Traditional Folk Songs from Bihar/Uttar Pradesh
Kajri and other Bhojpuri folk songs presented by Dr. Revati Sakalkar from Varanasi

Kajri is a folk song and dance presented by women from Uttar Pradesh and the adjacent regions during the rainy season. A Hindustani classical form, the lyrics of the songs often describe the longing of the maiden for her lover as the black monsoon cloud arrives in the summer skies
