Maga Ram

Maga Ram, 25, is working as a farmer and does the dancing as a recreational activity. He has a family of 5 people. His father and grandfather used to perform pad and that is where he got the interest from. Most of the shows he performs are local and within the nearby regions of Barmer. He wants to teach this art to his kids but is not sure whether it would feed them. He believes this form of art will disappear when there is no one to appreciate it.

Pabuji ki pad is a very sacred art form and Maga Ram believes that the world would be very much interested in getting to know more about it. He feels that a website would get them the desired fame and recognition. A few years from now, he sees himself performing in different parts of the country.
