Our Pillars

The Three Pillars of Rhythm

Dhol Department

Tasha Department

Dhwaj Department

The heartbeat of the pathak. Command the massive barrel drums that vibrate in the chests of thousands, requiring physical endurance and absolute rhythmic synchronization.

The sharp, piercing lead. Master the high-pitched kettle drums that dictate the tempo and command the crowd with lightning-fast wrist work and sharp focus.

The visual grandeur. Bear the towering saffron flags with pride and strength, executing synchronized maneuvers that paint Pune's streets in ceremonial colors.

We do not play for applause. We expect regular attendance at our Pune practice sessions, where sweat and grit forge our legendary synchronization.

No prior experience is required. Our veteran pathak members will train you from the ground up, demanding only your focus and willingness to learn.

Every strike of the drum is a tribute to our Ganeshotsav legacy. We carry ourselves with respect, honor, and deep community brotherhood.
