Summary edit
| Description |
English: Raai Dance is the traditional folk dance of the Bediya tribe in the Bundelkhand region of Madhya Pradesh, India. A man dressed in the traditional attire of a woman performs this dance in front of a picture of goddess Saraswati (pictured here) along with a troupe of live musicians.
Raai means mustard seed. When a mustard seed is thrown into a saucer, the seed starts to swings around. The way mustard seed moves in the saucer, the dancers also swings and when the singers sing the lyrics of the song the dancers follow the beats with footsteps. It is a duet and the competition is between the beats of the drum and footsteps of the dancer. The drummer and the dancer try to win each other and this competition leads towards the bliss.
