Chimta (Punjabi: Over time, with the continuous addition of small brass jingles, it has developed into a typical South Asian percussion instrument. This instrument is also used in common Punjabi folk songs, Bhangra music, and the religious Sikh music known as Gurbani Kirtan. The player of the chimta is able to produce a chiming sound if he holds the joint of the instrument in one hand and strikes the two sides of the chimta together.
In common Punjabi folk songs, this instrument is also used.
This instrument can be played with both hands.
Chimta is also used in temples or congregations when singing kirtans and bhajans.
The Chimta is performed with the Dholak and is combined with the dholak at weddings.
