An instant thought after hearing a Dhol Wala from my dorm room in Zamzama.
“His crisp yellow turban stands high up in the air, while he thrums all night long on the high streets of karachi; not just to entertain the rich but to earn himself a peice of bread to get his digestive track rolling.”
When i got to the window i realized this dhol wala was a bit different from what i had thought off. He was a pauper just like most dhol walas here in Karachi yet not dressed in yellow.
Is the yellow/orange outfit limited to the mendicant drummers outside shrines, who are oftenly hired for weddings?
