Believed to be divine, the Pena is considered very pure and a few of the Meitei even worship it. Pena, the word itself does not signify only as a mere musical instrument, but as a song and dance too.
Once a full time performer, 63-year-old Nameirakpam Jilatombi of Kwakeithel Haorokchambi in Imphal West has shifted focus to making traditional instruments of Manipur with the mission to preserve them for the future generations.
