Notes: Lavani folk art is a traditional art form in which women dancers wearing brightly coloured sarees, perform on stage before live audience. This indigenous art form gained popularity during the Peshwa era in the 18th century. There are various sub-genres of Lavani. The most popular among them is the Shringarik or the erotic kind.
