<p>The article attempts to frame a picture of the "rodhighar", an institution found among the Gurungs of Nepal. Rodhighar is a nightly social gathering place, a semi-permanent dormitory where young girls and boys of the village congregate to sing, dance, talk, and joke. Rodhi is a culture which is seen as a form of entertainment where sophisticated forms of entertainment are lacking. It is also the institution which helps similarly aged boys and girls to meet and get to know one another. It has helped to preserve culture and to organize theater parties. The article discusses rodhighar types and its organizing mechanism. (Rajeev Ranjan Singh 2006-10-31)</p>
