Dance, an expression of happiness, pleasure and excitement, accentuates many hidden emotions which satisfy the inner self, the soul. Folk dances, a rich cultural heritage, represent the traditions of our land and who we are. These are events to witness and always cherish. Dr Kiran Kapoor’s extensive research and informative narration on the folk dances and its colourful costumes document the essence of the cultural legacy of Rajasthan, so that with the winds of change it is not lost forever. There is a need to reconnect folk dance, their costumes and culture with our patrimony so that the pristine glory is restored and it becomes aspirational to celebrate the joys of dancing, the joy of life. This book will be of immense use to those who are curious to know about the cultural heritage and those who have a passion for clothing in exotic styles for fashion for fusion. It is an effort to connect the glorious heritage of the past to the present in an idealized future.
