Bronze jingles are attached to the wooden handle. Nila Vaghmare’s daughter, Ratna Shankar Vaghmare, sings along and plays a tuṇtuṇe, a plucked monochord with a horsehead peg and a wooden cylindrical resonator. The cawandga and tuṇtuṇe were made in the shop of Abdul Karim Ismail Saheb, sitar makers of Miraj.
