Casting spell on the onlookers, one can see, eminent artistes and local folk performers of Rajasthan that compliment the charisma of euphoric dancers who swirl their skirts and move in circles untiringly, fire dancers who balance burning lamps on their foreheads while dancing and crackers and fireworks that takes the message of happiness and joyousness to the skies.
