Every day a group of men from the tribe are dancing in the next village. Culminating celebration in this region takes place on the outskirts of Udaipur and within a few hours of dancing and playing a scene from tribal mythology, the most of them connected with life of a deity Rai Budiya. At the end of the procession holy figure of the goddess Gauri is thrown into the water. In the picture the actors involved in the dances and the audience. At the center of the square lance was dug in the ground, and around it are standing singers, musicians, actors. Some of them falls into a trance during the performance. Outside is standing the audience - men, women and children belonging to the tribe and other rural residents noticing what happens on stage. Some of them wear traditional clothing in white.
