🌟 Performance Overview

Feel the ground vibrate and the heart thump as Limassol Dhol Tasha Pathak brings the electrifying spirit of Maharashtra to Namaste Cyprus! Rooted in ancient folk traditions, the Dhol (deep, thunderous double-headed drum) and Tasha (crisp, high-pitched drum) unite to create a field of rhythm you don’t just hear—you feel.

The set opens with Ganesh Vandana, invoking Lord Ganesha’s blessings to remove obstacles and usher in success, then surges into Mahakaal beats—a powerful, devotional crescendo that lifts the energy of the entire venue. This is community music at its best: inclusive, intergenerational, and irresistibly participatory.

Be ready to clap, sway, and let the pulse carry you—this isn’t just a performance; it’s a procession of joy.
