BIHU DANCE
Bihu Dance
The Bihu Dance from Assam is one of the most colourful folk dances of India. With the advent of spring comes the Bohag Bihu or Rongali Bihu, when Nature,like a young woman, blossoms into a radiance of light, beauty and colour. The Bohag Bihu not only ushers in the Assamese New year, but also marks the sowing season and the season of Marriage. In fact, the dance has its roots in an earlier fertility cult. It is in this atmosphere that young girls and boys perform the Bihu Dance, inviting each other to the land of romance.
