Mujra is a form of dance originated by ‘Tawaif’ (courtesans) during the Mughal era which incorporated elements of the native classical Kathak dance onto music such as thumris and ghazals or poems of those from other Mughal cultures such as Bahadur Shah Zafar. Mujra was traditionally performed at mehfils and in special houses called “kothas”. During Mughal rule in the subcontinent, in places such as Lahore, the tradition of performing mujra was a family art and often passed down from mother to daughter amongst Muslim practitioners. The profession was a cross between art and exotic dance, with the performers often serving as courtesans amongst Mughal royalty or wealthy patrons. The same exotic dance is now brought to you to watch at the leisure of your home. 1. Lak Patle Nu Bahwan Wich Leke; 2. Tu Utte Te Mai Thalay; 3. Dil Diyan Lagiyan Nu Jaun Jaunda; 4.
