Guwahati, Assam, India: In the last few weeks, I had different opportunities to watch the Hojagiri dance from Tripura. Everytime, I feel spellbound by this magical dance. Today's images have a Hojagiri dancer from the "Bharat Lok Parva" festival.

Beautiful snaps.
ReplyDeleteMust have been an awesome performance.
They have so much to reveal to us via their culture!!
This dance is all about balancing things on the head or arms or hands, thus upper part of the dancers' bodies remain still and the lower half moves but very gently. This gives a special charm to the dance.
