Dindi dance is a folk dance that is prevalent in Maharashtra. This dance is performed using a small drum called dindi, which is somewhat like the “Tamate”. This dance is performed usually on the Ekadshi day in the month of Kartik according to the Hindu calendar.

This dance depicts the playful attitude of Lord Krishna and is a religious devotional dance form. The necessary musical background is given by the Mridangam player and a vocalist who constitute a team of musicians. Male dancers perform on this music and rhythm and is characterised by dancing in a circle which is preceded by falling in two rows facing each other.
