Manufactured by Kalmi, Big Dogs gained important international traction, reaching the Billboard Global 200 Chart and Billboard Hot 100 top 10. Now, if you love big dogs, the possibility is too much that you will be bent on another bangar from the pair.

In Big Dogs, the singer shows the “Well of Death”, a stunt that almost every Indian has seen in the fairs. But in this latest track, he takes it to a position, in which at least seven traditional Indian folk performances in the video are already going viral a few hours after release.

Let’s take a look at them, one by one:

1. Kalaripayattu: The oldest form of martial arts in the world

Kalaripayattu, often called Kalari, is one of the oldest martial arts in the world, with roots of roots over more than 3,000 years.

Developed in Kerala, it combines strike, kick, grappling, weapons and even healing techniques. This art form was once essential for warriors and kings, especially during the time of Chera and Chola dynasties, when the fight demanded both physical skills and agility. The training is harsh, in which students begin at the age of seven, learn to learn the swords, spears, and even malignant urumi (a flexible whip -like sword).

Despite his decline during British rule, Kalari has made a strong comeback in modern times, discovered a place in cinema, choreography and self -defense techniques.

The movements are often compared to a beautifully choreographed dance, but don’t be foolish – every step is designed to strike with accuracy. Today, it is kept alive by the dedicated schools in Kerala, and if you ever get a chance, it is no less than mesmerized to see a live performance.

2. Mardaani sports, fearless fighters of Marathas

Even though the video features a woman performing martial arts, the mardani game is a martial that is quite literally translated into a “manli game” or “war game”.

This art is as fierce as the warriors ended it. Developed in Maharashtra, this weapon-based fighter form was integral to the Marathas, especially under the leadership of Chhatrapati Shivaji.

The training includes the mastery of swords, lathis (long rods), daggers and even unique weapons called ‘Bhala’ (a type of spear).

Even today, art is kept alive because he is taught in “Talims” (training centers) in Maharashtra, which makes Shivaji Maharaj’s martial arts heritage popular. It is also said that the Maratha Rani, Rani Tarabai encouraged women’s training in the masculine game, and is now practiced by both men and women as art.

3. Gatta: Sikh martial arts

Gatka is not just a martial arts – it is a spectacle of strength, speed and devotion. Born from Punjab, this Sikh war form was developed by warriors of the time of Guru Gobind Singh. This includes a surprising performance of flexible weapons such as swords, rods, shields and even cycles.

Practitioners Beautiful yet run in deadly patterns, spinning and striking in a way that seems almost choreographers, yet the war remains.

Gutka was once an important part of Sikh military training, but today, it is done in Sikh festivals!

4. Thang-Ta: From the Northeast Land

Thang-Ta is a traditional martial art of Manipur, which literally turns into ‘sword and spear’. It is a martial arts that once defined the warriors of Manipur.

Dating back back during the days of kings and tribal wars, this combat form is not only about cruel strength, it is a mixture of precise, agility and breathtaking liquidity.

The practitioners mastered the art of the battle of the sword, fight the spear, some claim that here, the spear is powerful than the sword. During the colonial rule, Thang-Ta was almost lost as the British had banned their practice, which feared his ability in the rebellion. However, today, art is considered in Manipur, Haryana and parts of Jammu and Kashmir.

Funny facts: Till 1985, Thang-Taan’s knowledge was not shared with non-meteorous people.

5. Chendamelum – Kerala Dhadak

Apart from martial arts – ‘Run It Up’ also has Kerala’s Rhythm – Chendema.

This powerful collision is characterized by ‘Chanda’ (a cylindrical drum), an inseparable part of the temple festivals, processions and cultural ceremonies in Kerala. Beats begin at a slow pace, gradually forming an electrification in a crescent.

Traditionally performed in religious settings, Chendmail is more than just music; This is a spiritual call, an invitation to feel the divine through sound, the origin of which is traced for centuries.

6. Parai and Urumi, drums that echo through Tamil Nadu

Another musical instrument that has traditionally been part of Tamil Nadu, which was painted in the song, was mercury and Urumi. One of the oldest drums in India, mercury, historically was played on everything from battlefields to village celebrations. Commanding beats were used loudly, soldiers were used to rally, declare important events and even perform rituals.

On the other hand, Urumi is a unique hour -shaped drum that produces a deep, almost compelling sound, often played during religious festivals and folk performances.

Over time, these tools have become powerful symbols of resistance and tradition. Once associated with the lower castes and marginalized communities, alien drumming saw a revival, broke the obstacles and regain its place in the mainstream culture through such videos.

7. Vem

Now, drawing mainstream attention to films like ‘Kantara’; Hanumankanda, a ritual art, where the artist converts into a living deity, also shows the Vam. With wide face paint, headdress, and intense druming, the dancer symbolizes souls and gods, offers blessings and even responds to prayers.

It has been performed in Kerala for more than 1,500 years and has around 400 forms, of which HMK shows three forms in its video. Garuda Parva.
