ghungroo

Ghungroo are small metallic bells worn by dancers, particularly in Indian classical dance forms like Bharatanatyam, Kathak, and Odissi. They are typically attached to the ankles and create rhythmic sounds that enhance the performance, adding to the music and expression of the dance. The tinkling of ghungroo not only highlights the dancer's footwork but also serves as a cultural symbol, embodying traditional art forms. The use of ghungroo dates back centuries and is integral to both the aesthetic and auditory experience of Indian dance.
