Tumbi

The Malwai Giddha is performed with an instrument with a high pitch called a tumbi, also referred to as a toombi. The instrument is often associated with Punjabi traditional music, but it is also widely used in Western Bhangra.

Chimta

Tongs, sometimes referred to as chimta, are a staple of Punjabi traditional dancing. With the inclusion of brass jingles, it has recently developed into one of the traditional South Asian instruments. Along with Gurbani Kirtan, it is employed in a variety of dancing styles.

Kato

A very common instrument utilized in a variety of dance styles, including Malwai Giddha, Bhangra, and others, is the Kato. The name Kato was chosen for this instrument simply because the design is akin to that of a squirrel, and the word itself means "squirrel" in the literal sense. The instrument is used in many dances because it represents people's enjoyment.

Sapp

Another Punjabi musical instrument, the Sapp, is utilized in a variety of dancing styles, including Malwai Giddha and Bhangra. Performing Malwai Gidha in Canada is a proud moment as people of different nations get exposure to Punjab's Folk Dance.
