भैरव नाच | Bhairab Dance 2081 Performed by two Bhairav, two Kumari & one Harisiddhi | Thimi

Five Devgans are associated with the Bhairav dance. Each of them performs the dances of five various deities. Of them, two perform as Bhairav, two as Kumari and one as Harisiddhi.
Among the two Bhairavs, the first is Prachanda Bhairav which is being performed by Ashok Prajapati, and the second is Batuka Bhairav being performed by Balmukunda Prajapati. Likewise, Aayush Prajapati and Shahil Prajapati are performing as Kumari, and Harisiddhi dance is performed by Trishal Prajapati.
Initially, the Thimi Bhairav dance used to be performed by a single leader and group of the Prajapati community. However, since 1988, two groups and two leaders have started performing this dance.
One dance group is led by Shree Gopal Prajapati and the other by Dinanath Prajapati, said Sankhadev.
This year, the dance group is led by Shree Gopal Prajapati. It is not known when and where the other group led by Dinanath will perform the dance. The dance steps of the two groups differ from each other.
Shree Gopal Prajapati and Krishna Bahadur Prajapati have taught dancers of Bhairav to revive the masked dance, Sankhadev said.
Elaborating on the rules the dancers need to follow, Sankhadev said that the dancers should not be touched by dogs, their legs should not be touched by other people, the mother and father of the dancers should not observe the performance, and the dancers’ family members should not watch it from their windows and balconies of their homes.
