was he spinning a baton as well? I thought Bhangra dancers had that small drum on the end of a stick they were meant to hold? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
