Khanjari

Khanjari a traditional musical instrument, played along with other traditional musical instruments in folk songs and dances like jari, ghatu etc.

It is a drum-like instrument, usually made of neem or jackfruit wood, one side of which is covered with animal membrane, while the other side is left uncovered. A section of the wooden side is cut away, and a pair of metal discs set into it. When played, the metal discs make a clanking sound. Meanwhile the player strokes the membrane with his finger or strikes it with his hand.
