Shop - Bharatnatyam Ghungroos (Leather Belts – Sizes available)

Ghungroos are a set of several small metallic bells that are strung together using a thick cotton string and tied around the feet of Classical Indian Dancers as a rhythmic accompaniment. In another form, Ghungroos are arranged on a leather or cotton/velvet strap so as to make it more comfortable for the dancers. The Ghungroos create loud chiming sounds when tied on the feet of the dancers and shaken.

Ghungroos are also used as an independent instrument in folk or devotional music to add layers to the rhythm.

At Haribhau, we offer an exquisite variety of Ghungroos in rope or belt fitting.

This category of Ghungroos is popularly used by Classical Dancers and is attached to a padded Leather Belt. These could have 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 lines (rows) of Ghungroos attached to each belt depending on the dancer’s requirement.
