Manjira is a pair of small cymbals used widely in devotional singing, Chang is linked strongly with festive folk music such as Holi songs, and Khadtal is a clapper-like rhythm instrument. These instruments belong to Rajasthan's folk soundscape, but they are not the specific recital instrument for Devnarayanji ki Phad.
