Anandi Devi & Santram

Chappeli /Naach Geet

Essence

The relationship between a Jija and Saali, a man and his wife's sister, is shown to be a very special one and there is often a romantic tinge in their interaction. In his song too, the Jija and Saali are talking of going to the jungle for cutting grass. In the structure of the dialogue between them is woven a description of the rivers, jungles and land of the mountains.
