‘Jhitku- Mitku’ - Art of Chhattisgarh

A large part of the folklore in India is based around heart touching love stories many of which seem to have an eternal appeal. This, though generally true of almost all the parts of the country has some really poignant examples in Punjab, Sikkim, Chhattisgarh and some other parts of the country with simple ways of living and a passion for living. The eternal love ballad of ‘Chhatisgarh’ revolves around ‘Jhitku’ and ‘Mitku’ a simple boy and girl who happened to be love struck in times past.
