Recreation
Rajasthani Folklore.
The people of Rajasthan live life to the hilt. After hard work in the harsh
desert sun and the rocky terrain whenever they take time off they let
themselves go in gay abandon.
There
is dancing, singing, drama, devotional music and puppet shows and other
community festivities which transform the hardworking Rajasthani into a
fun-loving and carefree individual. Each region has its own folk
entertainment, the dance styles differ as do the songs. Interestingly
enough, even the musical instruments are different.
