The nagara or naghara is a drum used in India. There are several types of naghara, which is considered to be the lead instrument in mandir ceremonies and weddings. These are typically two drums, one treble and one bass and are played with sticks.
In Sikh traditions, the nagara is used as a large singular ceremonial drum in Gatka performances and was used historically in battle.
