All the stupid Muchad(having mustache) thakurs seem to take pride in their stupid custom of keepin bednis and following the regressive and orthodox custums exploiting the bedni women and all women 👎🏼(well I think they are disrespectful and cheating their wives as Sugni pointed out). They seem to have changed the Rai dance initially only performed in temples and brought it to their homes.
Vikram who has stayed in the city has come back does not sport a mustache( LIKE THE OTHER THAKURS IN THE AREA WHO TAKE PRIDE IN IT😆😆) is quite humane, sympathetic considerate merciful till now as he is shown so the other thakurs ask him to keep quiet when he intervines saying he lives in the city and does not sport a mustache like them so has no pride😆😆 in being a thakur and their traditions gosh their reasoning😡
A news item from 2007
Bhopal, May 13: In the wake of certain sections describing Bundelkhand region's folk dance as obscene and demanding a ban on it, some experts have said branding the traditional art as indencent was not appropriate.
A magazine published by the Madhya Pradesh Government's Public Relations Department carries views and opinions of experts and critics of the traditional art.
Bundeli Boli poet Madhav Shukl Manoj pointed out that 'Rai' dancers were abducted by Britishers from freedom fighter Madhu Khushwah's programme in 1842.
The incident had brought members of Thakurs, Gonds and Lodhi communities together resulting in a public opposition.
Mr Shukl feels that the dance had a contribution in freedom struggle.
Critic Kapil Tiwari questioned the so-called morality of urban people, who seem to be prejudiced towards women and sexuality.
He said such people were unable to accept erotic beauty as a part of literature, art and culture.
However, folk life did not view life and creation as decent or indecent and accepted life as it is.
Poet and author Shobharam Srivastava said 'Rai' dancers present an echanting performance on poet Isuri's 'Fag' creations during 'Fagun'.
'Rai' has a deep religious significance in Bundelkhand.
Recently, dissent had been voiced by leaders of Madhya Pradesh's main opposition Congress -- including senior party leader Digvijay Singh and Vitthalbhai Patel -- regarding 'Rai' dance being performed on April 20 during a government-organised mass marriage at Sagar district's Garhakota on the occasion of Akshay Tritiya.
PS I personally have nothing against the mustache but this scene and dialogue was very amusing for me😉
