  • The Seraikella Chhau Dance
    The Seraikella Chhau Dance Text and Photographs by Mohan Khokar If the one-time princely state of Seraikella is known to the outside world, it is mainly because of the Chhau dance. For centuries the people here-rulers and commonersalike-havecherished and preservedthisextraordinarily stylised and aesthetically rich form of art. Dance traditions bearing the same name, Chhau, also obtain in nearby Mayurbhanj. in Orissa, and Purulia, in West Bengal, and certain parallel characteristics suggest a common origin for the three. Broadly, however, the Chhau of Seraikella can be said to be poetic and evocative, that of Mayurbhanj earthy and vibrant, and of Purulia robust and virile. Hara-Parvatt. 25 Seraikella lies in the heart of the Singhbhum district, formerly of Orissa and now of Bihar. Girdled as it is by the rolling Saranda and Bangriposi hills, it has for centuries maintained its own peculiar religious and cultural traditions, immune to influence from without. And these traditions find their fullest flower­ ing once every year, at the time of Chaitra Parva, the Spring Festival . Preceded by elaborate ceremonies and rituals, the Chhau is performed for four or five nights and witnessed by thousands from the city and around. The technique of the Chhau dance stems from the parikhanda system of exercise, an important part of the training of the sipahis, or warriors, of Seraikella. Pari means shield and khanda sword, and in the parikhanda the performers all hold swords and shields in their hands when doing the exercises. The parikhanda is generally performed in the early hours of the morning and, traditionally, only at one place-a stretch of raised land on the bank of the Kharkai river, known as Bhairavsal.
