Lavani is the foremost among the various forms of song and dance which are part of the Tamasha, a Marathi dramatic form that flourished in western Maharashtra with Pune as its centre. Lavani are composed on a wide range of subjects, but most have a stark erotic content along with a tongue in cheek humour. The adaakari or the seductive glances, accompanied by charming movements, and interaction between the artistes and the spectators is what draws large audiences to the Tamasha Theatres. The audiences usually join in the music and dance with whistles and encores. The technique of making an entry onto the stage by the lavani dancers is very interesting. They enter with their back to the audience, raising the `pallu` of their nine-yard sarees above their heads and suddenly turn their heads to give the audience the first glimpse of their faces.
