The Ghoomar India Folk Festival, a seamless confluence of culture, tradition, and purpose, is the brainchild of Dr. Mamta Ajit Singh, Director of the Women Entrepreneurs International Chambers of India. Alongside Rehma Nahar, Swati Thakkar, and Shilpa Jain, she envisioned a celebration that not only honors tradition but also supports meaningful social causes.
Each act was a brushstroke on the grand canvas of India’s cultural splendor, as the Ghoomar India Folk Festival unfolded in all its regal magnificence. The event featured a mesmerizing Ghoomar dance marathon, soul-stirring live concerts by renowned Rajasthani bands, and the awe-inspiring Talwar Baaji, performed by women from the royal Rajput community. The #RampforCause segment showcased the elegance of Rajput bridal and groom attire, bringing the richness of India’s heritage to life. The festival reached its crescendo with Padma Shri Maame Khan’s iconic performance, his rendition of Coke Studio’s “Chaudhary” transforming the courtyard into a living tribute to Rajasthan’s folk traditions. The evening was further elevated by the presence of celebrity guests, including Jyoti D Tommar, National Award Winner for Ghoomar in Padmaavat; Devesh Mirchandani, a renowned dance choreographer; and Naitik Nagda, Mumbai Garba’s dhol king. Adding depth to the celebration, MLA Ram Kadam delivered an inspiring speech on women empowerment, reinforcing the festival’s broader impact.
