People of all ages gather around the bonfire in gay clothes arid begin to dance joyfully. In the bonfire, sugarcane stalks and parched rice goods are thrown. The men folk perform their foot-taping `Bhangra’ dance. They move to the beat of the dholaks but the women enact the more gentle `Gidda’ dance. People offer rewards such as peanuts, popcorn, podded rice and other sweets to one another. Lohri is considered as a good luck day for farmers.
