In India, giving shagun (a small cash gift) to the wedding drummer, also called the dholwala, is a common tradition. It shows appreciation for the energy and music they bring to the celebration. Guests or family members usually give this money while dancing or at the end of the event. A video had gone viral in which a man was seen enthusiastically dancing to the dholwala and even handing them money. The man’s distinguishing style in how he handed over the money to the dholwala was grabbing social media attention.
The video opens with a man holding two Rs 500 notes in his mouth and asking a dholwala to take them out. After a few attempts, the dholwala gets one out. The man then approaches another dholwala and asks him to do the same. The second dholwala was seen trying quite hard. After numerous fruitless efforts, he finally extracts the note from the man’s mouth. The enthusiastic man then dances his heart out to the rhythmic beats they play.
“Dholwala bhi soch raha hoga uncle ji aaj full mood mai hai,” the caption to the now-viral video reads. Meanwhile, a note on the video states – “Uncle ne Paytm uninstall kardiya.” The video has now been deleted. Also, the details about the video were unknown.
Shared on April 30, the video had garnered over 18,000 likes.
In 2022, a video went viral in which a man offered a shagun to the person playing the dhol using Paytm. A video of the humorous occurrence was uploaded to X (formerly Twitter).
The short video showed the man twirling his phone around the groom’s head in a ceremonial manner before giving money to the dholwala via Paytm. According to the caption, the incident occurred in Bihar. “How to use technology, only Indians know very well,” read the post.
#Paytm Karo #Bihar Shaadi me bhi
The video prompted a deluge of laughing emojis in the comments section.
A user wrote, “UPI made life easy,” and another commented, “Digital India in a nutshell.”
“I love this digital culture,” a user on X said.
“Mera Desh Badal Raha Hai,” Another person jokingly commented.
This simple act of giving shagun to the wedding drummer is a cherished norm in India. It symbolises gratitude for the music that brings life to the celebration, ensuring that the rhythm of happiness continues unbroken.
