while womens method of using there hands and butt is really attractive in Bundeli dance.One can see women Dance during marriage ceremony and other occasion.

During Dance, Music and songs people used thease instruments like the dholak (in diwari), nagada, Majeera, Harmonium and pakhawaj, tambura, wind instruments like the flute and shennai and several other rare instruments like the algoja, .

Diwari

Diwari dance in Hamirpur is performed every year during the festival of light called Deepawali in the end of October or November. Diwari dances are performed by acrobatic male groups dressed in colourful and unusual attire. 

In this connection the epic story goes that "in Gokul” when Lord Krishna raised Goverdhan Parvat  on his finger to save the local people,  they danced in joy. The dancers wear multi-coloured apparels and the chief dancer holds the peacock feathers in his hands and the rest stick those feathers in their half pants. 

The main instruments used in this dance are ‘Dholak’ and ‘Nagada’. The male dancers with long sticks show the marshal arts when the beats of drums inspire their energy and emotions. This dance is also performed as a ‘thanks giving’ after harvesting.

Today it remains simply as a folk dance. Raai means a mustard seed. When a mustard seed is thrown into a saucer, the seed starts to swings around. This way mustard seed moves in the saucer, the dancers also swings and when the singers sing the lyrics of the song the dancers follow the beats with foot steps. It is a duet and the competition is between the beats of the drum and foot steps of the dancer. The drummer and the dancer try to win each other and this competition leads towards the bliss.

Rivers

Yamuna, Betwa, Dhasan, Barma and Ken are the major rivers in hamirpur which plays a direct role in district economy. However some Rivers are dry or almost dry in summer. At Hamirpur average rain discharge of the Betwa is 700000 milion cusec. But it is almost nil in summer.

Hamirpur’s northern boundary is defined by the river Yamuna. It is broad and the flow of water is slower. It enters in Hamirpur at Mishripur. Bhauli,  Patura, Bhanaura and Surauli villages are situated across the river. Yamuna causes destruction during the eainy season as the district south banks are high. People considers it as a holy river. Their length in Hamirpur is proximatelt 77 Km and the water absorbing area is 250 Squire Km.

The Betwa known as Vetrawati in ancient times is the longest river of Hamirpur.

Bundeli is an Indo-Aryan language language of Western India which related to or equal to Braj Bhasha is widly spoken in hamirpur.

It was the literary language in North India until the 19th century. " Saaji chaturang sain ang mai umang dhari sarja shiwaji jang jeetan chalat hai" 

It is the most common Hindi dialects spoken in this area. It consists of several sub dialects in area by area. Although Bundeli is spoken in whole of Bundelkhand yet one can find the local variation of Bundelkhndi  In mahoba, Charkhari, and Ragaul. It is said that there is difference in speaking language in each and every village like the difference of the taste of water in each and every well. But whatever changes may be the language is called Bundeli.


Bundeli is partially different from Hindi. It has a vast variety of slangs and transformed Hindi words. For example. 

"Likhe ka to neek hi likh raho ho apne jile ke bare ma. Lekin sasur angreji ke maare jyada padhaiya nahi bhitat."

Local dialects and sub-dialects are very common in each and every portion of hamirpur. In the western portion of Hamirpur district, a peculiar speech form known as ‘Lodhiyon ki boli’ is used and 'Mahobahi Bhasa' is called the sub dialect. You will find in Hamirpur there are a lot of variations in conversation in some villages between local people is quite difficult to understand.
