One of the women participants generally sings the bolis and when the last but one line is reached by all of them, the tempo of the song rises and all start dancing. Women with embroidered duppattas and heavy jewelry participate in many numbers which are unrestricted which further exaggerate the movements. The movement is very quick of the feet in its faster parts that it is difficult for the audience to even wink till the tempo falls again. Giddha is a very vigorous folk dance and like other such dances it is very much an affair of the legs. Giddha for women is bright, colourful and energetic dance which is usually performed to rhythmic clapping and Boliyan. It majorly derived from an ancient ring dance, which was performed by Punjabi women at social gatherings. Giddha is popularly called a Lokh Naach for people in Punjab specifically for women.
