北印度作为南亚文化的核心腹地，其民间音乐剧植根于雅利安文明与本土土著文化的交融沃土，承载着印度教、伊斯兰教等多元宗教的精神内核，以及农耕文明的生活智慧。

本文以旁遮普邦的伯塔克（Bhangra）、拉贾斯坦邦的卡塔克利（Katkari）、北方邦的乔舞（Chhau）等代表性民间音乐剧种为研究对象，结合宗教仪式、节庆庆典、社会变迁等语境，从艺术表达的本土特质、文化功能的双重维度、当代转型的张力博弈三个层面，系统剖析北印度民间音乐剧的发展逻辑与精神内核。研究认为，北印度民间音乐剧始终维系着“神圣叙事”与“世俗表达”的二元共生关系，其艺术形态的演变本质上是宗教信仰、族群记忆与社会结构相互作用的结果。

在现代化与全球化浪潮中，民间音乐剧既面临着商业化异化、传统技艺流失的挑战，也通过青年群体的创新实践、数字化传播实现了传统的创造性转化，成为北印度文化认同的核心载体与社会变迁的镜像。

As the core cultural region of South Asia, the folk musical dramas of North India are rooted in the fertile soil of the fusion between Aryan civilization and indigenous cultures, carrying the spiritual cores of diverse religions such as Hinduism and Islam, as well as the life wisdom of agrarian civilization. This article takes representative folk musical drama genres such as Bhangra from Punjab, Katkari from Rajasthan, and Chhau from Uttar Pradesh as the research objects, and combines the contexts of religious rituals, festival celebrations, and social changes to systematically analyze the development logic and spiritual core of North Indian folk musical dramas from three aspects: the local characteristics of artistic expression, the dual dimensions of cultural functions, and the tension and game of contemporary transformation. The research holds that North Indian folk musical dramas have always maintained a dual symbiotic relationship of "sacred narrative" and "secular expression", and the evolution of their artistic forms is essentially the result of the interaction between religious beliefs, ethnic memories, and social structures. In the waves of modernization and globalization, folk musical dramas not only face the challenges of commercial alienation and the loss of traditional skills, but also achieve the creative transformation of traditions through the innovative practices of the youth and digital dissemination, becoming the core carrier of cultural identity and the mirror of social change in North India.
