Pune Mandal Opts for Traditional Dhol Tasha Over DJs
In Pune, during the Navratri festival, one group decided to use traditional drums called dhol tasha instead of DJs.
This decision was made to avoid the loud music that can cause problems for some people.
The traditional drums create a lively atmosphere and draw big crowds.
This is different from what some other groups do, but it is meant to be more respectful and enjoyable for everyone.
A Pune Navratri Mandal replaced DJs with dhol tasha.
The change was made for the Sharda Navratrotsav in Raviwar Peth.
The Aadimaya Dhol Tasha Pathak performed at the Durga Devi idol installation.
The move was made in response to concerns about high-decibel music.
Residents appreciated the traditional music over DJs.
