Maruni Dancers Sikkim

Summary[edit]

Description
English: One of the oldest and most popular dances of the Nepalis. Although this dance is associated with the festival of Tihar(Tyohar) or Diwali, because of its popularity it is performed even on occasions like marriages. Tihar is celebrated to mark the return of the Hindu god Rama from exile. During this festival Maruni dancers richly dressed in colourful costumes and resplendent with ornaments and nose rings go on a house to house visit. The dancers are usually also accompanied by a clown called "Dhatu waray". Sometimes Maruni dances are performed to the accompanist of the nine instrument orchestra known as "Naumati Baja".
