Who they are
The Kolhati are a traditional community of Maharashtra, India, historically recognized for their folk performing arts, dance, and acrobatics. Speaking the Marathi language, many live on the margins of society and face strong stigma. With deep roots in Hindu traditions and local rites, they do not yet have established Christian communities among them.
