Dhamail folk dance | Wedding dance Bangladesh | Sylheti song and wedding.
Dhamail, a variant of Dhamal, is a form of folk music and dance originated in Sylhet, Bangladesh. It is practiced in the erstwhile district of Sylhet in Bangladesh and in areas influenced by the Sylheti culture such as Cachar, parts of Shillong, Karimganj and Hailakandi Districts of Assam, parts of Tripura in India. It accompanies the use of mirdanga, kartals and many other musical instruments which are usually played by the males while the dance is being performed mainly in the wedding so you can call it as a Bangladeshi wedding dance. This dance form is similar to musical chairs, where one by one the dancers are removed by the dancers who can dance very fast as the beats gear up the speed. This dance form mainly relates the love of Radha and Krishna and the inner significance of this dance form is that the newly wedded couple must unite their souls in such fashion.
The song and dance is mainly performed by the womenfolk during marriages and other auspicious occasions. The ladies moves in circle, clapping their hands to the beat of the music. It is a traditional Sylheti wedding dance. Hope you like this video.
