Bhattu Kalan - Culture and Handicrafts

Culture and Handicrafts

Saangs, a theatrical arts performance by the locals of Bhattu Kalan. The speciality of this play is a mixture of story explanation and dance according to situations in between. A marvellous show to enjoy, but these arts are degraded and lack of interest due to commercialisation. In addition to this Teej Dance, gangore, Chhatti dance etc. are also famous.

Phulkari is a famous handicraft art of Bhattu kalan people. Housewives and women form a group and participate in making phulkari designs. The design is embroidery of floral arts on shawl's and scarfs, which are most commonly used by women for daily use.

Famous quotes containing the word culture:

    I wish to speak a word for Nature, for absolute freedom and wildness, as contrasted with a freedom and culture merely civil,—to regard man as an inhabitant, or a part and parcel of Nature, rather than as a member of society. I wish to make an extreme statement, if so I may make an emphatic one, for there are enough champions of civilization: the minister and the school committee and every one of you will take care of that.
    Henry David David (1817–1862)
