This form of dance is very famous amongst the Gujjar community. Performance of the dance is arranged on the marriage ceremony of a boy. This folk dance is very simple but charming. 

Male dances in their traditional costumes form a line with sticks in their hands and on the other side female dances change formations on the rhythm of Dhol. 

The dancers take a long step in forward direction, a small in backward direction then jump forward and start dancing. The dance is also accompanied by a folk song.
