The Kartik dance will be concluded along with Dadhi Leela on Tuesday, according to the Kartik Dance Preservation Committee.
नाचमा नरसिंह अवतारमा नृत्य गर्नेले दैत्यको वध तान्त्रिक विधिबाट गरिन्छ । ब्यूँझाउने पनि तान्त्रिकबाट नै हुन्छ । नरसिंह भएर नृत्य गर्ने तन्त्र जपेर नृत्य गरेका हुन्छन् । यसका लागि नुहाइधुवाई गरेर चोखो भई उपवास बस्नुपर्छ । दैत्यलाई ब्यूँझाउने भूमिका तलेजुका पुजारीले गर्छन् । नरसिंह नाचमा कृष्ण मन्दिरका पुजारीले अभिनय गर्ने चलन छ ।
सिद्धिनरसिंह मल्लले नेपाल सम्वत ७६१ मा यो नाचको प्रचलन सुरु गराएको संस्कृतिविद् बताउँछन् । सुरुमा ८ दिन देखाइने यो नाच मल्लका छोरा श्रीनिवासले लोक नाटक बा:थ:प्याँख थपेर १५ दिन पुर्याएका थिए । पछि फेरि श्रीनिवासका छोरा योगनरेन्द्रले माधवनर र उषाहरण गरी १५ दिन थपेर कात्तिक महिनाभरी नाच देखाउने प्रचलन बसाएको बताइन्छ ।
