Punjab

Music And Dance

The folk songs of Punjab are the songs of the body and soul. The joyous flight of birds, starry nights, sunny days and thundering clouds, signifying happiness and joy, are all reflected in folk songs. So ageless, are these songs that no one can claim their creation.

Punjab is the only place in India where the dances for men and women are not the same and are of varying forms. While the dances for men are the bhangra, jhoomer, luddi, julli and dankara, the ones for women are the giddha and kikli.
