  • Chamba Rumal is practised by women and passed on by mothers to their daughters as a generational art. The patterns adopted are local folklore, with stories of Krishna and from other epics like Ramayana and Mahabharata. Geet Govind, Ashtnayika (eight heroines), Gaddi Gaddan (the shepherd couple), and Shikar (snow-clad mountain) are some of the commonly seen storylines depicted through Chamba Rumal. The red colour (symbolizing fear) is used for Lord Shiva, Blue (the colour of love) is used for Lord Vishnu and Lord Krishna, and White depicts Lord Brahma.
