इस लोक-संगीत का प्रचलन शतकों पहले राजस्थान के ऐतिहासिक राज-दरबारों से हुआ माना जाता है। उस समय के लोक कलाकार राजा तेजाजी, गोगाजी तथा राजा रामदेवजी की गौरव गाथा का बख़ान करते हुए 'माँड' गाया करते थे। इस शैली का एक लोकगीत जो अत्यधिक लोकप्रिय हुआ वह है - 'केसरिया बालम आवो सा, पधारो मारे देस'।

Very well played Sardar Sahab, you are really a talent

[varunbhuta]

very soulful...your instrument has a wonderful tone to it and you play beautifully...

I love this composition and must have heard at least 15 to 20 attempts of Kesariya Balam by other people on flute, veena and other instruments but I must say I liked your's the best...amazing work...

Excellent! Another beautiful "Dor-inspired" song.

[varunbhuta]

"Dor-inspired"???

This is a Rajasthani folk song...

[manavk]

Varun ji - Thank you for your kind words.

"dor-inspired" :

This song is also in the sountrack of the movie : "Dor"

and I have another video of another song from that movie - hence the reference.

[dhavlena]

Hello - by "Dor-inspired" I meant that this is

where this westerner heard it. Although I would very much like to be more knowledgable as concerns this music, not much is played here.

Apologies for my lack of knowledge,

[varunbhuta]

Hi dhavlena...No need for apologies...

I was just a little miffed at your reference to Dor as the inspiration for the song whereas this is an age old folk song...it is really good to see a "westerner" show such interest in Indian music...as an Indian I appreciate and thank you for your interest...

[varunbhuta]

I know this song was used in the movie Dor but I was replying to Dhavlena's comment about the song being Dor inspired while you've already mentioned hearing it on SA RE GA MA PA and playing it since
