The dholak is a classic double-headed hand drum widely used in Indian folk, devotional, and classical music. Featuring a barrel-shaped wooden body and two drumheads (one for bass tones, the other for sharp treble notes), it produces a vibrant, rhythmic sound central to many musical traditions. The shell is typically made from well-seasoned sheesham (rosewood) or mango wood. The smaller drumhead is crafted from goat skin for higher-pitched notes, while the larger head is usually buffalo skin for lower, resonant pitches. The drum is rope-laced and tensioned using steel rings or tuning pegs, giving fine control over pitch and playability. Popular in celebrations, religious events, and group performances, the dholak is treasured for its robust build and authentic Indian sound.
