Archivo: A group of 'Husori' for the occasion of Assamese 'Bohag Bihu' in their traditional attire

Description: Husori : Village elders move from household to household singing Bihu carols called Husori and bless the household for the coming year. It is merriment time for the Assamese community. Husori is performed in the courtyards of villagers, which may have started during the Ahom rule. Initially, it was performed in the courtyard of Rang Ghar to entertain the king, then moved to the courtyards of officials and, finally, it gained popularity with the villagers as well. During the period when Vaishnavism was dominant, Husori assimilated the flavour of spirituality in its repertoire.
