Influence of modernity in Deusi-Bhailo, original culture overshadowed
Baglung. In Deusi-Bhailo, which echoes during Tihar to the rhythm of the madal, khainjadi, and flute, the influence of modern songs, music, and technology has been increasing. As modern songs and sound systems have begun to replace traditional folk tunes, instruments, and collective singing and dancing, the originality of Deusi-Bhailo has been fading. Although the bustle of Deusi-Bhailo has increased in the squares and settlements of Baglung bazaar, the traditional style has started to be seen less. The trend of dancing to modern songs played on large sound systems has increased.
There was a time when Deusi-Bhailo was performed to the beats of the madal, flute, and khainjadi in the tunes of Sorathi, Maruni, Kaura, Yanimaya, Sunimaya, and Jhyaures. Through songs, the joys and sorrows of village life and social messages were presented. Now such original tunes and dances are disappearing.
Local resident Prem Shrestha said that the influence of Western culture and the younger generation's declining interest in original art and culture have weakened the identity of Deusi-Bhailo. Likewise, Rabiprasad Sharma said that traditional style is disappearing due to modern technology and imitation, and that its original form should be preserved.
