Our Approach
Propagating the energetic melodies of rhythmic Dhol Tasha in a world of unorganised noise
Our approach at Bajrang Yuva Dhol Pathak is to keep it authentic and original in its form and presentation. Our team follows the age-old practices and techniques, resulting in a mesmerising performance that is true to its roots and carries the essence of the culture it represents. Today's landscape is unfortunately characterised by heavy use of inappropriate beats and rhythm which do not convey joyous and happy energies at corresponding events. We aim to guide the misguided, instill discipline, awareness and a sense of cultural belonging while also creating a community of strong leaders across gender, caste, creed and social status.
